Directed AT HIM, readers, not FROM HIM!
Check it out:
"Obama and his family sat in bleachers and watched floats pass for about an hour in the broiling sun. He apologized for not walking in the parade, a tradition for most US politicians, and blamed his Secret Service protection.
"This is the first parade where I haven't walked. The problem is if we start walking the Secret Service was going to have everybody put their hands up the whole parade route," he joked. "We decided that wasn't going to be much fun for everybody."
WTF?
What, where they expecting something -- or did they just want the idea in his head?
Obama later walked along the parade route for about 25 minutes anyway, shaking hands, holding babies - at one point he took two at a time - and wishing supporters a happy Fourth of July.
"Can't wait for the inaugural parade," Linda Beischel of Helena, who drove to Butte to see Obama, told the Illinois senator.
"It will be fun," Obama replied.
Obama's opponent in November's presidential election, Republican John McCain, took the day off.
Oh, that's why the coverage was so lean -- McCain took the day off!!!!
