I have two nieces and a nephew, and reason to be proud of all three of them. They are exceptional kids, and will soon be fine, upstanding adults.

[That is the Santa Barbara High School Madrigal Choir at their annual Spring concert.]
He’s a talented young man, and I could not be prouder.

I have not a lot of comment about this at Jules Crittenden’s place, other than (1) complete agreement, and (2) to note that in a smackdown, I’ll take Krauthammer with his physical disability over Klein with his clearly deficient thought processes.
Plus: I’ve always wanted an excuse to link this (language, violence, and hilarity alert):
