Just compare this with the Dem Wellstone memorial. UGH, I'm trying to forget about that. It was so awful I have a hard time thinking of enough bad words to describe it.
To: Howlin
Oh, Dear, that last was almost too much for me.

Commander Husband met with crew and families night before launch, concluded by quoting from Joshua, ending with "Be strong and courageous . . . for the Lord will be with you wherever you go"

W just handed his handkerchief to someone next to him to use on a child.
Classy.
