Finally, the real Obama

Obama recently remarked at a San Francisco fund-raiser that small-town Pennsylvania voters, bitter over their economic circumstances, “cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them” as a way to explain their frustrations.

Talk about elitist and out-of-touch. Pennsylvanians don't "cling to guns" out of bitterness--hunting is a way of life there. They don't "cling to religion"--they worship God. They don't have "antipathy to people who aren't like them"--they just want the immigration laws enforced.

The real Obama has come out. He is an elitist snob, more comfortable in the academies of Chicago and Harvard than Altoona, Pennsylvania. He associates himself with radicals like the racist Reverend Wright, '60s radicals, and woolly-headed San Francisco liberals. He combines the worst qualities of Jimmy Carter, Michael Dukakis, John Kerry, and Adlai Stevenson. Such a man cannot be commander-in-chief.

Oh, and the economy in Pennsylvania is not that bad--its unemployment rate is at or below the national average. I suppose it only looks that way when your wife has a $300,000 job with the University of Chicago (the raise coming after a Obama sent a grant Chicago's way) and she has "never been proud of America".
