See Obama was listening to Rev. Wright in his church after all ... victimized and hate mongering Obama's words have come home to roost...Obama the "Wobegone Apollyon" is showing his true colors late in the game...
Remember canidate Obama's comments about how Americans are the bitter clingersWell, he just made essentially the same comment once again, confirming hiscontinued disdain for Christians in the US
Here's his famous comment during a fundraiser in San Francisco in 2008:
"You go into some of these small towns in Pennsylvania, and like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton Administration, and the Bush Administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not. And it’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."
Here's Obama September 14th, President Barack Obama interviewed Pulitzer Prize-winning author Marilynne Robinson in Iowa.*During the interview,*repeating essentially the same thing:
"How do you reconcile the idea of faith being really important to you and you caring a lot about taking faith seriously with the fact that, at least in our democracy and our civic discourse, it seems as if folks who take religion the most seriously sometimes are also those who are suspicious of those not like them?”
Yup, those Americans who "have racism in their DNA" cling to their religion have antipathy for people who are not like them, eh?
Remember the comment from Obama earlier this year?
“And lest we get on our high horse and think this is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and the Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ. In our home country, slavery and Jim Crow all too often was justified in the name of Christ.”
I'm tired of the man always insulting and talking down to the people. He has disdain for Americans, ans especially Christians, fine, but he can keep those thoughts yo himself.
First off, just what are these terrible deeds being committed today in the name of Christ? All he has is bringing up a long ago past? Second, the only ones being opposed to "not like themselves" are illegal aliens. Very few Americans oppose legal immigration. And yes, it is true that illegal aliens are depleting job opportunities and reducing wages for Americans. Yet, Americans are being called racist for fighting back?

Nah, he's been consistent. A year before he's elected he shows his disdain for average Americans as bitter clingers, and seven years later he revisits it.

What about Islam? Is Obama OK with Muslims executing homosexuals?
We've got many Conservatives hiding out in the back woods, clinging to their guns, their bibles, and their racist attitudes. Nothing surprising here. It's the TRUTH.

For those of you hating on and insulting American citizens who live in rural areas, I'll say this...If s*** ever hits the fan in this country, and society totally becomes unravelled, I'd trust my life with those so-called "backwoods," "inbred," "hicks" than any urban dweller ANY DAY! Because when it comes down to it, those rural folks and the fact that they tend to be more self-sufficient, will fare a whole lot better than those who live in big cities! Those in the big cities will be raping, pillaging, rioting, and murdering each other, and begging their god of big government to try and help them! But, hey... keep hating!

When the best you have is referring to religious wars from 1000 years ago to somehow represent modern Christians, you have nothing to stand on.
Yes, horrible things have been done in the name of religion. Horrible things have also been done in the name of science. Does that make science evil, or hateful, or dangerous?

Well said.......even more strange these people don't even know drugs are being done around them. Lost in Utopia.
Rural America in no way looks like Los Angeles, Detroit, New York City, etc.....
"Most whites, some despite involvement in protests, do believe in "freedom in democracy," and they fight to make the ideals of the Constitution an empirical reality for all. It seems that they believe that, if we just work hard enough at it, this country can be what it ought to be. But it never dawns on these do-gooders that what is wrong with America is not its failure to make the Constitution a reality for all, but rather its belief that persons can affirm whiteness and humanity at the same time." https://books.google.com/books?id=HWINAQAAQBAJ&lpg=PP1&pg=PT107#v=onepage&q =Most%20whites,%20some%20despite%20involvement&f=f alse

Its amazing that people who think of themselves as tolerant can so openly wear their disdain and bigotry towards rural Americans like a badge of honor. Referring to these people as 'inbred', or 'hicks' is no better than offensive stereotypes aimed at minorities or gays. It only exposes how close-minded these people are.
I grew up in a rural area. My family still lives there, and I can assure you that neither they, nor the masses of other people that live there fit this idiotic stereotype that city-dwelling elites have built up about people who live in the country. You know, the people who grow the food and create the energy that makes city living possible.
