Great eulogy by Cheney. Reagan had the power to make us feel good about ourselves, even in his passing.

"Open the door to a globalzied world" I thought that was strange myself.

If either of you happen across a transcript of that globalization prayer, would you let me know? I haven't found it yet using Google.

A very nice ceremony overall. I just wish there had been room to mention Jesus Christ in all that.

This is Reagan's ceremony. I don't think I ever heard him mention Jesus Christ in a single speech ever. He always mentioned God and was inclusive of all believers in the One Almighty. He was even respectful towards Pantheists in the speech Drudge posted.

Christian chaplains are sensitive to the Jews and those of other faiths who may be in attendance.

"God" is perfectly fine, don't you think?
