BACK LOG: What Irritates Mr. Erzblock This Week (1/7 - 1/13)
I am fed up with hearing about Hillary Clinton's cry heard 'round the world in New Hampshire! Can't we ALL see through this charade as nothing but a mere sotto voce, teary-eyed plea to endear voters to Clinton in this latest primary? Quite simply, Hillary's sad attempt at emotion should've ended with the Dem declaring, "You see, I'm human!" before taking a bow and exiting stage left of this New Hampshire coffee house. I am neither an adherent nor a detractor of the Clinton campaign; however, such attempts at emotion--especially when they're obviously spurious--incense me. What's worse is the media's inflated coverage of this minor, unimpressive spectacle. Hey John Edwards, don't you go getting all weepy before this latest primary when you're sipping a hot cup of tea in your Brooks Brothers attire, boring the masses with tales about your father the MILLWORKER. Hard as it may be to efface the scent of your pappy's sweaty, haggard, laboring body from your memory, try and keep a stiff upper lip and wear your perma-smile.
