With the bitter clingers?
Via Fox News:
First Lady Michelle Obama took a jab at rural Americans during a speech she delivered to Democrats at the posh Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco, according to a White House transcript of her remarks.
Her comments came as she was imploring the high-dollars donors to dig deep and “max out” their checking accounts.
“Leave San Francisco,” she told the laughing audience. “Leave this bastion. Go out in the wilderness. And roll up your sleeves because we know that those person-to-person contacts, those calls and doors knocked on, all of that can also mean the difference between victory and defeat.”
The wilderness? Perhaps the First Lady is not aware that folks in the Deep South have running water and electricity in their homes. We also have ice boxes, indoor plumbing, and a new-fangled piece of technology called “home computers.”
Some of us even have some book learning.
Maybe somebody should tell the First Lady that all of us folks out here in the “wilderness” are the ones paying the bills in this country. Our sons and daughters fight this nation’s wars. They stand guard on our shores so the Obamas can host lavish, private birthday parties in the White House.
