Wow.

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.

beautiful, mindblowing, yes

same with me here.

i think it added so much to baracks speech. it actually moved me much more than his. then again, if barack was a reverend, i'm sure those were the words he would have found.

Rev. Joseph E. Lowery

Yes, I too enjoyed more listening to Reverend's words. I even posted my blog saying precisely that ;-)
