The Question No One Answers


Tom Belton, sage of the Senior Center, left Safeway recently, having purchased a small bag of chips, and found himself near a table in the parking lot. Many of us have seen this table before. It pops up in various sites around the county. The table calls for the impeachment of the President and sports some supportive posters of the President with a Hitler mustache.  Male and female persons stand behind the table, ready to engage the public, which hurries by with faces averted. Tom, of course, stopped to engage in some irony.

I'm not sure where the two people come from, but I suspect that they are followers of Lyndon Hermyle LaRouche, Jr., released from prison in 1994. They are the sort of people I like to see keeping busy doing useless work. In any case, the male impeacher told Tom that the President is a Muslim. "Is that right?" Tom asked, very interested. "Is he Shia or Sunni?"
