Kevin, LOL.

You might want to consult a dictionary.  There is a HUGE difference between not liking someone and hating someone.  Talk about grasping at straws.  That's comedy gold.

"Elitist" is one of those words that gets thrown about as though it were self-
explanatory. Can you be a little more specific as to what it is you find
offensive about them?

2.  They don't like Obama increasing the Federal budget, the taxation on the $250+ crowd, or an Iraq timetable (authentically feeling like we can't leave until we have a strong ally in the region, and that such a thing really will make America safer from terrorists.)  I respect these folks a lot more, as it seems like they're actually grappling with our country's issues for which there is never an easy solution.

This describes my reasoning as I've said many times in this thread.

Michelle Obama is an elitist? huh? And Cindy McCain said Obama has run the dirtiest campaign in history against her husband.  Yeah, pick the better first lady.

As to William Ayers - if it's so horrible that Obama sat on boards with Ayers, what does that say for all the students who were taught by the man? I believe I said it some pages back, and others have echoed it: if Ayers is ok with the Justice Department, the state of Illinois, the city of Chicago, and the University of Chicago, what does Sean Hannity know that all these fine folks don't?

down to 24 days now? Praise Jebus.

Sorry.  Had things to do in the real world so couldn't camp the boards.  :P

Marcio, have I ever defended Bush?  I'm not understanding why you are asking the question.

++++

Naaa, I just wanted to hear your opinion, can you share?

Sure, just go back a few pages and read.  You even replied about what I said in the post indicating you read where I said what I thought of Bush.

If Cindy McCain wants to get dirty campaigners she should look to the people working with her husband to get him elected.  They fucking trashed him, and their daughter, in 2000.  Lie down with dogs, wake up with fleas, Mrs. McCain.

Yes.  During the campaigning for the primaries they came across as talking down to people.
