Laughter and Democracy

Well, I haven’t stumbled upon any ideas of note today, but I had an absolutely terrific gluten-free lunch at Coors Field courtesy of Senator Christopher Dodd of Connecticut. One of the other guests, Seth Meyers of Saturday Night Live, graced us with a stand-up routine that was simply priceless.

I laughed until tears ran down my cheeks. As I walked out of Coors Field, I realized my soul was lighter. It was the first time all week I had laughed.

I needed that. So does democracy.
