The elitism of Obama is simply APALLING

[crimsonblue]

Barack Obama is, to be blunt, the single most elite candidate EVER to run for President. Obama grew up in an elitist mixed-race family and spent much of his youth in the uber-elite country of Indonesia. Obama attended an elite prep school on scholarship, then has the audacity to attend Harvard. Who does that, right? Obama even had the chutzpah and brass to run the Harvard Law Review. After his elite schooling, Obama chose the unacceptable elite career path of community organizer, where he assisted other elite minorities. Obama's first governmental job was as an elite member of the Illinois state legislature, which also produced the elitist Abraham Lincoln. During this time, the elitist Obama wrote a couple of books (wow, what kind of elitist does that?) and even, gasp, made money off of them. In addition to being an elitist member of the US Senate, Obama has also shown his elitism by making sure his kids have a normal childhood. His elitist wife even works (true Americans inherit their money).

John McCain, on the other hand is so un-elitist it isn't even funny. After getting into Naval Academy (with NO assistance from his father or grandfather's legacy), McCain finished an average Joe 894th out of 899 cadets, and still gained acceptance into everyday flight school. Humble McCain, as I prefer to call him, received low marks at flight school, but still became another figher pilot. After Vietnam, McCain sought to be truly one with the people, by running for Congress. McCain never lost his sense of average America as he aided Charles Keating in a few small and inconsequential controversies. McCain always stayed to to his humbleness when he opposed the "radical" Martin Luther King holiday. As we all know, only elitists care about civil rights. Throughout all of this, McCain maintained his roots with the people via multiple affairs and two marriages. How many of us have done that? During Hurricane Katrina, McCain decided, as would I, that birthday cakes with the President are fun and cool while helping the the victims would be tantamount to showing elite concern.

Sure, McCain was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, but Obama didn't have a spoon. I guess Obama thought he was too cool for that. While he stipulated that he doesn't "know much about the economy", McCain's suggestion to temporarily remove the gas tax would be a humble help to the struggling oil companies. After all, why would we want to tax oil in order to pay for roads and bridges, when 12 cents off at the pump will add $2 to everyone's pockets? Thank you John McCain for showing us how real humble Americans act.

[cbayer]

23. You could not possibly have read it and reached that conclusion. nt.

[dionysus]

28. uh, cliff, you should have read it first before replying, man

;)

[cliffordu]

33. OOPS -- My bad!! I was watchin MSNBC and was half looking at the

computer.....

I saw the headline and dumped...

I'm going to go up the road and kick the Hillary supporter's signs down.



SORRY !!!!

[boobooday]

2. You forgot something! He can't bowl, either!

:bounce:

[Cant trust em]

3. I know. What a jerk.

Seriously though. I'm sort of glad this "elitism" thing came up. I've been gotten a lot of humor mileage out of it.

[high density]

4. I thought Kerry was the most elite?

Get your GOP talking points straight, dumbass.

[Jane Austin]

5. You forgot something.

Obama's grandfather was a goat herder.

Top that, anybody!

[DavidDvorkin]

7. Very amusing

To those of us with senses of humor, anyway.

[RiverStone]

8. So if Obama is our nominee, will you vote for him? n/t

[Crunchy Frog]

15. I'm pretty sure the post was intended as sarcasm.

[Raine]

20. The poster was JOKING

making fun of those who claim Obama is too "elitist". :hi:

[RiverStone]

25. Ooops - lets just say I've grown intolerant of the...

Temper tantrum posters.

Tho in this case, my trigger finger jump the keyboard.

Thanks :hi:

[johnnydrama]

9. um, everybody

it was a joke.

[high density]

I guess so.

But there's a lot of stuff on here that reads like a joke, but people are dead serious about it.

[redqueen]

10. Hehehe... I think people aren't reading what you typed... but well done.

:hi:

[damonm]

11. ATTENTION ALL RESPONDERS....

Please activate sarcasm detectors before responding...

[Cant trust em]

18. Some of these responses are funnier than the OP.

Come on people. It's OK to laugh.

