    Reagan did the right thing burrying Louis in Arlington...it took like 50 years but FINALLY a President did the right thing for Joe
    Really don't see the generosity in doing something for a guy who's DEAD.

    Short bus my @ss, posthumous generocity, (let alone coming just days after someone's death who had been sh!t on the entire last half of his life), is self serving.

    I think were agreeing here in the end.I could give two S!!!'s about reagan and /or his motives.The bottom line is A man and great as well as his family were given back a bit of respect that was lacking for way to long.Yeh,too late and a shame but well overdue non the less.

    The right thing to do is the right thing to do...even when no one is there to appreciate it
