Bitter? Oh you bet I am. I am tired of seeing everyone appalled at his remarks. The man spoke the truth, plain and simple. He sounds like he has been listening to us working class folks. I see around me wages that can not cover exspenses anymore, jobs with no room for growth despite the longer hours (hey layoffs mean less people to do the same amount of work, by the way) and people with out hope any more. I do not cling to religion or guns but lots of my people do. I hear polititians say they are going to help us out but I have never seen that. Trickle down, my ass. Senator Obama can speak for me any day.
Oh, some letter writers may be surprised to know that some one like me read Salon.com. I do every day. Along with several other websites. Lots of us like to keep ourselves informed. So there. Keep up the good work, Ms Walsh.
