Why do Obama people keep bashing small town people?

Question

The first thing that come out of the Obama people when told about Palin was knocking her for being Mayor of a small town of 9000 people who cling to their guns and bibles and have antipathy for anyone who is not like them

Answer 1

They are only parroting what Obama said about small town America.

Answer 2

Because clearly anyone who lives in a small town can't be anywhere near as smart as the people in lower Manhattan and the left coast!  Jeez, silly!

Answer 3

Obama people are not bashing small town people. Many like myself are from small town America. We have good leaders in my small town (about 5,000 people). However, that does not make them qualified to lead this country, nor would most accept the call of duty for such a monumental calling as what has fallen from the heavens into her lap. I am from a smaller town than yours, I do not proclaim to be qualified for the job of second in command, nor would I want the job.

First look to the choice that McCain made. Second, ask yourself what makes her qualified. Third ask yourself WHY! Truthfully. Doesn't it make you want to scratch your head, and say, WHERE DID THAT CHOICE COME FROM. You really can't be serious, can you? McCain has only seen her twice. No one can know another person enough to know they want them as running mates, while only having met them on two occasions. How can they know if the two are even compatible? The Republican politicians need a scapegoat, to blame the loss on in November. Mayor Palin is the scapegoat, nothing more, nothing less.

The Republican politicians do not want her in Washington DC. They will diminish whatever accomplishments she has made in Alaska. If there is one thing that Republican politicians are good for, known for, it is the ability to cover their butts. I believe they realize this election loss is a foregone conclusion. All but the paperwork. They just needed an outsider, to bear the brunt of it. They needed someone they could point the finger to, after the paperwork is done.

Answer 4

It is because most liberals are people from urban areas who don't know c**p about living in small town USA. People from rural areas are usually conservative. That's why places like Florida and Ohio are up for grabs. Because they both have urban and rural areas. That's why Obama has problems with working class Americans. Liberals are usually also less religious, as they support so actions deemed evil by Christians (like abortion), which makes them think that small town people "cling to their bibles and guns." Lots of liberals are more environmentally cautious, so that's why they don't believe in gun rights. And since hippies are liberals, you would think that democrats support legalizing weed.  

Obama got it all wrong. He is the #1 liberal and is going to put us in more national debt. his plans are only short term, and he  supports a broken health care system, and will spend our money like free air. It may not be radical to call him a socialist (come on it is true) and P.U.M.A. actually B.P.U.M.A.. While McCain doesn't have the best record, I believe that he will reform Washington and stop all this government spending that is putting us in HUGE debt. And for the record, Palin has more accomplishments then Obama, and she is 44!.

Answer 5

That is just mean spirited liberal hate mongering. They're very good at it.

Answer 6

SHOW ME where Obama people said anything about guns and bibles in connection with Wasila, Alaska.  I dare you.

I just say being a mayor of Podunk is not an impressive credential, that's all.  And I live not IN a small town, but a mile OUTSIDE a very small hamlet.

Answer 7

He is a stupid elitist. That's why. No link to regular working people at all.

Answer 8

Because he is an out of touch elitist.

Answer 9

Gotta link to that quote?
