Photo of the Day

May 22, 2009

The photo below comes courtesy of The New York Times‘s write-up of yesterday’s so-called Dueling Speeches!™. It depicts the crowd at AEI–you’ll see Peggy Noonan and Ross Douthat in there, among other bored-looking luminaries–waiting for Dick Cheney’s speech and watching the president’s talk via simulcast.

Yes. So, all you witty readers out there…any suggestions for a caption?
