Okay, so normally I stay out of politics.
I do occasionally, weigh in on matters of policy, such as my near-constant assertion that many of our cities, Los Angeles included, would be far better off if lawmakers would wise up and pass some legislation to create a government-sanctioned Batman. The fact that I was mugged with a shiny gun to my temple by a pair of punks last December and went through the most horrendous ordeal of the cops failing to show up, finally showing up, failing to care, calling me to say they’d recovered some of my stuff, mysteriously having no knowledge of finding my stuff when I went to claim it (you KEPT it Detective, you and I both know it) and in all ways failing me in my hour of need only strengthens that.
But I keep my politics to myself. HOWEVER, this photo of Senator Obama “clinching” the democratic nomination (which graced the front page of the LA Times) scared the living crap out of me.
Something about that smile… I can’t quite put my finger on it… Wait. What does Batman do when he can’t quite figure out who someone reminds him of? He usually gets out a red pen and traces over the photo… OH HOLY CRAP!
See what happens when we don’t have Batman?!!
In all seriousness, the good senator would make a fantastic Joker. What a dead-on perfect smile structure.
