The Proletariat, whoever he or she is, sure is a good jumper. I base this statement on the way that he or she leaps to some wild conclusions.
Proletariat takes umbrage with
this post, and responds with
a post of his/her own.
What Prolie misses is that McCain did not offer to show Senator Obama what he sees in Iraq, or offers to persuade, but takes the condescending tone of wanting to "educate" Obama. By being condescending, McCain is taking the elitist position in this matter. Of course, that is probably not too hard for someone with eight houses and millions of dollars.
Prolie also seems to have missed the point that McCain doesn't know what it's like "on the ground" any more than you or I. He was well protected in an area that is strongly controlled by the U.S.
But the real kicker is this:
Capper, living in his liberal elitist glass house, sees elitism simply as an attack on education or more accurately the educated class. Education per se does not make one elitist, the whole notion of an organic intellectual is based on an non elitist educated class. It is the snobbery, disdain, and disconnect that tends to follow that makes one elitist.
First of all, of course I'm an elitist. I am a king, after all. And I do not live in a glass house, but a fine castle. And I certainly understand the importance of education and of treating people like people. After all, I am the
King of the Hate Left, and not just some lockstepping conservative.
Harrumph!
