I was going to get back to blogging tonight to post on the WV primary. But what's the point? That cartoon pretty much says it all.

Sure does. But you've got a problem. It's racist when Obama's SC and NC victories, as well as GA, etc., get dismissed because of "all the blacks." However, it's fine for the white wine sipping elitists to say to hell with WV because it's only stupid, obese, uneducated white trash that voted. Actually, I haven't heard that said, but c'mon, you know it's what people are thinking. Here's the thing -- Obama will be the nominee, but it is massively unimpressive for him to get only 28% of the vote this late in the process and then face a similar result in KY next week. Of course, he'll likely win OR, possibly even by double digits. That, of course, will be a legitimate win becasue everyone is some much smarter and sophisticated out there!

"white wine sipping elitists"
Yes, you haven't heard it said, but that doesn't stop you from putting it in other people's mouths and basing a flimsy straw man argument on it.
And yes, a great many people are "some [sic] much smarter and sophisticated out there!" Here too.

So happy you're a good typer, Fogg. You're very funny when you pretend to associate my typos with stupidity (which as defined by you would be ANYTHING you don't agree with).
I think it was Paul Begala who called Obama supporters "eggheads and African-Americans." Now, I'm too stupid to remember, but isn't Begala a Democrat . . . and agsinst the war?
And I see you've recently "endorsed" Obama. I must say that was absolutely shocking and I never would have predicted it. Tbe problem for you and Mr. Obama is that dumb and unsophisticated people usually have JUST BARELY ENOUGH BRAIN CELLS LEFT IN THEIR TINY LITTLE HEADS . . . to resent being condescended to.
They're not well-educated enough to understand your Camus and Sartre-like existential diatribes, so before they die and go into oblivion (or meet JEEEEEEEESUS!), they'd like just a bit more respect from you.

the word [sic] of course is there to illustrate that the typo wasn't mine. You raised the subject of stupidity all by yourself.
All the rest of your post is able to illustrate the level of your hysterical self-importance without my help.
Please refrain from telling me what I would say if I were the character in your play. I'm not.
