Obama doesn't need to defend his comments
 

Because they're true.

They aren't demeaning, they're sympathetic.

No kidding. I hate Hillary even more for claiming that people aren't bitter and cozying up to the gun nuts. If she somehow wins the nomination, I am not going to vote for her. It's people like her that make voters bitter!

The sad thing is, the backlash he's getting for this is probobly going to work against him. Its sad, people are too prideful and close-minded to admit that Obama had a point. I expect that puppet McCain to attacking him, but for Hillary to attack him it just reeks of desperation.

It is true what he said, I just read right now what he said. He is telling the truth, I can't believe people actually believe he isn't right. Dipshits.

What were the comments? I'm so bad at keeping track of things.

"Barack Obama expressed regret Saturday for saying that small-town Americans embittered by job losses cling to religion, guns and hostility toward immigrants to explain their frustrations."

Hillary is such a cunt.

if hiliary ruins this fucking election for the demoracts she better fuckin plan on crossing that new york canadian border before she becomes the most hated woman in america. i like hilary too, shes highly intelligent and i think she has good intentions as far as politicians go, but she just looks pathetic at this point. she shoulda shook obamas hand and wished him luck a long time ago, its clear obama is ready to lead this country.

I think Hillary has been getting reemed in the ass by John Kerry a million times. She exudes his lack of charisma and lack of progressivisim and sway towards right wing agendas.

yes but the real question is he?

yes. i hate to say so. but fuck yes. a cunt from hell.

so it has come to this bullshit again, power politics, voting for personalities ratehr then politics? just like every other popularity contest election that has ever occurred since the beginning of American so-called democracy. rarely is there in substance to be found, just ignorance and apathy.

it's the shiiiiiitsem, maaaaaaaaaaan

no, seriously. what i posted in my reply to anngella summarizes my take on hillary's campaign. she'd rather destroy the democratic party than lose the nomination. does that make her a cunt? you bet.

Maybe this really will bite Hillary in the ass. Anybody who claims American voters aren't bitter really has no place calling somebody else "out of touch".

this little "bitter comment" fiasco is far from devoid of ideological content.


“I’m sure that Senator Clinton feels like she’s doing me a great favor, because she’s been deploying most of the arguments that the Republican Party will be using against me in November,” he said, a smile easing across his face. “So it’s toughening me up. I’m getting run through the paces.”

on the one hand, comparing clinton to a republican is obviously an attempt at returning to the offensive. on the other hand, if you look at what she's been saying about this... not to mention her stance on a lot of issues... it's not that much of a stretch.

I'm convinced Hillary lives in her own world. Fuck her.

they all live in their own worlds.
