The more I think about our Commander-in-Chief's  "performance" in  
Mississippi, the more resentful and angry I get.  I am referring to  
the two very comely black women whom he hugged profusely and kissed  
on their heads (which appeared to have been freshly coiffed!) as they  
cried their tale of woe to him for all the nation to see and hear:  
"And, we don't have any clothes!"  Try to tell me that these women  
were not carefully selected from crowds of the faithful and "cleaned  
up" to be both attractive and presentable to the Prez' as foils for  
his caring performance.  I am not criticizing them at all; they were  
needy and deserving of all the help that they, and others, too, could  
receive.  But, what riles me is that this, like any other public  
Presidential event appeared to be wholly staged.  I mean, you didn't  
see our Prez' hugging a middle-aged morbidly obese person of either  
gender whose clothes stank from having to wade through flooded  
streets and whose hair was disheveled from days of perspiring with no  
showers, did you?

ARGHHH!
