Pretzel Story
Is it just me, or does anyone else have difficulty believing the president passed-out because of a pretzel? Maybe I’m too much of a skeptic, or perhaps I have lived a sheltered life, but never have I heard of someone choking on a pretzel and then passing-out.
According to the White House, the president was alone on the couch watching the football playoffs and eating pretzels. I haven’t heard anyone from the press ask, but I wonder what beverage the president was drinking to wash down all those pretzels. Perhaps the guy has taken to hitting the sauce again; litterally falling off the wagon and landing on his face.
Maybe the story of the pretzel is true. Who could create such a lame excuse? I mean, the president passing-out because of a pretzel has all the makings of bad fiction. Imagine if it is true, and the end result was far worse than a facial injury. I can just see the history books now; John Wilkes Booth, Lee Harvey Oswald, and Mr. Salty.
