. . .I was fine and then Obama walked over to the members of Congress and I got chocked up, kept my composure, but got chocked up. . .WTF? Fricking Leahy has a DAMNED CAMERA, why?

who probably grew up in a segregated community, may or may not have been involved in the civil rights movement and is now hugging and being hugged by a black president.
