No Dem speakers. Seems a little, er, political.

NPR said that no Dem speakers had been asked to speak today. Also, the CNN schedule shows no Dem speakers at the funeral this Friday.

Why no Dems? Doesn't this just reinforce the idea that the Republicans are trying to use Reagan's death politically? Was Reagan President of the United States or just the Republican party?

1. It's the Republican Convention.

DimSon should just turn to the casket on Friday and accept the nomination from the corpse of Saint Ronnie. :shrug:

(It's mind-boggling. These are the cretinous moral scum-suckers that complained about Paul Wellstone's memorial? Unfuckingbelievable!)

6. This isn't a funeral for

the American people. This is a funeral party for the millionaires that Reagan created. They don't give a hoot about us. Turn off the TV.
