Flotus Floats Fiercely



Another Olympic moment among so many others, quickly forgotten and yet suffusing warmly out into the world to do who knows what good in the long run... Whatever else you might want to say about their accomplishments, policies, strategies, and crimes, how the Obamas have elevated occupancy in the White House just as a couple of warm, smart, dignified American people! Although the horrifying policies advocated by Romney and the Killer Clowns who have gathered around him should lose him the election in a landslide, I fear that it is just the awkward inauthentic insulated unlikeability of the robotic Romney which may be the ultimate reason he loses the election when all is said and done. Meanwhile the Obamas are respected and even loved by people of integrity as people, whatever their politics, around the world. It is important to remember the difference that makes.
