"And it's not surprising then they (small town, ordinary American people) 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."
This is part of the speech Obama gave a couple of weeks ago to supporters in California. A speech which has become to be known as the "bitter clingers" , as he so haughtily dismisses a large part of American.
I'm a proud "bitter clinger". I proud of have the Constitutional right, as well as a God given right to own guns. Our founders knew we must always be able to protect ourselves, our family's, against those who would wish to forcefully take what we have. And a tyrannical government who's objective becomes taking what we rightfully own.
I cling to my Constitutionally given right to worship God. I cling to His Word that others have died for, so the Bible can be passed through the generations.
"or antipathy toward people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations" This is Obama's arrogance and ignorance on display. 'Anti-immigrant' is the lie liberals say to the law respecting people of this country who understand that coming to and being in American, is a privileged, granted by government, not a "right" granted by the intruder.
Anti-trade sentiment? The vast majority of that comes from the "big" union leaders who rather stifle free trade than to lose their personal powers.
I'm a proud and thankful "bitter clinger", Sen. Barack Hussein Obama. You better understand I'll give neither up for your agenda.
