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."

This is your brain on too much bordeaux and brie.

These dumb, stoopid Amerikkans. They’re not sophisticated Islamo Marxists as I am. (thoughts of b. Hussein Obama)

I so hope there is tape of this. Would be a great ad to run going up to the general election. I know it isn’t going over too well in this house and I doubt anyone else who heard it who lives outside of the city is taking it too well.

Wow....what a good Christian!!!!

[golfisnr1]

How condescending!

[kromike]

I pray to God that Bambi continues to utter these Kerryisms; if McCain is smart, he’ll use these phrases to totally squash this big-eared pipsqueak.

An absolutely sophomoric and gay thing to say - Sophomore in High Skool, that is. Any college Sophomore who would say something like this in the Student Union would be ostracized by (almost) everyone.

Hussein seems like he is afraid to walk around those small towns with guns, American flags, and Churches.

Sort of like a Commie Vampire.

[Ann Archy]

I don't know Ann but if he keeps this up, he is going to change PA into a red state.

It may go red anyway, if the precincts in Philly don't have 250% of the people voting.

[tioga]

49 yes to 51 no now.........I voted again. ;^)

[depressed in 06]

Wow, what a choice we have this year, a communist, a socialist and a fellow traveler.

That the DNC considers Barry Hussein Obama to be the penultimate black candidate to run for office of president says a lot about the bankrupt state of the democrap party. With all the well educated, experienced, mature, articulate black men and women in America, why would the fools of the DNC run a man who is an empty suit?... Because the DNC has that level of disdain for democrat voters! Barry is the measure of what the DNC thinks of democrat voters ... a shallow man whose hate-whitey soul istoo close to the surface, inexperienced, an empty suit spewing rhetorically linked cliches meaning nothing.
