He DIDN'T say he would stop it to those who attended that fundraiser because THEY are all for it, too. Those people who went to that fundraiser want more outsourcing too. They don't care about the people here losing jobs, they think that's cool. Then he has the temerity to say "they" CLING to guns because they're "bitter"? He can't get his head out of his own ass, let alone his backers.<BR/>He can't even explain what he meant by his revealing comment because he is so arrogant and insulated he doens't think anyting's wrong with being a tool of corporate crooks.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22563831.post-81622616817609995982008-04-14T16:14:00.000-07:002008-04-14T16:14:00.000-07:00rk,What Obama MEANT to say: "Those HOPEless losers...rk,<BR/><BR/>What Obama MEANT to say: <BR/><BR/>"Those HOPEless losers will never have all this!

Recent example: instead of saying "I want orange juice" when offered coffee at the Indy diner he could have said <BR/><BR/>"No thank you mam, if I drank that cup of coffee you're offering me you may as well leave the whole pot cause that shit'll keep me up at fuck77ng night" etc., you know, "when in Rome, do as the Romans?" Jesus, this is kindergarten social etiquette and this guy calls himself a politician????????????????? <BR/><BR/>Ask yourself "what would John Edwards do?" Edwards believes in social justice and acts like it. He would have made sure to make that waitress feel like an equal and not pull rank, but that's the thing that "I Got Mine" people could give a shit about. They don't believe in the spirit of community -- only in what they have amassed compared to the Jones and just want more, more... <BR/><BR/>*Obama's backers picked the greenest and most maleable elitist they could run (the proverbial empty suit) to push through profitable legistlation that will shift tax burdens from privately held startups to Joe Taxpayer and don't happen to get the warmest fuzzies from Billary. Hope this clarifies my point.2Truthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06621258620190540140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22563831.post-73211294334224307942008-04-13T03:20:00.000-07:002008-04-13T03:20:00.000-07:00u're saying the same thing that Obama.
