Countdown's "tribute" to the Bush administration....At Last.

Though the speech was relatively brief at eighteen minutes the song was truly short. Only four stanzas which is critical if you've got to dance to it ten times. But in our number one story that love song doubled as revelatory political commentary last night because of two simple words...the title...At Last. Yes there was dancing to the classic song made popular by Etta James in 1961, the year President Obama was born and by the first time the First Couple rounded out the tenth and final ball, At Last no doubt had new meaning. But for the nation eight years and then in an instant President Obama's predecessor had exited, at last.
