Hey, it's almost time to get started!
Any minute now...
Still clapping ... (Is the livestream stuck on a loop?)
Aaaand, let's hear it for the middle class!
We must keep promises we’ve already made so our young people aren't left holding the bag.
“Deficit reduction alone is not an economic plan.”
Everyone likes the idea of a smarter government. It's just vague enough to work!
MACS MADE IN AMERICA!
Would you like some new jobs, former manufacturing workers?
Finally, a shout out to fighting climate change.
Boehner is not amused.
Preschool for every child in America!

Immigration reform sounds awesome!
Until you realize that "back of the line” means ... never?
HEY GIRL, how'd you like a paycheck fairness act?
Yes, and a reauthorized Violence Against Women Act, too, thanks!
It's time to tie the minimum wage to cost of living.
Was that dainty clap sarcastic, John Boehner?
Who doesn't love our brave men and women in the military?
We've got the most serious generals.
And the best servicemembers, both straight and gay.
Boehner is still not amused.
Oh hey, Michelle!
The camera pans to families of gun-violence victims.
Nope, Boehner's still not standing.
That's all, folks!
Now, who's thirsty?

What's the source of the first picture? I swear that's my mother in the first row on the far right. Really.

If the best criticism liberals can give Rubio is a sip of water then I underestimated the level of pettiness which exists in the democratic party.
