Hillary Clinton, whose greatest qualification for president is perhaps that she is a) a woman who b) everyone knows, walked into a Chipotle in Maumee, Ohio today and went unrecognized. She was on her way to Iowa in her Van of Populism on her Road Trip of Everyday Americanism.
Maybe it was the dark sunglasses. Or maybe she had a certain je ne sais — qui?
But nobody took notice of the celebrity in front of the counter. Fellow patrons paid her no more attention than a driver would get from a toll taker.
Nor did the restaurant’s staff notice Mrs. Clinton, until this reporter, tipped off that she had dined there, telephoned.
The Chipotle manager, Charles Wright, insisted at first that the tip must have been false.
But he offered to review his security-camera recordings, and quickly reversed himself. There was Mrs. Clinton, in a bright pink shirt, ordering a chicken burrito bowl — and carrying her own tray.
“The thing is, she has these dark sunglasses on,” Mr. Wright said. “She just was another lady.”
Am I the only who cares about Gaia, about humanity? Am I the only one who sees the REAL issue here?
Hillary is driving, more correctly being driven, from NY to IA, a distance of about 1K miles. What is her carbon footprint for this trip? How much fossil derived fuel will she consume? Her fair share? Does she have security and other support staff accompanying her in other vehicles thus doubling, tripling, or even more of her fuel consumption and carbon footprint? Is the Scooby van a hybrid? Does anyone know as so far no one has seen it?
Yes, my friends, this is the real issue about this trip: Hillary is going to kill us all by doing stunts like this. Where is Algore, Michael Mann, Barack "Greatest Threat" Obama, and the rest of the environmentalist Greek chorus of doom?
Does no one care?
