Barak Obama's Inauguration
So moving. Who knows what the coming months and years will bring, but I was thrilled to witness this, and to be able to put my political cynicism aside for the day. Three other notes:
- Joseph Lowery kicked Rick Warren’s ass (stole the show, really).
- Dick Cheney in the wheelchair! Aside from the obvious symbolism of the decrepit and tired exiting the stage, there’s the fact that he now physically embodies the Bond villain he has always been (or, even better, the HH take).
- How ‘bout that kid in the front pew in Chicago? Asleep the first time we cut to that location, and struggling to stay asleep the next time. Awesome.
