Obama's Mean Snobbery: Religion as Crutch
By J. Grant Swank Jr. (04/12/08)
"It's not surprising then they (small town people) 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," Barack Obama said.
Obama was saying small town folk hold to guns because they’re “bitter and angry.”
No. Americans have guns because it’s their right.
He said they “cling. . .to religion. .. “ for the same frustrations.
No. Americans hold to faith because they believe in the biblical God and His ethic for daily life.
He said they are irritated due to not understanding people “like them.”
No. Obama is revealing his own blackism from Jeremiah Wright’s tirades.
He said they are upset due to prejudice against immigrants..
No. Americans are angry at the mess in government that won’t deal with the immigration chaos.
He said they are “angry” due to “anti-trade sentiment.”
No. That makes Americans sound irrational regarding outsourcing. They are not irrational. They are logical and that gives them a legitimate right to be “angry and bitter” on that matter.
Obama is so off-base it makes me legitimately angry and bitter against Barack Obama.
