Well said, Peach -- the attraction of the live thread is the commentary on whatever is being heard or shown that moment. If that happens to be the Clintons, so be it. anyone seeking a Clinton-free memorial thread can save the thing to a word processing program and excise the offending posts. Easy as pie.

God bless President Reagan, and all who mourn him today.

For instance, I looked away from the television a moment to type something and completely missed that Cheney wouldn't shake Hillary's hand. I'm glad a Freeper caught that and typed it.

I missed that Karl Rove was sitting behind Al Gore and am glad a Freeper caught that and typed it.

Are those comments appropriate to a "memorial" thread. No. Are they interesting? Yes.

In the future - if a freeper thinks a "live" thread may devolve into catty or inappropriate remarks, please start your own thread and state the ground rules right up front.
