He was tall and darkly handsome, in a chiseled sort of way. Clearly intelligent. Quiet and attentive, yet distant in a way that intrigued her as they both drew closer together during those long evenings sipping cheap wine and practicing sophistication on each other.
Both were new to adulthood, trying out the public personalities each wanted the world to see, not the inner tremors that corroded their intestines during long nights when dark personal fears crept into the corners of their lonely apartments.
Like most others from somewhere else who found themselves living in New York City, they told each other how wonderfully exciting and diverse the filthy place was. One minute you could hear distant gunshots, sirens or witness a mugging in the musty subway. And the next you were in a lovely park watching someone declare their contempt for capitalism's greed by defecating on a car, which is actually much harder than it looks on TV.

he is a POS composite
But how convenient that they “ found” a diary and letters from 30 years ago to bolster his image
such BS
Why has no one in the media asked where these letters have been?
Who wrote this? Joan Wilder?
Handsome? Really? He looks like a monkey with huge Dumbo ears . . . I can't stand this kind of BS. Clearly intelligent? Really? Does he have grades to prove it? Where are they?
Boy, I tell ya', if Bush (either one of them) had written an autobiography about themselves and then bull$shitted their way through anything, they'd be called LIARS!
the title by itself should get a Pulitzer.
Well that first line should have told you that this was a piece of satire.
This crap reads like a romance novel. Am I supposed to take this seriously as an insight into Barack Obama?
It was a dark and stormy night.....
well, titles don't get Pulitzer. But ykwim.
How can the media look the other way on this filthy LIAR? Incredible!
I do not see the handsome part. But then it is a matter of taste. I also do not see anything in Brad Pitt who just looks like a wimp to me.
The night was sultry.....
This is a look at Obama through the eyes of Obama and his groupies.
and what says “diverse” more than distant gunshots and filth?
He’s a composite of Rev. Wright, Bill Ayers, Frank Marshall Davis, his loopy mother, his POS father, his molesting grandfather, elitism from Punahou, Occidental, Columbia and Harvard and the South Side of Chicago.
So how again does that mess, speak to the average American???
My thoughts exactly! HAHAHA!
“It was a dark and stormy night....”
The April 2012 Bullyer-Lytton contest has just closed. But I bet Freepers could construct their own “worst openings to a fiction piece” modeled on the San Jose Professor’s annual contest. Want to have some laughs on previous entries go to: Bullwer-Lytton Fiction contest. hilarious.
“It was a dark stormy night; the rain fell in torrents except at occasional intervals, when it was checked by a violent gust of wind which swept up the streets (for it is in London that our scene lies), rattling along the housetops, and fiercely agitating the scanty flame of the lamps that struggled against the darkness. Edward George Bulwer-Lytton, Paul Clifford (1830)
I think the proper spelling is 'compost site'.
Cheryls mind turned like the vanes of a wind-powered turbine, chopping her sparrow-like thoughts into bloody pieces that fell onto a growing pile of forgotten memories.
