The best of the black boots ball

I promise I'll stop talking about the inaugural. I know I have been obsessed. I will move on, but before I do, I feel compelled to share my two favorite inaugural pics (plucked from the quite astonishing site Cryptome--be warned, the site also features torture and death photos).

This first one I love because it just captures in one image so much of what is wrong with this administration



And this second one, if I'm not mistaken, shows Cheney peeing on the lectern, an act that clearly has Laura perplexed (though George has a knowing grin).
