You know what I think when I hear the mouth breathers calling Obama an "elitist"?
I think "thank fucking god, it's about time". See, I like over-intelligent elitists, especially for jobs that require a great deal of intelligence, thought, and poise. I don't want some fucking frat-boy in charge because "you can go drink beer with him". Fuck that.
You know what I want for a president? I want someone whose brain is so fucking big it deforms their skull. I want them to be the smartest motherfucker in every room they walk in. I want other world leaders so convinced they can read their puny minds that they don't dare try to pull shit on them. When you ask them about the history of some country, I want them to smile at me and say "I'll try to put it in small words for you", and I'm not stupid.
See, I want a smart president, who's not afraid to say "Yeah, I did graduate from Harvard law, and I do teach constitutional law at the national level, and I did use my fucking monstrous brain to help out people without getting paid for it, and I can say "nuclear" correctly every fucking time, and when I'm bored, I calculate PI in fucking Sanskrit." What is it with people that they want fucking idiots in charge? I want to feel like an idiot next to my President, because I want my President to be THAT FUCKING SMART.
Fuck that. Gimme the guy who can stand in front of Google, (GOOGLE!) and talk about situations where you wouldn't use a bubble sort. Dude, the fact that he even knows what a bubble sort is puts him far above Mr. "I never sent an email".
Also, don't give me that bullshit about "He can't type". Speech Recognition bitches. I bet if you showed a high end speech recognition setup to McCain, he'd scream WITCHCRAFT! and run out of the room. Yeah, he got tortured in Vietnam, and that sucked, and no, I don't blame him for cracking. Lemme jam a bamboo shoot up your fucking fingernails, and you'll do anything I ask with a fucking smile as long as I never do that again. You waterboard me? I'm your fucking slut for life, just don't ever do that again.
However, having a physical disability, regardless of cause does not get you out of being aware of what the fuck is going on around you. It just means you might not be as quick at things as someone else. What, if there's a crises, McCain would say "I was tortured, I can't deal with this?" Da Fuck?
Besides, fucking Roosevelt had fucking POLIO, needed a wheelchair, and he used some of the most advanced technology of the time. If FDR could keep up with the times, so can John Fucking McCain.
So in conclusion: GO ELITIST ASSHOLES!

And you'd still be an improvement over the incumbent. He wasn't a random douchebag, he was a selected douchebag.
Smart people fucking rock the universe (or at least try to understand it).
As for people who use "elitist" as a disparaging term: you can't make this stuff up.

Elitists fucking suck. Sure they know things I don't but if I don't know it then it doesn't need knowing! Nuff said. I'm also appalled that neither of the candidates have come out against the LHC. Hello! End of the world much? Those elitists don't care if we die in a black hole, it's all "Higgs Boson blah blah blah." Well if I walk out the door tomorrow and see a gapping maw where my porch was then I'm going to be pissed. If the elitists have their way we will have a world devouring black hole in every pot instead of a chicken. And I just don't roll that way.

The trouble with our highly educated leaders is that they tend to forget that the world is just not fair. They respond by spending my money to fix that unfairness. Somehow the Ivy league crowd needs to remember that along with the freedom to pursue happiness comes the freedom to fail. By fail I mean starve or Live under tyrannical theocracies or even ..gasp.. work their way through college at a state university.
Obama will win the election but the republicans can remain confident that our system of government is so broken that his presidency will be similar to the last brilliant thinker we had in the top spot.. Jimmy Carter. Jimmy was a wonderful community organizer but his legacy brings to mind a picture a muddy desert expanse full of broken helicopters.
For my part the best I can think to do is to lift my children up to join those Ivy crowned elitist. College applications for Yale go out in just a few weeks. Meanwhile all of our money is going overseas and I will be comfortably destitute by the time my space industry job gets wiped out in two years. Then my kids will attend Yale for free and my lovely wife and I will enjoy the true riches of government welfare. Go Obama! I can't wait.
Election Ballot 2008 : Pick One --
1. Socialist who had no impact during the two years he worked in washington and choose to sit beside his children each sunday while a nut job spews racist hate from a pulpit.
2. Military underachiever who was last in his class at every school he attended and still got to pilot a $10M plane for a living.. sry Dad I wrecked the plane. It's okay son I have plenty. Bonus points for the torture.. that does wonders for your ability to make good decisions.
At least my prozac is going to be cheaper under socialized health care.
PS: Currently looking for a job in the healthcare management field. Experience includes managing other multi-million dollar government projects designed to kill large numbers of people.

