Clinton Is Ticked...
...he hasn't been asked to speak at President Reagan's funeral!From the Drudge Report:
"President Clinton really held out all hope the funeral would be a nonpartisan event, like Nixon's was," a top Clinton source said on Tuesday morning. "He's angry and disappointed neither he nor President Carter have been asked to speak, as of yet."
The top source says Clinton has been critical that both Bush presidents will address the crowd gathered at National Cathedral.
Nixon's vice president Gerald Ford did not speak at Nixon's funeral.
Clinton's inner circle is convinced Nancy Reagan has personally shut out Clinton from any high-profile participation.
"It is a state funeral, using tax dollars," the top Clinton insider explained.
Matt's Chat
For the love of - Bill, shut the pie hole, man. Really. Politicizing the man's death is outrageous.Quick question: Will John Kerry and the liberals call this unilateral eulogizing? I mean, we've only got a Canadian, a Brit, an Irish tenor and a Jew here...
Former President George H.W. Bush, former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and former Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney will join President Bush in eulogizing Ronald Reagan, Reagan's office announced. Presiding over the service will be former Sen. John Danforth of Missouri, who is an ordained Episcopal priest. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor and the Rabbi Harold Kusher will give readings, while Irish tenor Ronan Tynan will sing.
Mark's Remarks
Maybe the Reagans would worry about suffocation since you would undoubtedly suck all the oxygen out of the room, Bill. You sanctimonious, self-serving, self-centered tubby pile of lecherous goo. Who in the blue hell do you think you are? Funerals are for the family, Mr. Clinton, not self-serving publicity starved scandalous ex-Presidents looking to latch on to the public love of a true Leader! This article made me sick to read, that you would turn a funeral for a great man and leader into something about you, but that is what life is to you , right Bill? It's always about you. You make me sick.
And what would you say, Mr. Clinton? That you seeked to destroy the military peace through stength initiative that kept us safe? That you sought to destroy the pro-growth policies of tax cuts? That you fought tooth and nail against the welfare reform Reagan advocated and only caved when the election was at stake? That you took the respect he had restored to the Presidency and destroyed that faith over oral sex and the definition of 'is'?
You just proved that you are the worst example of publicity seeking political hack. You are uncaring, self-serving and a miserable failure as a leader and statesman. Stay home, then, you will not be missed. And, as Matt said:
SHUT
THE
PIEHOLE!
