It's enough to make you want to cry. With laughter:
The first African-American politician with a real chance to become president of the U.S.A. went to the Middle East and Europe, and for some reason the media found this vaguely important. Those bastards.
Honestly. But that wasn't going to stop Saint Insane, Man of the People.
When John McCain descended on a Penn. grocery store Wednesday afternoon, the unscheduled campaign stop, meant to highlight McCain's concern over skyrocketing food prices, instead quickly became a theater for the absurd. First, a cameraman knocked over several glass jars of applesauce, which rolled near McCain's feet. Then, the senator's hastily assembled press conference was interrupted by the scream of the store's P.A. system announcing a staffer had a phone call.
Finally, there was the fact that the young mother McCain had an extended chat with about the high price of tomatoes and milk was not a random shopper, but an area resident funneled to the campaign by the local Republican Party. Even with the amusing [sic] mishaps, the entire event came off as canned, and McCain -- whose discomfort with the phoniness required by politics has always been evident -- spent most of his time shifting uncomfortably.
