It was excellent, and even if the 'mandate' quote was a reference to President Bush, he had the right and perhaps even the duty to state it, if he truly believes this difference exists. And there's nothing to indicate he made the statement cynically. President Reagan's funeral was the perfect time and place to make it.

The Republicans can't be so insecure and thin-skinned as to be made angry by his statement.

He was President Reagan's son, at this historical moment to disparage him, is to disparage his Father. IMO, President Reagan understood that good people can disagree on things, and it would behoove a lot of people to come to that belief.

I am tired of people saying we are "angry" or "offended" by correctly interpreting Ron Reagan's remarks.

Just noting what he said is not "being angry", it is being sensible.
