Some of us are more equal than others

It appears that it depends on how much you are loved/respected by those who know you. Crowds stoped the funeral procession in the streets of Boston to show there respect. A huge crowd appeared on the steps of the Capital. Senators, Congressmen, past-presidents, vice-presidents and the president paid respect and lined up to speak about what a great man he was!

Apparently I've been trying too hard. If I continue on trying to be a decent and honorable man, no one may even notice when I die.

But if I live down to Teddy's level, then when I die, I will be a fucking hero, with national processions, flowers aplenty, and beautiful girls weeping...

No, what you need to do is admit you are not perfect yet try to have a posative effect on the world anyway. If you accomplish as much as Kennedy did for the common man.. YOu may be remembered as fondly.

Don't you have to have a burial, cremation or some other type of body disposal for a funeral to have occurred?

They did put a coffin on a stage and said some nice things about him but he's still hanging about on a shelf somewhere rather than in the ground.

No, it didn't. A memorial is not a funeral.

Today he'll be buried. I suspect there will be more flowery speeches...

MJ's funeral is so large it couldn't even be contained in a day! That must mean he is a better leader than all the Presidents combined since Lincoln! Even Churchill didn't get weeks of activity around his corpse... MJ is a better leader than all leaders of nations because people made speeches at his funeral.

I guess I thought it was a funeral without a burial. Ive attended several such funerals. Especally in the north where the ground is too frozen to dig a hole in the winter. The interrment, is held seperatly and is often just a few family members.

Oh really? Would the exception be the caliber of people in the crowd who attend as the determining factor of the measure of the person considering your statement below?

The difference between Kennedy and Jackson are vast when it comes to politics, but not so vast when it comes to money and how it buys silence and other luxuries most can't begin to fathom.

Lets see... you start out by saying that Kennedy's funeral was somehow better than Reagan's and Ford's, followed that by gizzing over the 'huge crowd', rambled on about how other politicians attended and paid respect, gizzed again at how great a man Kennedy was.... then stated "a funeral's size is not a measure of the person"....

Teddy Kennedy got a better funeral than Reagan or Ford...

What gives? I know he was a hero and all, but it was really an awsome funeral... I guess the Kennedy's have had a lot of practice... but the outpouring of love and support for this man was great, and unexpected my me!

"About 4,000 people gathered at the cathedral for the service, including President and Mrs. Bush, former president George H. W. and Barbara Bush, Gerald and Betty Ford, Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter, and Bill and Hillary Clinton. Members of Congress and past and present governors were also present.[33]

Foreign dignitaries attended as well, coming from 165 nations. The dignitaries included 36 past and present heads of state and government, and U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan. Leading the dignitaries were Mikhail Gorbachev, Margaret Thatcher, Brian and Mila Mulroney, and Prince Charles (representing Queen Elizabeth II and the United Kingdom).[34] Other world leaders included U.K. Prime Minister Tony Blair and his wife Cherie, German Chancellor Gerhard Schröder, Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, Jordan's King Abdullah, as well as interim presidents Hamid Karzai of Afghanistan and Ghazi al-Yawer of Iraq.[34] Blair, Schröder, Berlusconi, Karzai, King Abdullah, and al-Yawer had been at the G-8 Summit in Sea Island, Georgia, and later decided to extend their stay in the U.S. to attend the funeral. For Karzai, the funeral was part of his week-long visit to the U.S. and it was the beginning of his visit to Washington. He scrapped a visit to the West Coast to visit the Afghan community there to attend the funeral."

Reagan's funeral/memorial was held over seven days.

You made the point that the amount of people that showed up made his funeral more "Presidential" than Reagan's. You got caught at it and now say that others have flawed logic?

First Kennedy's funeral wasn't nearly even close to as impressive as Reagan's funeral which lasted well over a week with 36 different world leaders showing up. Second, MJ's was larger with more celebrities crying, does that mean he is more "Presidential"?

Well over 200 celebrities with a huge crowd outside the cemetery. It certainly was more than a "private family affair" as you predicted.

Your point was that the crowd and because some Senator cried his funeral was more "Presidential" than Reagan's. Then you pretend you didn't say that the size of the crowd and people who attended didn't matter?

You, sir, are twisting so hard you are probably creating your own weather pattern. You failed and are now making others arguments for them. First, this Kennedy funeral wasn't more impressive than the people you noted, second, others who weren't even Presidents had more impressive funerals than Kennedy's and suddenly you want it so that the measure you used doesn't count anymore.

Depends on what you mean by "better" but I agree that in many ways I feel Kennedy got a better funeral than Regan and Ford. Do I consider that evidence that he was a better person? NO!

Like the upside down book photo... The finger photo is a photoshopped job... if you post the picture you can see the editing on the finger, it is a different color than the hand and the index finger was changed.

Here is the snopes article about the upside down book photo you see on this site sometimes.

I am an "admitted lazy" but where did I say I was a liar? You said that 'Bush gave the finger too' then when told it was a photoshop you admitted that you knew that. The rational conclusion is that you are an admitted liar.

That Kennedy broad isn't the president of the United States.

I agree, though, that bush flipping the bird in front of a live camera is effing pitiful.

I guess I thought it was a funeral without a burial. Ive attended several such funerals. Especally in the north where the ground is too frozen to dig a hole in the winter. The interrment, is held seperatly and is often just a few family members.

Not sure how far North ya mean, but I worked in a cemetery when I was a kid and the backhoe had NP ripping threw Ice

My question is, do all the people that die just lay in the funeral homes till summer?
