Did you just see the old veteran get out of his wheelchair with all due deliberateness, stand shaking a little, render a firm salute, make the sign of the cross, then sit back down?

I'm teary eyed.

I agree that people are not moving through they way they could/should. I am apalled. I asked my very neutral spouse to voice an opinion and it was that we hope it is not deliberate.

Used to know someone on the Capitol Hill force but don't any longer. What we are seeing is pathetic. They could go through 3 or 4 abreast and still see it all.

FYI...

I went up and said hi to NBC's Campbell Brown who was preparing to do a live shot for the Today Show while we were at Moore Park College waiting for the shuttle bus to take us to the RR Library.

I was just dying to tell somebody......

Orderly and respectful beats rushed and chaotic.

They will wait.

Who was the man (apparently in charge of the rotunda part) who told Brit Hume that there had been "intense pressure" to increase the number of speakers? To Hume's question about whether the number HAD been increased, he said the number had not changed. !!
