Teddy 21 Posted June 15, 2004 2005 seems to be shaping up for a potentially bumper year for former First Ladies. In addition to Nancy, we have Lady Bird Johnson, and lets not forget Barabra Bush (79), Rosalynn Carter (77), and Betty Ford (86). Admittedly, Barbara and Rosalynn may still be on the young side (relatively speaking, of course), but surely the drug and alcohol abuse that Betty fought in the 70's has taken some toll. Looks like the title ex-First Lady may soon be changing to ex-ex-First Lady Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weatherman90 7 Posted June 15, 2004 is there room for her on the 2005 list? is she famous enough it would be too strange to have a deathlist without a reagan on it Why would you ask a stupid question like "Is she famous enough?" She's a first lady for god's sake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Are you that stupid?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rude Kid 3 Posted June 15, 2004 It was a fair question from Mr The Squid. Get a sense of perspective - Nancy Reagan is only a former First Lady of a single one of the world's 193 countries, which is home to not much more than 5% of our planet's population; it's just that many inhabitants of that country have a blinkered tendency to forget that there's anything outside their borders. Hell, this isn't even an American website. Could you name the widow of a former President of any other country? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Teddy 21 Posted June 16, 2004 (weatherman90 scurries off to look in an atlas for these 'Canada' and 'France' places of which you speak...) If its any help weatherman90 - Canada is that cold place up north which isn't part of the US (don't confuse it with Alaska, which is). France is that big country in Europe which didn't support the war in Iraq. Oops, doesn't really narrow that down much, does it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Karl-Erik Wadin Wesslén Posted June 16, 2004 If she was married to that f*****g despot and capitalist (same thing) I really hope she´ll die a painful death really soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weatherman90 7 Posted June 16, 2004 In fact I do know alot of First Ladys from other countries, Have you knuckleheads even looked at this year's list? There is a lady named "Princess Alice", who the heck is that??? The Job Description says "Queen Mum's Sister In Law" I think that If some dead Queen's sister In Law from some country can be on the list, dont you think that the first lady of the best president of the 20th century can be on it?

Grim Reaper 186 Posted June 16, 2004 Just to finish this "famous enough" debate - Nancy Reagan will qualify on that criteria primarily because her death will be well reported. Whether standing by Ronnie's side is much of an achievement to claim celebirty status is debatable but, to use Dearby Dead Pool rules as a guide, she will get obituaries in the main UK newspapers and, our other guide, all the DeathList committee members have heard of her. Wetherman - not a bad point re Princess Alice - there have been many debates about whether she qualifies - but we finally agreed (or disagreed) that she did qualify - marginally.

Night 4 Posted June 16, 2004 Mrs. Reagan should certainly qualify for being the first non-Russian to use an astrologer to determine matters of state. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Siren 1 Posted October 12, 2004 I doubt she'll last through 2005. She's not looking too well these days. [sA Edit: Merged with previous Nancy topic 13/10] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Banshees Scream Posted October 12, 2004 I Agree Nancy Reagon hasent looked at her best lateley but i think 2005 might be just a bit to soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Siren 1 Posted October 12, 2004 She was too in-tune with Ronald. I say she'll die of a heart attack, within the week of the 1 year anniversary of his death, and she'll be going to or coming from some public function. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teddy 21 Posted October 12, 2004 A welcome return to the forum for Nancy, who seemed to have slipped from peoples minds (well, she slipped from Ronnie's many years ago). You may also be interest in this thread which also discusses some other former First Ladies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weatherman90 7 Posted December 22, 2004 Ohh Please! You people just can't stop yapping about me can you? When I came back here a week ago after being gone for a month, I browsed through a great number of forum topics that I had either Started or Posted In, and after about a few weeks after I had left I found at least 1 or 2 posts refering to my being banned or my previous postings. Finally, to finish off todays lesson, Just because I was not living at the time of Regan and such, doesn't mean that I cant know just as much about him and his presidency as you, but I probably know MORE about his presidency than most of you. Especially considering that I was one placement away from going to Washington D.C. and going on television with JEOPARDY! host Alex Trebek in our National Geography Bee. Meaning I am approximately the 51st most intelligent teenager (grades 4-10) in this nation. Believe me, you gotta know a bit about Reagan to get that far.
