Hey, guy, I wear contacts, and have only recently needed reading glasses. And, if wearing them, I do look over the tops so I can see the person I’m talking with. If this offends you, so be it. Take your ugly elsewhere.
Whether you are offended or not, he looked judgmental and prosecutorial. He can afford better options.
No offense meant Dorothy regarding your contact lens situation. In my face to face dealings with those that wear reading specs I have sensed a ‘snobbish’ aire. I’ll stick with my bi-focals and use my words to exhibit any needed snobbishnes and condescension and not rely on the non-verbal cues which may or may not present the right degree of aire.
My opinion may make me an idiot in the eyes of a few, but Gibson confirmed his snobbish status on the tube in front of millions.
Dorothy,
“Charlie” didn’t use his reading glasses to silently scold
“The Barackstar”. No hard questions . . just questions like, “What did your grandmother think?”, “Where did you meet Michelle?” “ What do your kids think?” “Boxers or Briefs, Senator?” “Did you think, I’ve pulled it off!” “Pardon me for asking, Senator,and don’t feel like I’m pressing, but what now for Hillary? Possible VP? but don’t answer unless you really, really want to, Senator?”
Smile . . Smile . . no glasses . . no questions about HIS radical preacher’s hatred of the UKKKSofA . . no questions about his much ballyhooed RESULTS during his “community organizer (or is it agitator?) days. We’ll certainly never know much when it comes to the “UH-BAMA” . no questions about his involvement with the Chicago machine and Rezko . . or Ayers . . or Saul Alinsky hero worship (Hillary’s hero, too). No questions about HIS foreign policy experience (remember O’s whirlwind trip last month and haste to set his foot in every country possible for photo-ops with world leaders who look puzzled as to “who IS this guy”.) I’m sure all this “world travel” will regale our television watching schedule soon.
I’ll vote for a competent black man IF he ever runs. “O” would be incompetent no matter what color he was, and I’m not voting for someone just to try to prove I’m not prejudiced. “Charlie” saved his condescending reading glasses affectation for Sarah, and HE was the one who came off looking like “Ned in the First Reader”, not Governor Palin.
