Stop calling Obama an elitist, you ignorant peasants
Bill Maher, SalonThis is either (1) a brilliant self-parody, executed with enough irony to start a taconite mine, (2) an attempt at humor gone horribly, unfunnily wrong, (3) the most tone-deaf, unpersuasive op-ed ever written, (4) a desperate cry for help, or (5) a leak of an actual Obama campaign internal memo. Vote in the combox if you like. New Rule: Republicans need to stop saying Barack Obama is an elitist, or looks down on rural people, and just admit you don't like him because of something he can't help, something that's a result of the way he was born. Admit it, you're not voting for him because he's smarter than you. . . . Barack Obama can't help it if he's a magna cum laude Harvard grad and you're a Wal-Mart shopper who resurfaces driveways with your brother-in-law. Americans are so narcissistic that our candidates have to be just like us. . . . Count me as a vote for option (4). Posted by: Mike 2008-09-06 |
