Obama's Elitism Problem, Continued

Barack Obama, out of touch with the working man as usual, has an aggressive program for carbon emissions reductions and has spoken of the need for such frou-frou measures as increased investment in transit infrastructure, intercity rail, and even bicycling. The McCains, by contrast, dole out such homespun wisdom as "in Arizona, the only way to get around the state is by small private plane" and understand that in this crazy modern world where the typical family owns eleven homes and spends hundreds of thousands of dollars per year on household staff, you can't possibly expect transportation alternatives to gain popularity.

Not since John demonstrated that he was a true "man of the people" by riding first class on the Acela has his family's fundamental in touchness been so underscored, and the fundamental elitism of the Obama's been laid bare so clearly.
