"I am smiling."

You know what's really creepy? Fake smiles. People who grin widely and pretend to be amused or charmed when, in fact, they are pissed or in total disagreement. I realized this last night watching Darrel Issa on Bill Maher's show. He was doing everything possible to seem amiable, which he is not. He grinned, he smiled, he half-chuckled. He made several pathetic attempts at humor, which dd not get a single titter from the audience. All I could think of is, what is this grinning jackass, former car thief and arsonist doing on this program much less in our country's Congress?
