Obama ran his mouth in one of the richest parts of San Francisco. This is his base. This is his crowd. This is where he is free to speak his mind. This is a mentality from the left that you see from the handbook of Thomas Frank's "What's the matter with Kansas?" This is what you hear when people tell people like me and a lot of you that we "vote against your best interest." What Obama is telling all of us who lived in small towns is the following. "I don't respect you." That is the number one reason why this is going to hurt him.

We take care of ourselves out here. We do not need or want your "help." I do not cling to guns, although I do cling to freedom. You should know also know that on average, gun owners have a higher standard of living than non gun owners. Cling to religion? You of all people kept running your mouth about how religious you are. Bitter? No, we aren't except we do have no tolerance of people who claim to know what is best for us. That last part is the biggest problem with limosine libs.

Religion, guns, and xenophobia—the opiate of the masses in the Rust Belt.

4. Some people cling to religion not because they are bitter but because they believe it, and because faith in God gives them purpose and comfort.

Ouch. This applies to O'bama himself, and his Wright Wing. (Is he clinging to his religion because he's bitter? Looks like it).

It seems that the more he speaks, it becomes clear that he is the bitter one. He surrounds himslef with bitter hate-filled, people like his wife, “reverend”, friends, associates, etc. Bitterness you can believe in.

This shows how Karl Rove is ahead of the curve. He’s been talking about Hussein’s arrogant streak during the last several weeks.

The recent opiate of the masses bs proves it.

This is what Obama was saying.

You shouldn’t turn to your religion when times get tough!

Turn to the government to heal all your ails!

Trust me, not God.

No, we aren't except we do have no tolerance of people who claim to know what is best for us.

We have a deep resolve to maintain individual thought and to take care of ourselves as we see best to do it.

God gave us capability of reason and not an equal peer on the face of this earth is going to take it away!

The Clinton commercial writers are as happy with this as Rove was with “I actually did vote for the $87 billion before I voted against it.”

all great points, but I still do not understand how he got away with “Typical white person “ on much the same ground.

That's why I want Obama to be nominated. I want the country to see up close what a liberal is really like.

Obama’s follow up comments are as bad as his “bitter” one.

He has since said “I said something that everyone knows is true.”

Too dumb to stop digging. Dangerous.

It’s not the statement that they are ‘’bitter’’ that is the problem. It’s the suggestion that’s why they embrace guns and God.

As though those things are bad.

Why is antipathy toward “free trade” used as the cause of all the ‘bitterness’?

Growing union demands & rising taxes in the U.S. have led to capital flight, not “free trade” Agreements per se.

We should be mad at Labor Unions & Govt (high taxes) - not “trade.”

Thanks, Unions & Gov’t.

Though the Obamanation is an elitist racist ant-American idiot ... he’s a frigging genius compared to the abject imbeciles who would support his sorry ass

“small-town Pennsylvanians and Midwesterners “cling to guns or religion” because they are “bitter” about their economic status”

The fall TV ad featuring this will make Willie Horton seem like a boy scout. The words are bad enough, but posted on in ad with his own voice overlay is the nail in the coffin...

Love the way gun ownership is portrayed by BO as a sign of mental illness or a psychological disorder:

‘They’re stressed by job losses, and so - being depressed - they buy guns...’

My husband and I have both been fully employed over for three decades and — WE OWN SEVERAL GUNS.

Sheesh.

Try another excuse for gun grabbing - that one won’t fly...

This proves that Hillary’s a tad smarter than Obama. She has the same sneering, condescending attitude toward small town folks as he does, but she’s smart enough not to exhibit it so directly.

He conceded that he “didn’t say it as well as I should have.

He said it well enough for the people to get an understanding of his mind set.

What he meant to say in Indiana was he should have kept his mouth shut so you wouldn’t know what he was thinking.
