He didn’t write it (Our Peggy did), but he struck just the right notes in addressing the nation’s shock and grief. Millions of Americans, many of them children, watched the Challenger launch that day and saw the explosion live.
Say what you will about the rest of Ronnie’s legacy, but he was a damned fine reader of speeches. This short speech will bring a tear to your eye-socket.

You in danger OP girl. Don't you know Reagan was trolling the bathhouses and was the one giving everyone AIDS?

What, you think Shrub didn't say some pretty words written by someone far more intelligent on 9/11?
Obama didn't hit the right tone on bin Laden's killing?

R4 Ronnie didn’t give anyone AIDS.
He simply pretended it didn’t exist.

He did give some great speeches. The Challenger one, and “Mr Gorbachev, tear down this wall!”

Who wrote it? That truly was beautiful. Incredibly well delivered by Reagan.

We need another actor/actress in the White House. That was a very smooth and sweet address to the nation and it moved us. Never ever again will that kind of love and unity fill this country.

F U OP.
Thousands of Americans dead from the AIDS virus & he couldn't be bothered with those deaths in any type of speech like this but a handful of Americans die in a space accident? He becomes a attention seeking whore on every network. He basically said it's all about the quality of Americans killed & not the quantity and you drank his sick Kool-Aid. Reagan couldn't have done much for any more U.S. astronauts with this speech but one for AIDS patients would've done wonders for them & others affected with the fatal virus around the world as the office he held still carried some human rights weight before he screwed that up too.

Noonan deserves all the credit for his having that nickname.
She's a nutty boozebag but credit where it's due.

Reagan opened the door and put out the welcome mat for the folks who are today's Christian Nationalists.
So pardon me OP if I don't want to kiss Ronnie Raygun's ashy butt.

Wasnt the Challenger pressured to launch that day despite the risks because they wanted Reagan to be able to laud its launch during his speech that night? Feel like their loves were wasted due to the hubris of our government
