Just watched West Wing's "In Excelsis Deo" episode
where Toby arranges for the homeless Korean vet to get a full military honor guard and 21 gun salute, intercut with the children's choir singing "Little Drummer Boy."

:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Its one of the most moving scenes of the whole series for me.

I want Martin Sheen for President!

3. Probably my second favorite episode in all of TV
right after another West Wing episode where Mrs. Landingham dies and the president stands in the middle of the national cathedral cursing god in latin. Gave me goosebumps
