Post speech wrap up: The mayor said it was the best thing I had written for him. I didn’t say it, but I didn’t so much write it as assemble it. You guys planted the seeds, so thank you again. Some attendees even asked for written copies and that, as far as I can remember, has not happened before either.

Y’all are the best. Well, actually our men and women in uniform are the best, but y’all are a close second!

Yup, even though we read the super heroes story, still had a lump in the ol’ throat.

There must be a lot of dust in my office because towards the end of the speech my eyes started watering. I’ll make sure my people sack the janitorial staff before the day is out.

Well said, Rich. West Point refers to the “long grey line” but it is the long green line which they lead which truly inspires. They deserve our support yet disdain our sympathy.
