I miss him too......He did what he said he was going to do.........ALOT OF PEOPLE are faulting him for it........I love the military...Just like Reagan did.......We as Americans do what is BEST for America..........Ronald Wilson Reagan will be missed and is still .......Bush was a good president, * in my opinion*>
I would hold this up with the post 9/11 speech to congress as bush's best. you can disagree with his policys all you want, but this man has a beautiful gift to express the emotions of both himself, and others. He is a kind hearted man, and a good person. Just like the beautiful man he is speaking about here.
Richard Nixon and Reagan were 2 presidents who gave a shit about america. Bush was selfish but those 2 men may not have been perfect but they wanted only the best for their country.
@RJY4356 Well you should probably cut the guy a break since he was sitting in his father's funeral service. That's kind of cold and jerkish of you dude.
@greg54444 You dont' knwo what I'm talking about. His son is a jerk all the time, during the funeral and after. He used his funeral speech to make political points aginst Bush and others...then spoke a month later at the DEMOCRATIC convention in a snarky little speech. He exploited his fatehr's death that summer for everything he could get out of it. So, that's the context.
@RJY4356 Ron (or Skip as his father called him) is a jerk. I will agree with you on that. But how he acted at his own father's funeral or the expression on his face is his own business. Just get over the fact that people living in a society should have some common decency and deal with it. If you want to be a jerk, well be my guest.
@greg54444 Look greg, I/'m not talking about the look on his face or what he's thining in this scene form the funeral, it was a GENERAL comment about him as a person comparatively. Back off.
1:24-1:30 " Ronald Reagan belongs to the ages now...but we preferred it when he belonged to us." Literally made me choke up hearing that- very good, very true line.
@Politcalamity I can respect your opinion as long as we can agree NOBAMA is a COMMANDER IN THIEF and has 1,059 DAYS TO GO! We could definitely use a THUNE UP as in John Thune! I recall '80 when Ronnie was elected. My father said, "Anybody has to be better than what's in there now!" Apparently a lot of other people agrees with Dad! I asked Dad if this isn't Carter all over again. Dad said one word: "WORSE!" I agree!
The only candidate I liked in the last election was Ron Paul. He was ignored, and his air time was cut short at the end of the primaries.
But what can I say, this country has been split by the politicians and the mass media to where you have to be openly hardcore left or hardcore right. It's not cool to say you're in the middle somewhere anymore. Political extremism started with GWB, and continues with Obama.
And anyone who says they're truly hard left or hard right is usually a liar.
@granthill50 Never thought I'd say that a year or more ago but couldn't agree more now! I think Bush's reputation may go up after the passage of some more years.
@granthill50 Ya know, he was a bit of an odd ball but heack..i think we need another guy like him. Knows what he's doing and can keep America laughing wether he tries to or not.
@granthill50 so do i i don't care what people think of us when he was on my tv it just made my day ok fine i didn't agree with some things like Iraq but man the guy had humor
