I thought the Senate's chaplain gave a lovely benediction.

My wife reads lips, and told me that Nancy said, "I love you Ronnie" while she was patting the casket.

Thats wonderful...

Oh, please don't post what the DU dolts are saying, I'm disgusted even thinking about them at this moment.

I agree. This is not the time to give attention to those mean children of all ages.

I didn't know Patti was born on October 21! That's MY birthday too! I think she looks good, considering what she has been through the past few weeks.

I know two people born on October 21... one is as sweet as can be, and the other is probably the most hateful person you can imagine.

There was a very lovely article about President Reagan's last years.

His former White House physician wrote it. He had remained good friends and even would stay with Reagan for a week here and there so Nancy could have a break.

Anyway, the doctor said he remained sweet and cheerful throughout. It made me feel better. I'll find the link for you later.

Chin up, that face of grief, was also the face of pride.

That was a beautiful comment.

CSPAN 2 aired Carter's malaise speech speech last night, and, since I have no life, I watched it with a morbid curiosity, and, as sink and you have noted, peanut brain never used the word.

Here come the pundits......

THrough my haze of tears, "pundits" looked like "pundi" (pund-eye). Sort of how Rush talks about "college camp-eye".
