I could think of a bunch of bad things to say about the man...but why? It's just flat out wrong to pick on the man after he is dead. He did a duty for our country so let him R.I.P., but if people want to try to glorify him, and get him on currency, well that's another story.

R.I.P and God bless his ANGEL of a wife for standing by her husband all these years, in the good and the not so good times.
I really feel for her, losing the man she loved for 52 years.

that is all I could think about every time I saw Nancy. She took her vows to heart. She took care of him for 5 solid years of he@@....she wouldn't even accept help from outside the family. No matter what kind of president he was, they truly loved each other and she took care of him until the day he died.
and Altziheimers (sp) is a horrible thing for family/loved ones to experience. Believe me....

Yes... I agree.... we should criticize the fact that he wasn't MORE aggressive and didn't iintroduce legislation to OUTLAW liberals!
I think the history books will tell all..... and the sheer numbers of those paying respects (double what was expected here in CA), and looks to be at least double in DC...
His legacy:
*Freeing the hostages in Iran (now...THAT was awesome!)
*Challenging Gorby to "tear down this wall" (this in itself is the single-most astounding thing an American president has done/said in the past 50 years).
*Our world is forever changed and a MUCH better place because of him and his efforts to end the Cold War... I suppose there are some of the younger set here who don't remember the "duck and cover" drills... I'm glad my kids don't have to worry about some guy in the USSR (what's that?) pushing a red button and vaporizing N. America.
*Starting the ball rolling for the Pro-life movement... (a great thing, to me
)Sure, there are some "shady" things... (arms for hostages...
) But....hey...truth is (and everyone with a brain knows it)...the Presidency demands some "shady" dealings once in awhile.All-in-all...the greatest president of the 20th Century... IMHO

well, i for one felt it was an emotional and powerful ceremony yesterday. I'm sure Fridays will be even more so
So did I. It was somber and beautiful. Poor Nancy. I hope she can make it without him. You all MUST read the story of Nancy's last moment with Ron. It's on the New York Post website. There was a link on the drudgereport. It'll make you cry.
Farewell to a great president and a great man.

forget politics for a moment and have some sympathy for the family, and a previous leader (if you like him or not, dosnt matter) of our country. this is a funeral, not a presidental election.

Almost ruined the country? What are you kidding me? The man did what needed to be done that no bleeding heart liberal would have had the stones to do. Ended the cold war, bankrupted the Soviets. I'm pretty sure the decade that followed was the one of the most prosperous in the history of the USA.
