buckeyemike Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 RIP to an ordinary man thrust into an extraordinary role. No matter what your political beliefs, it is always important to pay respects to a President who has just passed away. We give you your due respect, Mr. President.

And then there are a bunch of the more 'morbidly humorous' and/or 'dead pools' - for those of us who like to gamble - such as Stiffs Anyway, RIP Gerry - you've fallen down for the last time! So true.

ExiledInIllinois Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 RIP, Mr. President. You were a decent and civil man. So right! Not tryin' to open up a discourse over what should be a respectful thread to the deceased... But... And you know me Cincy... He said: "Our long national nightmare was over"... Far from the truth... Yes, he was civil and decent... Yet, IMO... Pushing things under "the rug" out of civility is never the right way to go. Justice and closure was never gained... And it set the stage for 30 years of staus quo, political game and all the workings of money, power, and clemency to grow. Yes... A decent and civil man in a time when the country needed to lay it all on the line. Ghandi said on truth: A 'No' uttered from the deepest conviction is better than a 'Yes' merely uttered to please, or worse, to avoid trouble. I view Ford as a "yes" merely to please, or worse, to avoid trouble... Anyway, again... RIP GF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 So true. I hung the flag at half-staff yesterday and it immediately got caught/hung up in the tree! So do I need to fly my flag at half-staff for the 30 days like the goverment does, or just till he's buried? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledInIllinois Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 So do I need to fly my flag at half-staff for the 30 days like the goverment does, or just till he's buried? Looked it up... During prescribed hours 30 days from date of death = Half staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
