Tears streaming down everyones face. Everyone is very emotional already and i do think they are very much looking forward to Everyone Else who will Come On this date.

Tonight on the reidout. We have to decide, do we still believe in honesty, freedom, respect, justice, and democracy. Do we believe in the promise of america . And are we ready to fight for it . You know, they go crazy when they say the late, great hannibal lector. Okay . They say why would you mention hannibal lector . He must be cognitively in trouble.
