TERRE HAUTE, Ind. - In the midst of an assault from his rivals, a defensive Barack Obama said Friday that many working-class Americans are angry and bitter over economic inequalities and have lost faith in Washington — and, as a result, vote on the basis of other issues such as gun protections or gay marriage.

The Illinois senator's analysis of what motivates working-class voters came after chief rival Hillary Rodham Clinton accused him of looking down on such voters. Clinton rebuked Obama on Friday for similar remarks he made privately last Sunday to a group of donors in San Francisco.

MY GOD. Can this shitbag be anymore of an elitest liberal who hates rural America?



"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 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."

People are "bitter" for being religious? We have to be "bitter" to want to protect and practice our 2nd amendment rights?

This shitbag is so out of touch....

I agree that many are 'bitter,' - although I think that word too strong - they work long hours and see no end in sight. They believe that some have it easy and they wonder why not them. They watch TV which presents an alternate reality. We live in a sort of culture of make believe as Derrick Jensen writes. But both Frank and Bageant have written good stuff on this issue.


"Americans have a six grade knowledge of economics and politics? Why do the working poor vote for republicans.

"Joe Bageant joined 9am to discuss his new book 'Deer Hunting with Jesus' which he wrote after returning to his home town of Winchester, Virginia.""
