Chiaroscuro!
O Tempora! O Mores!
Whereas we have whitening agents that some people use to lighten their complexions, now we may see sales of darkening agents for white people in Washington to darken their complexions.
Who has not noticed that Vice-President Joe Biden is now sporting a Grade 4 facial suntan? And coincidentally, is that unusual redness we have been seeing recently on Nancy Pelosi’s face the result of excessive use of a sun lamp? I find it entertainingly puzzling, that not a single reporter has made any reference to what is becoming so conspicuously evident. How can the media have failed to report these contrived excursions into post-inaugural sycophancy?
By the way, it was particularly jarring to hear President Obama address the world with these surprisingly undiplomatic words, “you cannot outlast us, and we will defeat you!” One doesn’t need to be a psychoanalyst to see that Muslims, who until now have been courted by him with such effective and subtle grace, will take very strong exception to those “crusading” words. How much better it might have been for him to have said, “we will do everything possible to resolve and overcome the hostilty of our adversaries.” Where was Obama’s oversight and sensitivity when that badly conceived, jingoistic phrase was hammered out by his speech writers?
