Why I like Obama
“It’s not surprising, then, they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”
The above quote (from Obama at a fundraising event) has caused a furor from the Clinton campaign, saying that Obama is an elitist. Maybe I’m an elitist as well, because I can’t find anything wrong with those words. Lets face it, a good majority of the American population are… well… freaking idiots with no clue. And it’s our own damn fault. I’m not going to let this post turn into a long rant, but folks… America is in the shitter, politically, economically, when it comes to education and most definitely the arts.
I mean COME ON people… we allowed eight years of Bush, we can only blame ourselves, problem is most of our population is too ignorant and borderline retarded to realize it.
OH!! Okay one more thing… this is one of the quotes from Clinton in response:
“I also disagree with Senator Obama’s assertion that people in this country ‘cling to guns’ and have certain attitudes about immigration or trade simply out of frustration…”
I’m pretty sure she did inhale… people do cling to what they know in times of frustration. That is the most ass backwards statement I’ve heard in a very long time. It makes perfect sense to me, in my mind if there was ever an out of touch elitist, it would be the Clintons. (Chelsea is pretty hot though, even for a Clinton)
