Title: Obama insults Americans yet again
Post by: Real American on April 12, 2008, 05:33:31 PM
How many times is Barack Obama going to insult the very people whose vote  he is asking for? First his spirtual advisor wishes damnation on America and calls us the U.S. of K.K.K. Then Obama throws his grandmother (the women who raised him) under the bus and calls her a "typical white person" for harboring racist beliefs. Now Obama is bashing small town Americans for being religious and calling them immigrant bashers and bigots.

It is funny how Obama constantly brags about having lived overseas in Indonesia and Pakistan and uses it as evidence that he understands people all over the world. What his latest comments prove is that he doesn't understand the people living right here in America.


Clinton hits Obama over 'bitter' comment
Posted: 05:57 PM ET
 
Clinton is seizing on a recently reported Obama comment.
(CNN) — Democrat Hillary Clinton is seizing on comments Barack Obama recently made in which he said some Pennsylvanians who have lost their jobs are "bitter."

"It's being reported that my opponent said that the people of Pennsylvania who face hard times are bitter," Clinton said during a campaign event in Philadelphia. "Well that's not my experience. As I travel around Pennsylvania. I meet people who are resilient, optimist positive who are rolling up their sleeves."

"Pennsylvanians don't need a president who looks down on them," she said. "They need a president who stands up for them, who fights hard for your future, your jobs, your families."

Obama's comments were reported earlier Friday by the Web site Huffingtonpost.com. The Web site says he made them at a fundraising event in San Francisco last Sunday. On Friday evening, it posted audio of the comments that verified their accuracy.

"You go into 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," he said.

"And 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," he also said.

McCain's campaign also criticized the comment Friday. "It shows an elitism and condescension towards hardworking Americans that is nothing short of breathtaking," said Steve Schmidt, a senior advisor to McCain. "It is hard to imagine someone running for president who is more out of touch with average Americans."

Newt Gingrinch pretty much ethered Obama in his blog.

The real Obama shows up in San Francisco

Blogged by:Newt | Comments:1 | (4/12/2008)

"And [these small towns] 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..." Obama reportedly continued. "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."
-Senator Barack Obama April 2008, San Francisco

If you go to the most expensive private school in Hawaii and then move on to Columbia University and Harvard Law School, you may not understand normal Americans. Their beliefs are so alien to your leftwing viewpoint that you have to seek some psychological explanation for what seem to be weird ideas.

They can't really believe in the right to bear arms.

They can't really believe in traditional marriage.

They can't really believe in their faith in God.

They can't really want to enforce the law on immigration.

Therefore, they must be "bitter" and "frustrated."

This is the closest Senator Obama has come to openly sharing his wife's view that "America is a mean country". Not since Governor Dukakis have we seen anyone so out of touch with normal Americans. It makes perfect sense that it was in a fundraiser in San Francisco that he would have shared the views he has so carefully kept hidden for the entire campaign.

Here is a link from the same event where Obama made his controversial comments. In this video clip, Obama is basically calling small town folks in Ohio and Pennsylvaniz racists. Of course the San Francisco liberals in attendance laugh in agreement.

You, I'm afraid, are very out of touch with the negroes in this country, hence your association of cracker terms like "liberal" and "conservative" to describe us. You need to learn that those terms cannot be used legitimately as you have attempted to do; there is no such thing as a "black liberal" or a "black conservative". There are only the Uncle Toms and the Righteous.  Any nigga that supports the cracker establishment will have to be dealt with by force of arms on Judgment Day, exactly as the Yakub Crew themselves will be.

So, wise up, pale face. Also, the people he is talking about are, truly, the lowest of the low.

this is a retarded thread.  Just another example of politicians taking a minor comment and blowing it completely out of proportion.   So the fuck what if he said those people were biter that they lost their jobs.   People do stick with people who believe in the same shit they do and thats an indisputable fact.   The comments don't mean he's out of touch with anything...  when people get laid off or fired  they do get mad, pissed, frustrated, biter.. whatever.  You would think elections would be about the issues, not about some minor comment that doesnt mean shit.

Sidenote: I'm not a supporter of Barack or any of the candidates,  the American democratic process is a joke.

I didn't find anything wrong with the statement... laid off workers are naturally bitter people. Maybe in some imaginary world they are happy ...

Obama did not mean to say that people were just bitter. He was clearly trying to paint Middle America as racist, bible thumping gun-nuts that were too stupid to understand what was going on around them.

Right, but that's the truth.  Middle Americans are largely bible-thumping gun nuts, and most are poorly educated.  They also tend to be fat fucks who eat too much fast food.  Middle America represents everything that sucks about America. I'm sorry if it's not politically correct to say that, but it is the unfortunate (for you) truth.

I realize that not everybody in Middle America is like that, but there are a good amount that are... There is a better way of saying that or even at his level, not saying that at all, but it's not anything that we don't know already.

I'd rather have that so-called mistake then on several occassions make up a fairy tale that you were under sniper fire in Bosnia, get caught lying about it  then having your spouse say that you are a tired 60 year old that can't remember things at times.

You won't talk about the CFR because so many republicans are also a art of it and you won't talk about brezienski  because you love war and want more of it. Nope instead of focusing on these two issues which by themselves expose the illusion of difference, you focus on him talking about americans being bitter about their situation, no shit they are bitter!.

Damn you are a dipshit

I'm sure that is not what his intent was, but even if it were, I would be inclined to agree with that sentiment.

You know damn well no politician could say that about black people. Liberals will only insult poor, working class white people from small town USA. Who even cares about them? Actually, Obama is going to care when those same people vote overwhelingly for Hilary in the Pennsylvania primary next week.

Hey Obama, here is a hint. If you want people's votes, don't put them down in a condescending way in front of your rich, liberal friends in San Francisco.

Someone needs to tell Obama that small town people in places like Ohio and Pennsylvania are not bitter, most are actually pretty hopeful and resilient. If anyone is bitter it is Obama and the people around him like his wife Michelle, Jeremiah Wright, etc. Now THAT is bitterness. Maybe that is why Obama assumes all of America is bitter, just because everyone he is surrounded by is so miserable.

Most small town folks also don't buy into the whole victimhood mentality that liberals want people to feel. Liberals want people to feel hopeless and victimized so that they vote Democratic. Thankfully most Americans reject that kind of thinking, and that is why Democrats lose election after election.
