"Saluting Those Who Serve" event: solemn dedications and Clinton jokes?
http://apnews.myway.com/article/20050119/D87MTOA00.html

Bush entered the "Saluting Those Who Serve" event to enthusiastic applause, just as about a half-dozen people were stepping forward to recite the names of fathers, husbands, brothers and sons who have died while on military duty.

In addition to solemn dedications to wars present and past, the event featured comedy routines, including imitations of former President Clinton and Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld by "Saturday Night Live" cast member Darrell Hammond and a Top 10 list of "signs that your commanding officer is nuts" delivered via videotape from late-night, talk-show host David Letterman.
