Johnny Isakson said "I rise for a moment to join my colleagues in paying tribute to the late Ronald Reagan, President of the United States--a great conservative leader of our country and an inspiration to many, many Americans. I want to dedicate my remarks to a lady named Kathie Miller. Kathie works for me here in Washington. She has loved Ronald Reagan since the day he came on the scene and can probably quote him verbatim much better than I can. He had a meaningful impact on her life, and so I dedicate these remarks to her today. My speech will be about two events I happened to attend where Ronald Reagan was speaking and the impact of those events not only on me but on everybody else who was there, and actually on the future of our country. One took place in 1975, when he was beginning his pursuit of the nomination for the Presidency of the United States." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
