And how much do you bet nobody bothers to ask her a single tough question- like how did you get to the rally, how did you get up front, why are you homeless, etc., etc. Because, in Obamerica, you can't ask anybody tough questions, unless they're skeptical of the One. All the newspaper stories about His encounter with Homeless Henrietta Hughes indicate how emotionally affected He was. More like emotional
affectation. The President didn't hustle off the stage because he was emotionally touched; he was just dodging the questions he knew were coming, after HHH requested a home with a kitchen and a bathroom: "And can you have them bring me food? No cheese, 'cause I'm lactose intolerant. And a deck for the yard, maybe a pool- not one of those kidney shaped things, either- how can I do laps in one of those? Oh, and can you validate my parking?"
In three very short weeks, President Obama has managed to reduce himself from the most powerful man in the world to some super-sized social working hack. The Iranians are laughing at us, the Pakistanis let AQ Khan out of the slam, and we are blowing through our great great grandchildren's inheritance, but at least the Homeless Henrietta Hughes of the world are being listened to. She'll have lots of company shortly.
