His arms got hurt and he can't move them above his head by himself. Maybe this explains why his arms look stiff and kind of out of sync with the rest of his person in this video.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34239192.post-21395588343249199982008-04-23T18:59:00.000-07:002008-04-23T18:59:00.000-07:00Ms. Claus-GrayThanks for visiting!

I read on one discussion group that Senator McCain's wife, Cindy, might be a quilt collector.Kyrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12753849992598813120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34239192.post-77566443133582092702008-04-23T08:19:00.000-07:002008-04-23T08:19:00.000-07:00While I am pleased to see a presidential candidate...While I am pleased to see a presidential candidate visit a black community, showing respect for the residents and interest in their art, it bothered me that when a black woman held his arm, it looked like he was reluctant to allow her to hold his hand. He curled his hand back, and while most of his body language was warm and interested, and showed respect, his hand seemed to show repulsion. This is a mixed message, but at least he showed up there, and it is one small step forward in recognition of the needs in the black community, the poor blacks in particular.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
