2005 LA18 Lunar New Year Parade
Although the theme of the parade is "Lunar New Year" and features a strong Chinese emphasis, I was amazed by how diverse it actually was.  We had participants from across Los Angeles' giant Asian communities as well as the USC marching band, a taste of old African American Southern music and yes, even circus clowns.

""Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."




"I want to thank the astronauts who are with us, the courageous spacial entrepreneurs who set such a wonderful example for the young of our country."




"Had we to do it over again, we would look at the consequences of catastrophic success, being so successful so fast that an enemy that should have surrendered or been done in escaped and lived to fight another day."
