NY Governor's invocation

I was ridiculously pleased to hear the invocation at Paterson's swearing in ceremony this afternoon being delivered by a rabbi, and I just loved the statement below:

Text of the Invocation for Governor David Paterson delivered by Rabbi Shmuel Lefkowitz

Personally, I am proud to share this podium with Governor Patterson. What a truly blessed nation this is, when the son of immigrant Jewish survivors of the Holocaust, has the privilege to deliver the invocation for the first African American Governor of the State of New York.
