“You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them… And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not.
“And it’s not surprising then they 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.” B. Hussein Obama
Barack Obama has a bad habit of speaking the truth regardless of how many votes it might cost him.
'Like a lot of small towns in the Midwest'. ... He just keeps nailing it though.
Hell, I have those bitter, hate-filled, anti-everything, gun-clinging, phony-religious punks living right here in my neighborhood. I know exactly what Barack is saying.
People are just going to have to get used to dealing with the truth, I guess. Might not win him any votes but it sure stirs it up.
