some call you elitist, i call you my base

[seabeyond]

that just keeps popping into my head since seeing f911 monday night, that smugness and arrogance, and all those old white farts, the same ones at the country club i go to................my in laws, my father, my husbands friend. going to el paso to hang with these people at beginning of month. not a good thing with my present attitude. el paso beware, lol lol

anyway, i think we all should be getting this visual til election.

1. That would be a funny caption for a cartoon with OBL's relatives

who fled the US post 911 surrounding Bush.

2. How funny. I'm from El Paso too.

Spent a good chunk of my childhood around those a-holes at Santa Teresa CC. Went to school with their spoiled, coke-snorting, liquid-lunching kids at Coronado High School in the 80s.

Overall, though, I still think El Paso is a great town with the nicest people anywhere. Rich white people are annoying in any town.

If El Paso wasn't so hard on my allergies, I might still live there. It's certainly a lot ccheaper than San Fran!

8. i be from calif,.........hence the conflicts, lol

my husbands family moved down there. i do like it. i like the majority is the minority and they are the ones in office dictating rule. only place i have been to were Mexicans out number and out power.

you may have gone to school with husbands friend. he went about that time. his father use to be a judge and his grandma,........well, very wealthy, sittin on the hill. so funny, he is the one i have my sights on.

told my in laws a couple years ago i was going to go hippie, hippie dress, theirs eyes about popped out and such scorn.

but i do love San Fransisco

3. That stuck in my head too.

so did "now I believe it's a saying in Tennesse... or maybe it was Texas.... no, I think it was Tennesse. Anyways, fool me once.......... shame on you....... fool me?.... i can't get fooled again." :D

10. i love this one. i use this al over the place

and then just go into laughter. and with whomever, and if they look like they dont know what i am talking, i get to go into a fit of laughter, busting up at bush's stupidness

another is fancypant elitist. that, whenever anyone talks or embrace stupid or going to intellectual, oh and one more

reporter asks what do you and father talk about when not politics. his reply.......pussy, and the person i say this too, look them right in the eye

this is generally when bringing up his christianity and family values

so you see, his words, cover the whole agenda for me.

4. "some call you the elite" (nt)

nt

[seabeyond]

11. ah ...... but i am not

in so many ways, so you might not want to make assumptions on info i gave you, cause guarentee you will be wrong, seeing how i know my history and present like...........................way more than you, lol and a wink

embrace me, i am on your side, i assure you

[JHB]

5. Not "elitist", it was "some call you 'the elite'"

"Elitist" is a pejorative, suitable only for Democrats.

"The elite" is positive. Exceptional people! The best of the best! and "I call you my base".

[seabeyond]

12. ahhhhhh, ty for the correction

excellent, thank you

[ClintonTyree]

6. If the Kerry campaign............

doesn't put that in a campaign commercial, they're nuts. :crazy:

[NYCGirl]

9. But if that clip is from the Al Smith Dinner, it's supposed to be a joke.

In bad taste, but a joke nonetheless — so it probably wouldn't be a good clip for a commercial.

[Robbien]

13. The segment in F-911 was very effective

Rich white guys all laughing and grinning while Bush calls the haves and the have-mores his base.

[seabeyond]

14. this is what i am saying, i have hung with these ole farts

they can say it all they want that it was just a joke, but not...........this is them. giving exactly how they feel. could see in the arrogant laughter. some should have at least squirmed. none did

[ClintonTyree]

16. The Cons..............

treat everything we Democrats say as gospel, I think it's time to do the same to them. Let THEM stumble over themselves trying to explain things away for once. They always pull that shit on us, looking all serious, somber and holy, knowing full well that it's bullshit. It WORKS for them though, that's why they continue doing it. Maybe it's time to give them a taste of their own medicine.

[JHB]

18. But that's also part of the point...

...just about every "joke" W makes is in bad taste or mocking someone.

[TA]

7. Bush also referred to "the haves and the have mores" as his base

[seabeyond]

15. ya..............

good reminder

[linazelle]

17. This also stuck in the craw of a friend of mine.... n/t
