John McCain was caught on tape talking to a roomful of working class Americans at a VFW Hall in Hogeye, Arkansas yesterday, and it wasn't pretty. News outlets quickly pounced, noting excitedly that he had dropped all bipartisan pretense. "These urban liberals, they cling to their bankrupt liberal orthodoxy and lattes, sneering at everyone who doesn't think like them because they are scared. They think anything outside of city limits is a lawless backwoods free-for-all where toothless hicks and barefoot pregnant women roam around in gas guzzling pickup trucks shooting anything that moves, for heavens sake!" Loud clapping or stamping obscured his next comment that seemed to mention ACORN, cigarette and booze bribes, voter fraud and dead people voting. "Friends, my friends..." He paused to let the noise die down, then began again. "They prefer their squalid liberal cesspools of high taxation and high unemployment, insisting imperiously that progressive paradise would be ushered in if only those stupid country hicks would stop voting Republican." The audio is then overwhelmed by outbursts of laughter and hoots of approval from the small, enclosed crowd. The last part of the recording is partially indistinguishable: "(inaudible) ... piano lessons,... millionaires... pay for their own damn college bills...hard working Americans!" "...Proud of our country..." (more hoots and yee-haws)... (Break)
I really shouldn't listen to Bill Bennett's Morning in America on the way to work... Thanks to caller Dr. Marty for the idea.

Good satire is wasted on those who read and post to fast.
“Liberal Fantasy: McCain Caught on Tape” is the correct title!
very good satire, wish it WAS true.
“These urban liberals, they cling to their bankrupt liberal orthodoxy and lattes, sneering at everyone who doesn’t think like them because they are scared. They think anything outside of city limits is a lawless backwoods free-for-all where toothless hicks and barefoot pregnant women roam around in gas guzzling pickup trucks shooting anything that moves, for heavens sake!”
And, the problem with this statement is????
Hey, foutsc! Didn’t ya miss your piano lessons?
Someone should post this on Kos so that Olberdouche will report it on his show.
McCain you magnificent ba$tard!
Tired of dogpaddling in the cesspool of DU, so you thought you’d spittle some here at FR? Bwahahahahaha, so transparent you n00bies are.
I didn’t read anything there that isn’t true.
Y’all aren’t too bright. This is clearly a parody of the Obama “cling to guns and god” moment. . .
Guess I missed the /sarc tag.
They cling to their Volvos and their New York Times.
I read it twice, just so you know, sat there for a while and decided it was too close to reality to be effective satire, you know, the kind that even liberals can identify. That would be the kind of people who hear ‘Russia can be seen from some parts of Alaska (meaning Nome)’ and who regurgitate ‘I can see Russia from my house (in Wasilla, outside Anchorage and 800 miles away)’.
Guess you’re just smarter than me.
All the calls for your zot are only satire.
Sounds like a plan to me!
Don’t say I’m smarter cause I’m not.
There are a couple of Satire posters that get me every time.
I’m well into the second paragraph and I go “Hey, wait a second here. Just who the heck posted this?”
Hooked again.
Well, in that case I’m now once-burned and know what to look for. Thanks for being so considerate.
