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

[Professional Engineer]

Oh no, the Battle Hymn. Here I go again...

You weren't the only one. Trying not to embarass myself here in the office. Awesome rendition. I hope I can find a recording.

[Militiaman7]

That's the truth, what a wonderful job he did.

[Romish_Papist]

Though I disagree with the song's structure itself, it's being sung brillantly. For anyone wanting to know more about Dr. Tynan, here you go: http://www.drronantynan.net/

That was a very uplifting version of the Battle Hymn. Triumphant.


I can't hear that old hymn and not cry, I don't care who is doing it. It speaks of so much, that we don't see or have become to blind to see.
God Bless Pres. Regan and his family. OH NO>>>>now they are doing Amazing Grace..........I can't take this. I'll be a blubbering idiot by the end of this. ALL so so touching.

[CurlyBill]

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

I really don't see much in the way of politics here. Margaret Thatcher came pretty close, but kept to the big picture and global issues as opposed to partisan comments. This is a great departure from the Paul Wellstone funeral.

[veronica]

A maginficent spectacle. Today, I cried. GWB gave a spectacular eulogy, as did Thatcher.

[Tarantulas]

Who died and made you moderator?

Ronald Reagan died. This is a thread about him, not a bashing thread. People have asked several times to keep it nice but some don't pay attention.

[GOPyouth]

This is not a celebration of Michael Reagan.

[Stopislamnow]

Does anyone know if Cspan is going to re-broadcast this?

Can't find it on thier schedule and only just got in right before the Hymm.

[Quix]

THANKS.

GREAT AMAZING GRACE RENDITION.

Lots of tears this service. Thankfully. Been a while.

[Cold Heat]

OH MY!

I am losing it.

[goodnesswins]

The REST of us on this thread who are sick of having to skim through the prattle about the c's. Save it for later or start another thread.

[Bahbah]

"As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free."

I am not changing it. I refuse. Our guys are dying right now to make men free.

[KosmicKitty]

I'm sure that seemed the case, but I'm also sure that wasn't the case. No one has a perfect childhood or gets loved just the way they feel that they should have been.

[samantha]

I second that!!! Gore looks good,the Fords look pretty good,Lady Thatcher looks good from what we can see. The clinton"s look like they got no sleep last night. Rosalyn and Jimmah even look good.

[Abigail Adams]

What an amazing singer, and a beautiful rendition of Amazing Grace!

[just me]

Maybe in President Reagan's passing he can tear down another wall. The one that divides America. The Liberal Communist and Christian Conservatives.

[mlmr]

My favorite of the American Hymns.

[carton253]

If you think that...then there is nothing to be done about your silly way of looking at things....

[television is just wrong]

For two Irishmen, we sure married up...

At this the Clintons looked at each other and both though, "We sure married down."

I Agree with that!
