CNN just said...shrub will give RR eulogy...I think in DC..

[Gin]

man this should be good.

[boobooday]

1. Wow, if I were a member of the Reagan family, I would put a stop to that

Who wants to be eulogized by an illiterate with no knowledge of history?

13. She'd be better off allowing her astrologer to give it.

Man, I would even think the Freepers would be going zonkers about Bush giving it. Wouln't they want someone like Pat Robertson, or Billy Graham, or Jerry, or Dobbson? What a dishonorable thing to do. The most hated man in the world giving your eulogy. How sad can that be?

[rucky]

2. wonder what Nancy has to say about this

doesn't sound like any of this DC stuff was her idea

[tom_paine]

19. Nancy has nothing to say about this

It is a State Funeral. The Imperials have control.

[CO Liberal]

3. That Rumbling Noise You Hear is Reagan Spinning in His Casket

Does the Reagan family have veto power over who gives the eulogy???

:shrug:

[jackstraw45]

4. Rove is looking for another 9/11 bullhorn moment...

A total campaign move...hoping to raise the polls as this did

[laruemtt]

5. never an RR fan here, but

even he doesn't deserve that final insult.

[wndycty]

6. This will backfire on Bush so so bad. . .

:kick:

[prolesunited]

7. They should be ashamed

for politicizing this. Oh, wait. That only applies to Dems and Wellstone and if we dare criticize this blatant propaganda, they will claim we have no sense of decency.

8. I hope he wears his flight suit

:-)

[ElementaryPenguin]

15. One of the funniest things I've ever read on DU, Cocoa!!

Made my morning!

:bounce:
:yourock:

[bread_and_roses]

21. Second that! (n/t)

[JPJones]

23. I hope he wears a 1920's football uniform. nt

[mopaul]

9. how appropriate

[Walt Starr]

14. Your cartoon belongs on the front page of every newspaper in the country.

Damnit!

[spanone]

mo paul ROCKS!!!!!!!

[spanone]

26. mo paul ROCKS!!!!!!!

[playahata1]

10. Nancy, you NEED to STAND UP

and say, "NO MORE."

[ibegurpard]

12. Don't hold your breath.

eom

[tom_paine]

22. Nancy won't say anything. She's a Dead Woman if she does.

She is guarded by Imperial SS Men. Her food is cooked by Imperial Cooks. Her medicines are Imperial Medicines gotten free from the Imperial Pharacopeia (where Bunypants* gets his various prescription drugs to abuse).

She will say NOTHING!

[LittleApple81]

11. They are trying what mopaul has shown on this cartoon. But Bush*

will screw it up...Thank God.

16. some Republicans are already worried because RR death

has overshadowed the D-Day ceremony. I guess many realize how bad Bush's speech sucked as compared to the RR speech 20 years ago.

And than the comparison of HIS Iraq war with WWII. Bush didn't do anything to improve the situation and to get France and Germany involved. He is the greatest embarrassment for every American.

[Career Prole]

17. Is it appropriate to refer to "thugs" or "terrorists" at funerals?

The shrub's speechwriters have their work cut out for them. :D

[mondo joe]

18. The Reagans hate GW. This should be interesting.

A friend of mine is a bit of a friend with Ron Reagan Jr's wife who said they all - but Ron Jr in particular - hate GW Bush.

[Gin]

20. I wonder if he will use the word terror in the eulogy? and if so..how many

times. I cannot believe that the family wants this.

[AspenRose]

24. oooh A new drinking game

Watch the speech. For every time he says "terra," take a swig.

Every time he says "sovereignty," take a swig.

We should make up a list.

Anyone here at DU who intends to watch it will need to be drinking, anyway. :-)

[radfringe]

25. add to drinking game

for remainder of campaign season

--swig every time he mentions reagan's name
--swig every time he mentions "stay the course"

just as he wraps himself in the flag, he will try to wrap himself up in a Reagan bodysuit and then will deny trying to turn reagan into a political prop
