It’s kind of spotting something you like and snapping it.)<BR/><BR/>Those hand puppets were $10, by the way. Made me wish they were also selling a Bush/Cheney version.

I loved the Washington Post slide show and others, and of course I watched it all on TV, but to me seeing these ground-level shots of real people really brings it home.
