Obama Just a Typical Politican

At a fundraiser in San Francisco Barack Hussein Obama described the voters of small town Pennsylvania thusly:
[I]t’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.
Needless to say, that when those remarks leaked out people in small towns all over the nation felt insulted.

Obama responded to the uproar today by insisting that this was a “a typical sort of political flare-up,” and attempted to dismiss his critics.

But the issue goes much deeper than whether he misspoke, or poorly choose his words (considering how eloquent he is reported to be, that would be something in itself). The issue is what he really thinks and believes about the values and traditions of the voters in places like small towns in Pennsylvania. Watch the video below if you'd like to know what Obama really thinks, and in his own words and voice.

One more thing that caught my attention: You notice how Obama attaches the word "typical" to anything that might be damaging to his campaign.

He described his grandmother's views towards black people as that of a "typical white person."
Now, he's trying to downplay the insult to small town folks in Pennsylvania by insisting that the heat over his remarks are just a "typical sort of political flare up."

What I've come to learn as I find out more about Barack Obama is that he is just a typical black politician!
