I saw Rudy a couple of months ago. He does leave you feeling very uplifted.

President Reagan is apparently waiting in a room and is going to enter the Rotunda in a few minutes.
The people in line, in the Rotunda are NOT going to be cleared out as they have waited their time in line and deserve their moment also.
This is another indication of just how humble and great President Bush is...he will not inconvenience all these people just for his own timing...
Here he comes, with his beautiful wife Laura. Striding up to the casket, they kneels and say a prayer. He touches the flag, they stand and walk away.
Simple and dignified.

He knows people are waiting. I loved the way he smoothed the flag. Laura looked very sad,,she knows one day this will be her lot.

It looked to me like President Bush got tears in his eyes the moment he walked into the room..and he looked even more so when he put his hands on the casket. He loves President Reagan.

Remember he has the eulogy tommorrow.
also every second he is there that means 1/60th of 5000 people will not get to pay their respects.

Good catch.
He's heartbroken.
And it's obvious.

They said their prayer and then left to allow others to have their time, unlike the Monkey from MA who had to make it about his photo opportunism.
