LIVE THREAD--Reagan State Funeral Ceremony: Lying in State at the Rotunda (6/11/04)
I hope the Clintons don't show up,and I hope Eddie Haskel(Kerry) stays far away from the family. My stomach gets queasy remembering the hateful attitude they had for both President and Mrs. Reagan. Imagine the whole world is watching and getting a taste of how a truly free society mourns and celebrates a great leader.
God bless Mr. Gorbachev. His presence this week has been classy and incredibly positive, and having, for lack of a better way of phrasing it, a 'Zell Miller' effect on the whole thing.
my boss is gone but I am about to go snap his little snippy head off.
No, that wasn't your "gross paraphrasing". I heard it, also.
It was a direct slam and tragic insult to a great man.
People aren't stupid. If justice and judgement lightning finally strikes, I wouldn't want to be seated next to them either.
Yes, and I lost it right there. What a gallant lady.
Where is Raisa Gorbachev? Did she die?
I was probably more moved by Maggie's curtsy than by anything else that day. Britons only curtsy and bow to royalty.
Bright and sunny here in Socal. It'll burn off... I checked the weather service. It's going to be a beautiful Ceremony tonight. Wish I had HDTV.
Man! Who would have thought that 25 years ago, 2 advesaries - Lady Thatcher and Gorby - would be sitting next to each other at Reagann's funeral. Incredible.
"Today's Russia might not be evil but yesterday's USSR was"
yes, indeed it was, something we cannot let future generations forget.
Thanks .. I bookmarked them
LIVE WEB feed at msnvideo.msn.com for fellow cubicle bound...
They just showed Bubba and Hitliary...looks like they are sitting by themselves??? all in a row, empty and alone...just like real life.
Gorbachev and Maggie are sitting next to each other...interesting...

Who was the dippy blond giggling and waving, and giving the "give me a call" signal? Most inappropriate.
Could you post it on a separate thread?
FOX just showed Gorbachev, Thatcher, then cut to Blair. well done, FOXNews.
Gorbachev sitting next to Baroness Thatcher. Marvelous!
Thnx
With 2 different web screens and a 3rd different TV view, and trying to keep up with the thread, I'm keeping busy (smile).
Who was the blonde doing the "call me" hand signals? Too tacky!
