Speak for yourself. I'm not bitter or overly-politicized. As I said in Post #190, Ron Jr. politicized the event, not me.
This thread is dedicated to commentary on Ron Jr. It's not about the overall tribute to Reagan in which the nation was immersed this past week and which has been a precious and uplifting gift for us all.
And I'm not saying the ceremony at the Reagan Library was ruined by Ron Jr.'s remarks, although they certainly didn't ennoble it. I'll even go so far to say that the comfort he gave his mother at the casket will be an enduring image in American history, and was a genuine and touching expression of his humanity.
Do you think its possible that young Ron equates religious mandate with opposition to stem cell research? Nancy is for it and President Bush is against it. Could stem cell research be used during the election to show that President Bush is opposed to something that Nancy favors, to make President Bush look bad?
Fair points. I can't argue with what you said in this post (although I'll still overlook Ron's comments as ambiguous and, ultimately, unimportant in the scheme of things).
