The fabric of our lies.

Obama strikes out in bad mom jeans.

Romney's 501(c)(4) jeans:
He buys them by the PAC.
In honor of the patent Levi Strauss and Jacob Davis received on this day in 1873 for their riveted workpants, let us now ban this patently fake symbol of authenticity from political campaigns.  All jeans must go.  To prove his bona fides as a man of the people, the first Bush ate pork rinds, and this, I propose, is the appropriate gesture for the notoriously persnickety arugula-loving Obama and for Romney, with his well-documented horror of 7-11 cookies.  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/04/24/cookiegate-romney-cookie_n_1449848.html 

No more wearing the blues until after the two pols have snacked sufficient quantities to ask, worriedly, Do I look fat in these jeans? And that may be a while, given Levi's size deflation (very male vanity-enhancing!) that  Gene Weingarten writes about in WaPo http://tinyurl.com/cch4ptj  Ah, denim--the fabric of our lies.