[cascadiance]

32. Though it would help our busy reading with some of these...

:sarcasm: :sarcasm: :sarcasm: :sarcasm:

[DearAbby]

12. Is it true

McCain said "I am just as good as George Bush, honest?"

:rofl:

[Elidor]

13. Some of them aren't getting it

Here I was thinking you were being too obvious, but you weren't obvious enough for some of these people. Perhaps if you beat them over the head with the sarcasm tag.

[izzybeans]

14. .

:rofl:

That was a good one. You should write for the Onion.

[DemsUnited]

16. thanks for making me smile on an otherwise not so fun day! EOM.

[TheDoorbellRang]

17. Heh. I guess no one reads past the headline anymore. Very Funny

But these days, not using the :sarcasm: tag will get you flamed around here. :D

[americanstranger]

19. Nice job.

Looks like you fooled a few people.

- as

[Spirochete]

21. Hehe. I liked that one.

Gave it the 5th rec, even.

[undeterred]

22. He needs to find out where elitist black men get haircuts, since he only spends $20

Maybe we should send him to see Bill Cosby or another rich black guy with hair.

[Mass]

24. Great thread, and the comments are even more amusing, because they show that people here cannot be

bothered reading. No surprise some here swallow every single MSM meme.

[cbayer]

26. You state my thoughts perfectly. nt.

[stillcool]

27. Another election..

where the English Language is taking a beating. I became an 'elitist' in 2004, because I drink 'green tea'. Since reaching that status, it's all gone down hill, starting with the 2004 election. I'm looking forward to latte liberals taking the crown. Perhaps when I'm no longer an elitist, I can get my teeth cleaned.

[Butch350]

29. Don't Forget The Clintons BS...

!!

[matcom]

30. great. another fucking MORON to add to my ignore list

that list is growing faster than my grass

[damonm]

31. Before you do that...

Turn ON your sarcasm detector, and reread the OP.

[crimsonblue]

37. I hope for your sake that your list isn't elite.

[Greyskye]

34. crimson blue - you're my HERO!

The replies from the folks who didn't actually read your masterpiece are killing me!

Here, many people reading your OP evidently don't have all their plug-ins. Maybe I can help them out...



:kick: and R.
:popcorn:

[Bucky]

35. I'm making elite tacos for dinner tonight.

I'll wash them down with my elite kool aid.

[crimsonblue]

38. Don't forget to wash it down with elite orange juice.

[Tim4319]

36. Don't forget the cavier draems and champaign wishes

of the the Southside of Chicago!

[nichomachus]

39. Ah yes, the posh life of a community organizer

much more elite than enduring all those grueling hours flying around in a beer bimbo's jet.

[Kber]

40. No no no!

This is the week he's an angry black man. Last week he was an elitist.

Keep up man!

:sarcasm:

[crimsonblue]

41. Damn it! the memo got put in my "Non-elite" mailbox instead of the "Elite" mailbox.

[Kber]

42. No worries. As soon as the Republicans decide which is scarier

Harvard or the Hood, they will settle on a theme and we can all go about our normal business.

[rucky]

43. Excuse me, crimsonblue...

but have you any Grey Poupon?

[crimsonblue]

44. Sorry old chap, I left it in my other Rolls.

But do you have change for a $1000. I didn't have a chance to stop by the bank today, and I've only got $20,000 in my pocket. I mean, how am I supposed to buy city blocks with only $20,000 in cash?

[Hepburn]

45. Your RW McCain worshiping stupidity is even more appalling.

Your point?

[crimsonblue]

46. the point is that you look stupid.

Take a minute and read the OP.

[Hepburn]

47. Your RW McCain worshiping stupidity is even more appalling.

Your point?

[crimsonblue]

48. sigh...

i guess you are too stupid to understand satire and comedy. sucks to be you.

[Greyskye]

50. I think your Scottie ate your

sense of humor.

Try reading the OP again - all the way through this time. Wait - install this first!


:rofl:

[uponit7771]

49. LOFL!! The black guy who just paid off his student loans is the elitist?!?!? LOFL!

[uponit7771]

51. that uppity ....well.....you know

[mrreowwr_kittty]

52. Well done. nt
