Brian Williams: "No two of these speeches are different, no two presidential administrations are different...."

Brian Williams seemed dopey and disoriented on NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt on Sunday, January 20, 2013.

"No two of these speeches are different, no two presidential administrations are different...." And on Obama's second term: "...second terms are for legacies, second terms can be fraught and problematic...."

Earlier Brian had mentioned an intelligent man talking to him about the second inaugural to the effect the highs won't be as high, the lows won't be as low. Inspection of the internet finds that quote, elsewhere: Terri Weijohn said, because with direct sales, "The highs are not going to be as high and the lows aren't going to be as low."

Speaking of copying, Brian talked about known copyist Kearns-Goodwin. "We're going to have Doris Kearns-Goodwin on hand tomorrow who wrote the book just in case...."

Meanwhile, Lester did no better, identifying Stan Musial as the shortstop for the St. Louis Cardinals. Musial was not a shortstop. There are very few lefthanded shortstops!

The News ended with an interview with Dr. Terence Roberts, one of the Little Rock Nine.
