5. That poor thing!!
I feel so bad for him. He must have been exhausted. I hope he takes care of himself. I know he has been working very hard for his wife. I heard that was a 3 hour long church service!!! Wow. I can not imagine that. I almost fall asleep after an hour long service sometimes. I appreciate you posting this. I am concerned about him too. I will put him and Hillary in my prayers.

6. If Martin Luther King was making a speech, I'm damn sure he'd be awake.
Or dead. Come to think of it, he'd have to be dead.

9. I'd seen it before
But still appreciate you posting it again. Very funny, I do feel sorry for Bill. I had the misfortune years ago to know a man that had a heroin habit and he'd nod off like that. I'm sure that isn't Bill's issue but it sure brought back memories.

10. I don't begrudge him this
I'm much younger than he and have dozed off in seminars. Maybe he wasn't interested....maybe he's getting a blood sugar low.

11. I really think that a former President should set the bar higher
I'm amazed that people are willing to give him a free pass at this. Thanks for working SO hard on African-American issues, Bill.
