WOW..I am so glad to see you post that....

I am glad you feel that way...because I think we will...because we KNOW that they will do their darndest to ruin this country...

When I was listening to VP Cheney's speech, I could almost pretend he was talking about Pres. Bush....he was talking about someone having to make the hard, unpopular decisions...

WE have to take a page from the dems' playbook...the page that said to NEVER let one of their mistakes be dismissed...it has to be pointed out as many times as necessary, in order that the voting public will NOT make the same mistakes in 2008.

I remember Susan Ford writing a column for Seventeen about life in the White House. I think I was 14 then.

I was just thinking it's VERY unseemly to listen to Tim Russert at this time.

Clicking over to C-SPAN.

(Russert also "channeling" Ford, saying he is speaking out to us from the grave about bipartisanship.

OMG, the MSNBC ditz asking Russert to explain to her and her generation why Ford was "the right man at the right time".............God help me.

I totally agree. He stirred my soul, and spoke down through history. What a fine man. What a great friend.

Justice Roberts I think you are referring too!

Yes, I see him standing next to Scalia. Didn't see any of the other justices there. Not to say they're not there. Just hadn't seen them.

There's a pause, is the President coming in?

I refuse to listen to MSNBC.

Now that Fox has left coverage, I have gone to the Food Network.

Oh, what IS that. For the life of me, I never thought I'd see the day I'd look at a picture of Cheney or Rumsfeld and think "He's hot!"

Personally, I wished he would have said the Holy Name.

He did. Jesus knows that, as do we.

I think it's simple in its own magnificent way.

A simple Presidential funeral is still a rather complex and elaborate event.
