Thanks, Jbldmnn, You hit on the head. Obama, his posting brigade, and the media have really helped him spin an unsult to white working class folks and others. The fact Obama "recognized" the legions of people who are outraged and discouraged by racial quotas and other affirmative actions, exported jobs, illegal immigration and these factors combined effects on the lives and expectations of huge percentages of our country's population does not mean he agrees with them.
In fact, given the words and place they were spoken--at a wine and cheese type fundraiser and in his Wright Speech--Obama has not identiy nor any sympathy for the people he dismissed as "bitter".
We are finaly ahveing a few media images of THE REAL OBAMA--looking down at the camera with a snarl on his face. Buth tghey've come awfully late and not often enough.
