Obama’s Disconnect

Apr 13, 08 3:27 PM

This post is a little late, but the subject matter continues to make me smile.  Barack Obama says…..

“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.”

“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.”

Oh Lord. Do you hear the condescension from this one?  It’s sickening.  New York Daily News columnist, Michael Goodwin translates for us….

Turn his screed around and it comes out this way: If the hicks had good jobs, they wouldn’t need God or guns. Then the borders could be wide open for the enlightened world to come here ’cause our hate would vanish.

The more I hear from Obama, the more excited I become that he might actually be the Democrat nominee.  This guy has diarrhea of the mouth and can’t stop himself.  Get him away from the teleprompter, and it’s anyone’s guess what will come out of his mouth.  It just underlies the fact that Obama is truly a liberal elite without a clue.

Obama just gives voice to the liberal view that common Americans are ignorant and don’t understand what is best for them.  If we will just leave things to the Dems, it’ll all be ok.  Everytime voters elect a Republican for president, it wasn’t because of the Democrat candidate’s failings.  It was because voters were just too uninformed and shortsighted to see that someone like John Kerry or Al Gore really did know what was best for the American people.  One day, voters are going to snap out of their trance and realize the elitist garbage that is being spewed by the Democrats.  Obama might have just made some folks in Pennsylvania understand.

Where’s the Love?

Apr 13, 08 2:24 AM

These types of articles always crack me up the most:

“No love for Texas’ gay Republicans”

This was sent to me by someone recently and I just had a moment from my busy tax schedule to actually read some of my e-mail.

Basically the jist of the article informs us that even though Log Cabin Republicans in Texas are dissenting, many Republican politicians still refuse to show the gay community the love it deserves.

So what?  A few hillbillies (not that Texans are “hillbillies”, Phil and Jenn) are still living in the dark ages.  Do the same hillbillies that live in weed-filled trailer parks all over the country and vote Democrat to keep their welfare qualify as gay haters as well?  Because the last time I checked, it was the same small-mindedness that usually leads to this kind of a conclusion on the topic of homosexuality.

Moreover; the statistics are there, folks.  Arizona voted against a ban on gay marriage – a red state.  California voted overwhelmingly in support of Proposition 22 in 2000 (a bill that keeps the definiton of marriage as “man/woman”).  Oregon voters in 2004 voted overwhelmingly in support of the FMA.  Bush lost in that state in a landslide remember?  This tells us that liberals are voting against it as well and even to a higher degree.

Let’s not forget Kerry’s admission in 2004 that he was also against gay marriage.

The only difference is the response.  It doesn’t matter how uneducated and ignorant you are in this world - but the only way to get someone like Ellen to whine about it (as she did recently on her show about a Republican Congresswoman) or to get media attention over it is to have the ignorance being uttered by someone with an “R” at the end of their name.

I promise you if that ignorance is ever going to be defeated, it’s best for LCR to stay on the Republican side of the fence.
