Pretty much all your links were to blogs...

Sorry TB, guess it takes a blog to help you make the brilliant intellectual leap from:

"But the truth is, is that, our challenge is to get people persuaded that we can make progress when there's not evidence of that in their daily lives. You go into some of these small towns in Pennsylvania, and like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not.

So it's not surprising then that 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."

Thank goodness you have a blog to help you with that logic... Why, you might actually have to think it out and rationalize what he said yourself otherwise! Here you can skip that pesky thinking and just jump right to the hate-filled venom and spin a blog spoon feeds you. Saves a lot of time!

Thanks for sharing how you get your view of reality!

I am just curious, do you really want to charge 'elitism' in that statement... really? You think you can actually pull that spin off? Take a look at this:



And of course you remember his wacky gag about not finding WMD while thousands died for that 'goof'...

did you charge Bush with elitism? How about the bailing out of irresponsible financial institutions with hundreds of billions in corporate welfare while telling struggling homeowners that they are responsible for the financial disaster they are in?

Obama points out that that people being screwed over and forgotten for administration after administration might tend to be resentful and angry- you go to the blogs to find what spin you should parrot for us....

Thanks, thats a wonderful contribution... I can tell it took a LOT of thought...

You're just phoning it in....
