San Francisco Obama Supporters are Laughing
can someone tell me what this crap is about?

Hillary may win big, if more and more people see this video clip below.
I don't know if "elitist" is the proper word for Mr.Obama. But his comments revealed something about him that is very uncomfortable. He hasn't explained yet why his supporters at that fund raiser in San Francisco were laughing at his comments. Watch the video at the link below, ask yourself what was so funny?

1. The truth hurts: Yes, big whigs are laughing at the poor
who continue to vote based on BS that has nothing to do with anything. This clip included.

I'm not going to bother to watch the clip either.

2. They laughed at "when it's a 46 y/o black guy named Barack Obama."
He was making fun of himself, like how he calls himself "the skinny kid with the funny name."

6. He joked about the messenger being a 46 year old black man named Barack Obama
He made a little joke to ease the tension.

They laughed politely.

You know this, since you posted the video and it's right there to see.

Your question is disingenuous.

8. "He hasn't explained yet why his supporters at that fund raiser in San Francisco were laughing"
They have got to be kidding! He's expected to answer for the laughter of a crowd?! :wtf:

Attention Senator Obama:
It has been decided that you are personally responsible for every word, gesture, belief or expression of emotion that comes from every person that has ever met you, listened to you, voted for you, lived within 500 miles of you or has ever uttered your name.

:eyes:

21. Why don't you find something positive about your candidate to post?
Instead of posting negatives? Or is your real objective just to be objectionable? If it is, you're succeeding.
