Just My Rant

OK, I’ve really had enough of this bullshit coming out of Hillary’s mouth lately, I swear this woman will say anything to appease whomever she is talking to at a given moment. The new one, of course, is Obama’s comments to a private fund raising event. Just in case you missed it here it is:

“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.”

Now first let me say, anyone that feels there is something wrong with that statement has their head so far up their ass they may need the jaws of life to get it back out.

But you know Hillary, she will distort and use any comment she can get her hands on to try and save her miserable ass, you can tell she is desperate when she takes the Republican stance to attack someone that is telling the truth!

If you aren’t, or don’t know someone that is bitter about how this government has ignored their needs while lining their corporate buddy’s accounts you are either filthy stinking rich or you live in a cave! HELL YES people are ‘bitter’ and for damn good reasons!

But maybe we are too stupid to understand the meaning of bitter, maybe Hillary and McCain have an elevated education that allows them the insight to see something we don’t see. So let’s look at the definition of ‘bitter’, just because we are all stupid and didn’t pass 5th grade English:

bitter

1. Having or being a taste that is sharp, acrid, and unpleasant.
2. Causing a sharply unpleasant, painful, or stinging sensation; harsh: enveloped in bitter cold; a bitter wind.
3. Difficult or distasteful to accept, admit, or bear
4. Proceeding from or exhibiting strong animosity
5. Resulting from or expressive of severe grief, anguish, or disappointment
6. Marked by resentment or cynicism

OK, the first and second definition have nothing to do with this scenario but lets look at #3, #4 and #5

HMM, Difficult or distasteful to accept, admit, or bear .. does this sound familiar? How about the fact people are losing their homes and jobs while Wall Street brokerages get bailed out by the government, while the executives that ran these companies into the ground get billion dollar bonuses. How about the fact people can barely afford to put gas in their car to get to work, or the fact are being raped every time they buy groceries? Bitter? NAH everything’s just peachy right?

The next one, Resulting from or expressive of severe grief, anguish, or disappointment. Why would people in the US, small town or not, ever feel this way? How about the fact that most these small towns haven’t had decent jobs in 20+ years? Maybe its because their sons and daughters are being killed in a war that we now know (some of us knew back than) was based on lies. How about the family members trying to survive while their loved one is half a world away for 12 - 15 months, always wondering if they will get a phone call telling them the person is dead?

Lastly let’s look at Marked by resentment or cynicism. Resentment and cynicism? Now how in the world could Americans ever feel like that? Could it be that maybe they resent the fact they put their trust in a government that sold them a bill of goods? Maybe its the fact they can not believe a word out of anyone in the White House’s mouth? Maybe, just MAYBE its the fact that they feel that no matter what they try to do it always seems the rich get richer and their lives just seem to get rougher!

The truth is Obama spoke the painful truth, the truth many Americans feel each and every day and for that they are trying to ’swift boat’ him and when I say ‘they’ I mean McCain and Hillary. Personally I don’t think he mis-spoke one stinking word, he hit the nail right on the head for many Americans. Yes they are mad, Yes they are angry, Yes they are bitter, Yes they are FED UP with the lies and bullshit spewed upon them every day of their lives. Personally I find it amazing some aren’t rioting in the streets by now, maybe they have become so bitter they have just given up!

I also see nothing wrong with his comment that people ‘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.’ Hell that’s plain old human nature. When people are downtrodden, when they are beaten down they ‘cling’ to things that do one of three things, either lifts their spirit (god), gives them some sense of security (guns) or gives them someone (or something) to blame for the mess they feel they are in (illegal immigration) … so again Obama was 100% ON THE MONEY. I actually feel he didn’t go far enough with his comments and he should NOT back down from them!

The SOONER Americans start telling the truth and stop being such babies about being able to handle the truth the sooner we can get things back on track. We have got to stop this god damned overdone ‘political correctness’ CRAP and start talking about what is really happening and THAT requires facing the truth head on!

So Hillary do me a favor and SHUT THE FUCK UP! You are no more in touch with what REAL Americans feel than a visitor from another planet! IF anyone is an elitist it would be you, you feel you are SO far above the rest of us that you can do or say anything and we will just sit back and suck it in … THAT is elitism!

Oh and by the way, just so you know I am a Pennsylvanian and I am DAMN bitter!
