Question:
I'm sorry to hear of the passing of Ronald Reagan today - one of the most influential and important Presidents this country has ever seen.
May God bless his family, and may God bless America!
yes i agree with that.
agree....a good, kind-hearted man!
I agree...A real nice kind-hearted man...
I agree with y'all. I sure liked him. I THINK HE WAS A GOOD PRESIDENT. I feel sorry for Nancy. May God give her & the rest of his family the strength to endure their loss.
God bless Ronald Reagan,
I may be quite liberal but this man was a GREAT president, and a kind soul unlike the curent adminstation. :confused:
Robi will only say that I am an old softy about everything when he sees me posting this. But I liked the man and I feel sorry for his family. His son has lost his father and his sister and I empathize. I also feel so sorry for Nancy, although she must also feel a certain sort of relief having watched her husband fall victim to Alzheimers. And I share that feeling with her also as my mom has been hospitalized for 6 years now.
I hope his family feels comfort in the mass of people who loved and respected him.
For certain, an icon has passed.
My liberal heart glows that part of his legacy inlcudes Nancy's advocacy in the name of stem cell research.
One of the greatest presidents that ever lived. Responsible for the fall of the Berlin Wall, end to communist Soviet Union, and the greatest feat proving that cutting taxes with an increased defense spending (Reaganomics) can cause substantial economic growth in the long run. His legacy will live and be remembered!
Hell of a man!
One of the greatest legends that America can be very proud of.
khorath, Thank you for posting this. Ronald Reagan was a great man and President. How he mentored to the young children too!
They just enterviewed a half a dozen children...Asked them If and what they remember of Former President Reagan, they really new him!! To me that speaks volumes,let us pray the next President will be able to be remembered the way Ron was.
jo_el posted " praise to women" (or something like that) Nancy,
really deserves that praise!! What a women and what a relationship! WoW!!! It was an unselfish relationship and I know he will be missed by his family and friends,but I can't help but feel that there is a sence of peace with them now.
He will be an icon to us all and an example for us to cherish each and everyday as if it is your last (gota stop rambling)

Nancy Reagan Vetoes Clinton Eulogy
It was reported earlier this past week that former President Bill Clinton was furious that he had not been invited to speak at the Friday state funeral of former President Ronald Reagan.
Clinton, so the story went, felt that the Reagan rites were being 'politicized' and he preferred the Nixon funeral 10 years ago in which both former Democratic and Republican presidents spoke.
In fact, Newsmax.com's John LeBoutillier has learned, it indeed was Nancy Reagan's adamant wish that Bill Clinton not speak at her late husband's funeral.
LeBoutillier, a former U.S. congressman with friends close to the Reagan White House and Nancy, said Nancy feels that President Clinton stained the image of the Oval Office.
Both Ronald and Nancy Reagan revered the Oval Office.
As President, Ronald Reagan made it a policy always to wear a suit and tie in the Oval Office.
Before taking office in early 1981, Reagan told aides he was stunned to see photos of Jimmy Carter lounging in the Oval Office in blue jeans and no tie. The soon-to-be-inaugurated 40th president then vowed that "things are going to change."
Revelations during the Starr investigation disclosed that President Clinton conducted an illicit affair in the Oval Office with Monica Lewinsky.
A source close to Nancy told LeBoutillier that Mrs. Reagan would have loved to have had the popular Democrat president eulogize her husband - but she did not want the funeral service "sullied" by the man who desecrated one of Ronnie's favorite places: the Oval Office.

(Way to go, Mrs. Reagan!)
When I saw Nancy carressing and kissing the casket it was so sad...She looks so very frail!
May God bless his family, and may God bless America!
