Effete Snobs for Obama

[digidigido]

I hear Hillary bashing "elites", it's kind of odd since she graduated from 2 elite schools, Yale Law School and Wellesley. So now she doesn't want to listen to economists about the economy because they're elite?
She sounds like a Republican, I hate to say it, on policy she's not that bad, but on integrity... YUCH. I hear shades of Spiro Agnew "effete snobs" how did she turn into this? She's too smart to be this clueless
Anyone who wants to be President this badly should not be elected

1. And remember that hoity toit school she sent her kid to "Sidwell Friends"

What a fucking hippie leotard show.

10. $27,790 per year

But they have scholarships for black students from their "Black Student Fund" and latino students from their "Latino Student Fund." http://www.sidwell.edu/admissions/tuition_financialaid.asp

And don't forget Stanford and Oxford. I wonder if she had any student loans?

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

2. She's the James Bond of politics.

She can have a moment and shed a few tears as she finds herself.
She can shoot some whiskey while doing square dancing.
She can hit the law library and write a few compelling law review articles.
She can talk about nuking civilian cities in foreign countries.
She can be the princess of peace and put the children first.

Don't question it.

3. Obama went to Columbia and Harvard, and Michelle went to Princeton and Harvard -

so that kind of mutes your point....especially since he cannot connect with working class voters.

8. When you've applied the skills you've picked up in Pandering 101 your whole life...

...it's amazingly easy to simulate "relating to the working man".

What was Sir Lawrence Olivier who said, "the key to acting is sincerity--once you can fake that, the rest is easy"?

19. So you admit that BO hasn't been in touch with working people in his

living memory? That's big of you.

20. Only one candidate now has shown themselves to the the Mistress of Pander(tm)

One guess.

9. He connected with me and virtually every white, working class

person I know. He carried my very white and very working class state by 17%. And a midwestern state at that.

[VolcanoJen]

15. I'm a working class voter, and he sure as hell connected with me

Enough with the sweeping generalizations from the Clintonistas, when even the polling cross-tabs don't support it.

Who are you, Joe Scarborough?

[grasswire]

4. kinda weird that the "elites" of America are supporting Obama...

...how do you explain that if she's the elite?

[Ashy Larry]

12. It depends what kind of elites you are talking about.

Obama wins among college professors and other kinds of intellectual elites. Free traders and other kinds of financial elites are for Hillary. Thats why an elite person like Rupert Murdoch would support Hillary and an elite person like Robert Reich supports Obama.

16. Oh, that's good

5. Makes About as Much Sense as . . .

Chimpie posing as a shit-kicking Texan, with a grandfather who was a Senator from Connecticut -- AFTER he helped finance Hitler!

Hillary's tough, no doubt. But she's pretty pathetic posing as Annie Oakley.

[VolcanoJen]

17. You know what has always bugged me?

How come Chimpy is the only freaking member of his Connecticut blue-blood family that speaks with a shit-kickin' Texas accent?

6. "Anyone who wants to be President this badly should not be elected"

YES. That's what I've been saying!

Anyone who would stoop to the levels Hillary has to be President - I don't WANT them to be President.

Something about that lack of integrity and inability to win on her own merits without the race and class-baiting, smear tactics, lies, pretentous hypocrisy and climbing into bed with the Republicans and using Karl Rove's campaign playbook (which I'm beginning to believe she WROTE herself) - all against another DEMOCRAT - just sorta bothers me.

[Hoof Hearted]

11. Then it seems incumbent on Obama to droop out..

Your criterion, not mine.

[sandnsea]

7. You have to listen hard on policy

I thought she would be okay on college. But I caught a snippet where she said she was going to reduce interest rates and expand the existing tax credit. That's not going to help. People are still going to have student loans that are more than a house used to cost. So she doesn't even get that. She's not good on policy, politics, or anything else.
