		<description>Hey, don&#039;t be so harsh on Harvard.  They are, after all, perhaps the third best school in all of Cambridge.</description>

		<description>This is why I change the channel on any TV that&#039;s tuned in to Fox whenever I can. I hate it when some jerk leaves Fox on the TV in the gym. H&amp;C is absurd in their dishonesty.</description>

		<description>perhaps the controversy is not that obama is elitist, but that he doesn&#039;t fit so many of the ethnic stereotypes we traditionally think of. I mean, wow, the guy is educated and doesn&#039;t wear bling- how elitist! And Hillary is suprisingly not transparent in her shot-drinking. WTF? There can be no progress if we don&#039;t move past stereotypes. But the next generation doesn&#039;t seem to be faring too well with sites like stuffethnicpeoplelike.com</description>

		<description>Probably too late to post, but I will anyway.  Did anyone hear Michelle Obama respond to the &quot;elitist non-story?&quot;  I can&#039;t wait until she becomes 1st lady.  She can kick butt and take names.  A very powerful, intellectual, honest woman.  That&#039;s the image I want the nation to project.</description>

The largest department in the Obama campaign is the one that has to explain what he really meant after he said what he said.

Yeah...  It&#039;s going to be so nice to have a President who can use polysyllabic words, and in the right order and with the correct verb conjugation.</description>

		<description>Lemme get this straight -- a Harvard-educated man with midwestern roots who spews vitriol for a living is accusing another Harvard-educated man with midwestern roots of being insulting?  WTF???

Hewitt -- Obama has more class in his little finger than you&#039;ll ever have.  He could have phrased his point better, and he said so, which is more than you&#039;ll ever do.  Furthermore, acknowledging that there are a lot of people out there who are being ignored by their government (and yes, some ARE bitter!) is neither condescending nor insulting.  It&#039;s true.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;tombaker Says:
You know who is not an elitist? - John McCain - 3rd generation Annapolis cadet, with a 300 million dollar fortune, 8 houses, and a private jet at his disposal.

Also Dubbie - 5th generation Connecticut blue-blood private prep-school cheerleader and Ivy Leaguer - not elite in the least.

As they lower the moral and ethical bar, righties push the bar of unabashed demagoguery higher every day.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

You&#039;re absolutely right, tom. Neither Bush nor McSame is elitist in the sense that &quot;elite&quot; means one of a rarefied level of achievement, the very best in a field.

Oh, wait -- that just means they&#039;re not &quot;elite&quot;. However, since their policies benefit the economic elite in contrast to their faux-populist rhetoric, they truly are &quot;elitist&quot; in THAT sense.

The English language can be very confusing sometimes. I guess that&#039;s why Chimpy gave up on it.</description>

		<description>The MSM is the enemy in most cases.  It should be obvious that Obama epitomizes the American dream of rising from poverty to a position of leadership, responsibility and success.  He has lived the dream.  Only the Republicans can turn that into some sort of effeminate and elitist background.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Bobwurst Says:

Yeah, it must be tough to have to try and digest complete sentences that aren’t broken up with extended pauses while the president trys desperately to remember basic words. If you’re used to understanding what bush stutters, then of course you’ll need an entire department to comprehend the fluid eloquence of Obama. Don’t worry, your brain will have 8 years to adjust.&lt;/em&gt;

The Bush administration has needed such a &quot;department&quot; because they don&#039;t bother to justify or explain anything George says, and they don&#039;t need to explain Cheney&#039;s upraised middle finger.</description>

		<description>You know who is not an elitist? - John McCain - 3rd generation Annapolis cadet, with a 300 million dollar fortune, 8 houses, and a private jet at his disposal.

Also Dubbie - 5th generation Connecticut blue-blood private prep-school cheerleader and Ivy Leaguer - not elite in the least.

As they lower the moral and ethical bar, righties push the bar of unabashed demagoguery higher every day.</description>

The largest department in the Obama campaign is the one that has to explain what he really meant after he said what he said.

Yeah, it must be tough to have to try and digest complete sentences that aren&#039;t broken up with extended pauses while the president trys desperately to remember basic words. If you&#039;re used to understanding what bush stutters, then of course you&#039;ll need an entire department to comprehend the fluid eloquence of Obama. Don&#039;t worry, your brain will have 8 years to adjust.</description>

		<description>...I should have said theright-wing smear merchants and MSM are either too &lt;em&gt;dishonest&lt;/em&gt; or too stupid.

&quot;Evil&quot; is a word I should not use so lightly. It should be reserved for the likes of Darth Cheney, or maybe Pat Robertson.</description>

		<description>in response to Mr. Hewitt, I am pleased to be able to quote our Vice President on this matter:

&lt;strong&gt;&quot;So?&quot;&lt;/strong&gt;

And &lt;em&gt;that&lt;/em&gt;, my friend, is an example of something truly condescending.</description>
