Who's the real elitist? Saying it doesn't make it true.

Here's what I don't get about the elitist label getting thrown about by the Republicans and their friends over at Fox News.

Between Obama and McCain, which one flies around in a private jet all the time?

McCain.

Between Obama and McCain, which one has millions upon millions of dollars at their personal disposal?

McCain.

Between Obama and McCain, which one was born in the good old U.S.A.?

Obama. (McCain was born in Panama)

Between Obama and McCain, which one has a wife that voted to sell out a large U.S. company to a foreign company?

McCain. (Cindy McCain owns 80,000 shares of Anheiser-Busch. She voted in favor of selling the company to InBev, over the interests of all the U.S. workers who rely on A-B for jobs, etc.)

Let's face it: McCain is the elitist here. Just because Obama got a good education, it doesn't make him an elitist. It makes him smart. McCain hasn't been poor since the 1970's when he married money.

To call Obama an elitist is a bald-faced lie.

Why do we let the rich get away with calling the non-rich elitists? It makes no sense.

Who's closer to living the lifestyle of everyday Americans, Obama or McCain?

Obama because he doesn't fly around in a private jet, nor own 7 + homes, nor advocate for the interests of large corporations and wealthy individuals at the expense of the rest of us.

Get a grip people. McCain is not interested in helping everyday Americans, only his well-heeled friends an supporters, who are not everyday Americans.
