Well done, President Bartlet.

As if the nonstop rain and subsequent flooding weren't depressing enough, the series finale of The West Wing aired tonight, and it was heavy on the sentimentality. Make fun, but I felt as if I was saying goodbye to an old friend.

The West Wing did honor to those who work in politics and the government: staffers, candidates, Members of Congress, judges, cabinet members, the military, and occasionally the ordinary clerk in the basement office. And that's why it was almost universally revered by all of the aforementioned groups.

To quote Rizzo turned First Lady Bartlet, "You did a lot of good, Jed, a lot of good."