I highly doubt either Obama or McCain thinks the world is fair. Telling a black man with interracial parents and a single mother in this country he needs to remember the world is not fair, or a guy who was tortured for years he needs to remember the world is not fair is going to get you laughed at. However, there's nothing wrong with wanting to make things better for those who need more help. Keep in mind who is calling the dude who isn't from a moneyed background, or didn't dump his wife for a rich babe "elitiest". Of the two, I know who has more of a clue about what it's like to be poor in this country, and it's never been McCain. He's had powerful patrons his entire life.

Oversimplification. Carter wasn't much of a community organizer, he's a guy who left a promising military career to do the right thing by his family. He's a guy who when the helos crashed, took full responsibility. He's a guy who graduated Annapolis and was accepted *by* Rickover himself into the Nuclear Submarine program. Carter's a guy who not only did the right thing, but on the occasions where it blew up into place, didn't blame everyone else for it. Carter also had, *unlike our current administration*, more military experience than anyone since Eisenhower, and was rather hard for the military to bullshit. They hated him for that.
For my part the best I can think to do is to lift my children up to join those Ivy crowned elitist. College applications for Yale go out in just a few weeks. Meanwhile all of our money is going overseas and I will be comfortably destitute by the time my space industry job gets wiped out in two years. Then my kids will attend Yale for free and my lovely wife and I will enjoy the true riches of government welfare. Go Obama! I can't wait.
Ivy league schools have, consistently, *far* better private financial aid availble than anything from the government. Harvard, last I heard, offered a free ride to kids whose parents make less than 80K a year. So if your kid goes to Yale for free, it won't be because of the government. It will be because those elitist bastards whom you think have no clue about "unfairness" are working far harder than the government to make sure that smart kids don't get screwed because they don't have money.
Maybe you should research this shit a little more before you open your mouth on it. You get less foot that way.

Funny how you don't call out the hatred that old rich white guys like McCain and BushCo listen to from the pulpit and advocate. What, white pastors advocating hate is okay? As well, again, Obama actually did have an impact, as much as any junior senator with no real seniority can have. You do understand how seniority works, right? It's how McCain can be on almost any comittee he wants, even though he rarely votes on anything.
2. Military underachiever who was last in his class at every school he attended and still got to pilot a $10M plane for a living.. sry Dad I wrecked the plane. It's okay son I have plenty. Bonus points for the torture.. that does wonders for your ability to make good decisions.
He got shot down. Lots of people get shot down in wars. Vietnam was a target-rich environment for SAM crews. As well, lots of rather famous people didn't do well in various military academies. For example, Patton had to repeat his first year. He is overplaying the POW issue, but then, he's trying to get everyone to forget he's been a senator for almost 30 years, and had a lot to do with the decisions that led up to our current imbroglio.
You might want to stop oversimplifying things so much.

Obama? A socialist?? That's a good one! ROFL
How can someone with such poor understanding of political ideologies expect to be taken seriously?

Oh that's to be expected Fred. If you aren't for locking the population in a cage, and seeing who survives, you're a socialist.

So stereotyping is ok but over-simplification is bad? Guess I need to read the rules.
Obama and McCain both voted to have the government purchase bad "paper" making the US government the effective owner of large numbers of private homes. They also approved the government "oversight" of the failed Fanny and Freddie psuedo-businesses ( is it really a private enterprise if you can just make a call and get the treasury to send a truck full of money? ). Transfering the control of private business and private property to the government sounds a lot like socialism.
There seems to be a bias in your response to think that I am pro-McCain. Not so. If I could I would elect Adam Putnam but given the choices I must give Obama the nod. That probably surprises you John.
I make a ridiculous salary building things that only governments can afford to buy. Almost certainly I will loose my job shortly after Obama is elected. So I will vote for obama and look forward to the opportunity to once again have the government pay for me to go to school. Bonus.. Harvard is free for families that earn less than $60K. That will be a good deal for my kid who is off to college soon.
enjoying your banter as usual. now back to work. somebody has to pay for AIG executives to get pedicures.
