LIVE THREAD--Reagan State Funeral Ceremony: Lying in State at the Rotunda (6/11/04)

[Xenalyte]

I have not seen him yet. Maybe Morticia and Gomez are having a dinner party.

[Clara Lou]

You're wrong. He's not a man.
Worse than that-- I've dishonored all of the 4-legged furry creatures around the world that work so hard.

[PigRigger]

"Both Thatcher & Bush expressed the thought that we have Reagan as an example. Reagan, obviously, was a leader..."

Many pundits this week have attempted to diminish his leadership by stating he was just a man that found himself in the middle of an historic period of time that was inevitable in its occurrence.

I've always felt that many leaders will find themselves in situations such as these; it takes a real leader to understand when they are there and how to make the most of them.

Yes, President Reagan made the most of them. May God Bless his soul.

[pettifogger]

(Like Bush) "Reagan did not need to be President . . . " (danforth)

[Catspaw]

If Tynan is going to sing again, I'm opening the next box of kleenex, just in case.

[the Deejay]

"Did Clinton bring his book into the service?"

Yeah, but someone thought it was his Bible.

[mass55th]

Oh please, get real.

[adaven]

I am sitting here at work, watching a live stream, a 33 year old man, and am having a heck of a time holding back the tears. What wonderful speakers we've seen today.

[Petronski]

"He wasn't consumed by himself. He didn't need to be president to be a complete person."

Wow, were those indirect digs at Clinton and Gore, respectively? My goodness.

[longtermmemmory]

lost it when Priest thanked nancy for sharing him.

Said he only needed nancy, saw her actually thinking and remembering him.

[antivenom]

They allowed Gore to attend without his straight jacket.

Must have increased his meds...

I think Bill took them...

[Xenalyte]

No make up? I do hope she wore her underpants.

And I hope we don't find out, one way or the other.

[radiohead]

George W. Bush just got himself re-elected.

From your mouth...

[My2Cents]

I agree.

[johnb838]

I heard some moron on the Alan Colmes show last night complaining about how the pubs have politicized the death.

[Fawnn]

That's just how he holds his head sometimes. (I've often wondered if he has better hearing in one ear than the other.)

[Ciexyz]

Rev. John Danforth: Wow! He can come preach in my church anytime.

Talking about Reagan: "He didn't need to be President to be a complete human being." Yes! (Is Hillary listening?!)

[FireTrack]

Isn't this the guy that Britt warned us about?

[Jewels1091]

I'm waiting for clinton to fall out of his seat...or fall sideways...wouldn't that be great leading news story tonight...

[hattend]

George W. Bush just got himself re-elected.

From your typing fingers to God's (and America's) eyes/ears.
