It could have been. I couldn't tell exactly what was snagged.

It wasn't Matthews that said it was fake, was it? I actually heard that weasly Ron Reagan say it was a staged event. WHAT A CREEP!

[mainepatsfan]

I think they both said it.

[NorCalRepub]

couldn't have said it better about Teddy...a lump of sh** has more redeeming value.....at least we can use it to make flowers bloom......Teddy adds nothing at all and I'm try and see the tiniest of good in people

[EDINVA]

his is NOT a "Jr." I wish people would stop calling him that.

[WestTexasWend]

"What kind of parenting mistakes did he make?"

Reagan is one of my heros and I've wondered about that a lot. I think he was gone a lot and, from the sheer volume of his writings and record of public speaking, he must've been very busy even when he was home.

I'm not sure it would've made any difference, though.
I think young Ron is more like Nancy than his dad, and any attempts to toughen him up would have brought out her claws... something Reagan would never have done to Nancy.

Ron's the one she spoiled when her husband was away (and, according to Ron, ignored when dad returned home). She clearly still dotes on him today. He's a classic mama's boy who grows up to be petulant and bitter, only worse in his case because he'll never live up to that name.

[jackibutterfly]

Oh, please don't use that expression - it's so crude. Thank you.

[DoughtyOne]

Perhaps it's just as well that the left can't understand these moments, be thrilled by them and moved to tears.

Clearly they do not understand that not everyone operates like the Clinton administration did, when "we feel your pain" meant "after they'd stuck it to you."

Let them live bitter little lives with no hope and the realization of despair when other humans gain freedom and self-determination.

I guess we should just be thankful that we don't.

[popdonnelly]

Ted Kennedy is obviously losing it. It must be tough for people like him, who thought they were going to run the World, to see their influence rapidly fading away.

[Howlin]

I've frankly run out of "descriptors" to describe how they make me feel.

[gimmebackmyconstitution]

I also noticed that the dog tags got snagged, and I thought to myself how embarrassed the lady must have felt. I wanted to tell her myself that it was OK, it didn't matter, for she had paid a high price to be standing in the place of honor last night. I thought about how spontaneous that moment was. The nerve of the liberal media! they just hate to see good triumph over evil if it doesn't fit their script. How about that
S.O.U.R.puss hildabeast? what a baby! Hard to tell if she still had diarrhea, or just a case of vast right wing conspiriritis.

Why question the Parenting skills of our Late 40th president? Jr. is what he is dispite who his father was. Greatness graciousness , kindness and leadership are not qualities which are hereditary. It comes down to the individual. Either you have character or you don't.

Jr. is just one of those liberals who does not have the sense which God gave a Chicken.

I also have a question about the MSM. How come nobody in the MSM ever thought that the touching reunion at the 2004 Democratic Party's Iowa Caucus of John Kerry and Jim Rassman ( who was saved by Kerry in Vietnam) was not staged?

[Ted Kennedy is obviously losing it. ]

No kidding. Everytime I think he's jumped he shark, the SOB takes another leap. But, he does his best work in the water, doesn't he!

"I think the only reason the MSM parade him out as an 'analyst' is to try to tarnish the memory of the Gipper. Ron's too stupid or too vain to realize he's being used."

You're 100 percent correct

"Ron's the one she spoiled when her husband was away (and, according to Ron, ignored when dad returned home). She clearly still dotes on him today. He's a classic mama's boy who grows up to be petulant and bitter, only worse in his case because he'll never live up to that name."

Also an excellent analysis.

[teenyelliott]

Liberals think everything meaningful is staged because that is how they make every move in their hollow poll-driven lives. They are incapable of understanding true empathy and sincerity.

Exactly, he has a one word resume, his last name.
