Rev. Joseph E. Lowery's benediction was utterly mindblowing. I'll post a video and transcript when I can. At Hoyden, someone mentioned that maybe it was strategic to have the invocation done by Rick Warren, because then he was TOTALLY OVERSHADOWED by Rev. Lowery.
And now that that's over, I suddenly crave Michelle Obama shortbread.
Also, transcript of
Obama's Inaugural Address is already up at Shakesville.
