Distortion

Juan Gonzalez, of the New York Daily News, who was present during the interview says that Hillary Clinton distorted what Bernie Sanders said in the famed New York Daily News interview, and that several members of the board who did the interview have said the same:

Idears?

I need idears!  See this bench?  I bought it from Craigslist so I can refinish it for our front entryway in time for Mah*Sweetie's birthday.  I'm trying to decide between black and gray.  Thoughts?  The wall is not light pink as it looks here, but more a dusky rose.  The rug is charcoal heather and the Snowflake Bentley print is black and white.   So it feels like a toss up.  I'd appreciate your thoughts on which might look better and why.  I might be leaning toward the gray…at least today.
