Nancy Reagan.. Brings a tear to your eye.
 

as the Widow walks up to the casket and the recognizes the crowd.. The people clap..

Brings a tear to your eye..

I hate funerals.

Nancy.. She looks the same as she did 20 years ago.

The way she stands up to her own politcal party and disses them on the stance on stem cell research is moving.

In 10 more minutes the F-15's will fly overhead in the Lost Solider formation..

Hopefully yhe news gets a good shot of that...

she looks really good for her age.

She alwasy looked "old"...

But now that she is old, she looks the same as she always did..

So for 80, yeah she looks good..

Hopefully she still has enough fight in her to make a Political Staement about Stem Cell Research and to slam her party some more and convert those in her party to accept and endorse stem cell research.

ok.....

Where are them F-15's??

Im ready..

Its what ive been waiting for.

Wow...this is amazing.

Nancy Reagan could really flex some political muscle on the stem cell research forum..

Damn i hope she does it.. What better a person.

Yeah it really is..

Im glad im here at home in the cool air conditioning than out in that 90 degree 90% humidity weather watching..

But for those there watching it go by, it would be a site to see.

Me too. Sitting on the couch with the AC cranking and a cold drink in hand.

Is that a cowboy boot in the stirrup?

thats Ronnie riding boots, and the fighters are coming when they hit the corner

yep..

Its symbolism...

In the day the General's horse would be sacrificed with the General...

Now i guess they have the boots of the General in the stirrup backwards to symbolize the same thing.

LOL... Could only imagine if they shot the horse too!!

I think CBS will have the best angle on the Fighters?

They mentioned the fighters..

I bet some channels dont know about em so the cameras wont be on em..

21 fighters they say

It's cool that they used his boot instead of one of those polished, patent leather things that he never would have worn in life.

fox just went into detail about the formations

Damn, it's a huge funeral. But he deserves it!

jDoG

cool..

Il watch both...

ABC is pissing me off..
Sam Dondaldson is having diareeah of the mouth and a bit too excited like a boxing match is happening.

1 jet will lead 5 groups of 4

Believe it or not FOX is the best from what I have seen. There isn't anyone talking excessively.

I just switched to fox news, it looks better than any others I've been watching it on.

jDoG

yeah i noticed that too..
them and CBS...

ok..

here come the fighters i think..

I think their about to come.

jDoG

any minute now

Missing man formation should happen as they get closer to Steps of the Capital.

less than 1 minute:Graucho

ptretty cool..

seemed most news channes had a hard time following em..

They should come back do it one more time.

That was incredible to see...gave me the chills

Fox has by far the most crisp clear cameras of the networks

Yeah those fighters alwasy do..

Its amazing..

At ball games, or airshows, or TV they always do.

Fox and Cnn..

But Cnn is babling on a bit too much.

I like Fox and CBS.. The fox channel is the best though it seems..

i just hate those guys... So im flipping between them and my boy Dan Rather.

F-15 Eagles are awesome

Im hungry..

I think im gunna run and get some Taco Bell and watch the rest of this when I get back..

Damn, I sound like a typical white trash american..

Taco Bell.. Its American!!!

boneprone fucked her.....and her sister

Fox may have the clearest picture, But
CBS's Dan Rather has done the best commentary and following the events..

Dan Rather is the man.

His tone and commentary is perfect..

Much respect.

these guys got a serious walk up those stairs

Nancy still looks pretty tough for a 80 year old.

I hope they have those 21 gun salutes aimed at some crack house and not somethign important....

ok..

it just got amazing again..

wathing them carry this..

Haha...I was wondering where they were firing too. Maybe down the Potomac or something. The crack houses are only like 2 blocks behind the Capitol...they're pointing the wrong direction for those. :winkwink:

I agree. I wonder how fast W would "flip-flop" if daddy got alzheimers.

100 stairs and 700 pounds

amazing

Did they even make a big deal over Nixon's funeral? I remember seeing the funeral, but not much else.

Nixon Family declined to have it

Poor guys that had to carry it. :(

jDoG

1. The media is much different now days when it was then..

2. This is Reagan not Nixon.. Nixon's was all in California wanst it? I know he's burried there.. Regan wasnt Impeached and/or left his position in the manner Nixon was.. Nixon was a shame..

Reagan dispite what political differences people had with him was huge..

I hope we see much much much more of Nancy Reagan..

Hopefully she is as tough as her husband and takes it to em in lobbying for Stem cell Research..

She's already raised some eyebrows, lets see what she does after all this passes..

Could be good..

More power to her.

Yep, Nixon resigned, and after the watergate scandal, he didn't get it, I feel Reagan deserves it tho.
