In light of Obama’s recent elitist remarks, I thought I’d post some more elitist, anti-religious words.

“How Can I Keep from Singing”

1. My life flows on in endless song,
above earth’s lamentation.
I hear the clear, though faroff hymn
that hails a new creation.
Refrain:
No storm can shake my inmost calm
while to that Rock I’m CLINGING.
Since love is Lord of heaven and earth,
how can I keep from singing?

2. Through all the tumult and the strife,
I hear that music ringing.
It finds an echo in my soul.
How can I keep from singing?
(Refrain)

3. What though my joys and comforts die?
I know my Savior liveth.
What though the darkness gather round?
Songs in the night he giveth.
(Refrain)

4. The peace of Christ makes fresh my heart,
a fountain ever springing!
All things are mine since I am his!
How can I keep from singing?
(Refrain)

10 smackeroos to bet BHO wonít be seen in a camouflage suit, shot gun in hand, with a bunch of ìbeer buddiesî. Pity, I would be real happy to lose the money, just to see the picture, though. However, I think that wife of his is going to disown him if it happens.

Obama’s San Francisco remarks clash diametrically with his pious unction for M. L. King a few days ago, when he made much of how the most important thing of all was “religious faith.” Who do all the atheist liberal politicians think they are kidding?

“And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy toward people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.”

That statement is not an off-the-cough, slip of the tongue. This is the real Obama who believes in a white version of Black Rage.

Some of you may remember ‘black rage’ refers to a purported psychological phenomena and ‘innovative’ defense proposed, but not used, for the 1994 Colin Ferguson mass murder trial. Ferguson’s lawyers William Kunstler and co- counsel Ronald Kuby argued that he should not be held criminally because he was overcome with rage by his perceived society’s racist discrimination against African-Americans. – Wikipedia

Obamaís only major contact with religious people are those at Trinity UCC. From the ìGD AmeriKKKaî, I get the sense that they may be frustrated and bitter, so by obvious extension .. what guns are they clinging to ?

Look, Obama can’t just talk himself out of this one. He’s going to have to make it visual, be seen in farmer jeans as he’s walking through a rural potato field, spitting tobacco and saying “Yall”, or something along those lines. Or be seen hunting birds with hicksters from mudville, maybe, ripping out beer farts and remarking, “ah, that was a good one.” Things like that. Things that we hicks understand.

This is rich. At the end of this article about Hillary coming down hard on Obama today were the following lines about a rally that her husband Bill had attended:

Bill Clinton was the featured speaker of the rally but avoided commenting on Obama's remarks. When asked about it afterward, he said simply, "I agree with what Hillary said."

Looks Bill wanted to avoid getting another phone call!

And by the way, we like it this way. Why right now we are sitting back and watching and listening to people carry on because the price of corn went up. Don’t those hicks know that the market only goes down when it comes to corn? And rice is up too and so is wheat and soy beans. Everything else can go up, wages, health care costs, everything…but corn? Hell no. Can’t let that happen.

You can go back decades and find that the prices of commodities remained flat, year after year. People whined about subsidies, but the actual alternative of higher market prices was not even a possibility as far as most urban people were concerned. After all it says it right there in the Constitution…life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness and cheap food.

So if rural people are bitter about anything it is the arrogance of an urban society which seems to think that our love of guns and God is part of disease and while it is just awful that we are poor and all..the government really should do something about the price of corn.

Puhleaze.

I live in the country on the outskirts of a small town of 4500 people. We even have real Chinese people running a real Chinese restaurant and we have not lynched them yet.

I own a shotgun and a bible.

If I am bitter it is because a bunch of sissies and cry babies are trying to take the country over so that they surrender in Iraq and create a nice fat nanny state right here.

And all us trailer trash…white trash kind of people know that no matter what they say we will end up with the s**t end of the stick…happens every damn time. We are used to do it. We are used to the regional snobbery and elitism.

I told a friend of mine that it would be easier for a black man with money and an Ivy League education to win the presidency than it would for a poor white man to even get a job mowing the lawn at the White House.

I rest my case.

During the glory years of the American auto industry, assembly plants were plagued by employees who would call in sick on the first day of hunting season. Most likely, these people all had guns, and they were among the best-paid blue collar workers in the history of the world.

Gun ownership has a lot more to do with family heritage than with any “bitterness.”
