A Little Cultural Education For Latte Liberals


Rumor has it that John McCain is going to be using bits of this in his latest commercial. I thought I'd post the original so those interested could see what the fuss was about before the fussin starts.

Bush II has a ranch in Texas. Reagan was notorious for working on his ranch to get away from Washington. Those guys knew how to connect with ordinary folks because they walked the walk. I would love to see Obama riding a horse. Or Hillary at an outdoor shooting range. Those are skills you don't learn in a weekend. That would be better than Dukakis riding a tank.

The idea that country bumpkins are the "real" Americas these days is rather...elitest.

Let's hope McCain uses some of his child bride's mob money to push his Mayberry crap...down America's throat.

Alphie is the perfect example of why Democrats lose the White House. And Obama is the perfect candidate to get the Alphies of the world riled up. I love it when a plan comes together.

John McCain ain't Ronald Reagan, Lee.

All the purdy ads in the world can't change that simple fact.

So alphie, is it your contention that the "country bumpkins" are NOT real Americans?

Lee's right, the inability of people like you to examine your biases and prejudices (or even to admit you have them) is the biggest reason why the Democrats have such a hard time winning the big one.

Phelps,

I think when he mentioned "grow our own smoke too" he wasn't talking tobacco (wink, nod).

Otherwise spot on.
