They need to show the Wellstone Memorial, and then Reagan's funeral for a contrast of how it is done.
Spotsy was going -- don't know if alone or with FReepers
Clinton want a kegger and some broads.
I don't think so...
I just looked it up and "remains" means "a corpse".
May God sustain and embrace the wife of President Reagan, Nancy Reagan, our wonderful ex - First Lady (and truly, forever one of the best First Ladies) of exceptional grace under fire, and may God Bless America as she grieves the passing of an extraordinary leader.
Brit's now saying the plane was a Kentucky state police plane!
I hope they have lots of water!
Crowd estimates?
Shouldn't surprise you. It doesn't surprise me at all. Consider the source. THEY hated President Reagan, and they still do. We should remember the comments made by Dan Rather, about the coverage being "too much" - this coming from a man who has waxed episodically about Clinton ad infinitum. If it was THEIR guy, they'd never shut up. But the Republicans, well, that's a different matter entirely, isn't it.
I cannot stand Chris Matthews so I mute the TV everytime he speaks.
I cannot stand the graphic at the bottom on Fox -- herse leaves for the Capitol. What moron is running their graphics that take up the whole bottom of the screen?
A lot of people standing in front of the WH and more people joining the crowd.
From my tv it looks huge.....I bet you are feeling just as bad as me that we are not there. ARGHHHHH
Don't know .. I'm sticking with FNC
I hate CNN and can't stand Chris Mathews
LOL! Sink, I am just teasing you,
but how do you know so much about
caskets and the like?
