Obama’s deluded and ignorant average Joes and Janes on display

First, the Hispanic lady from Albuquerque should have been the final “ordinary person” speaker with her “si se puede” finish.

But, the ignorance, delusion, or self-delusion of many of the people was HUGE.

The Michigan trucker? Your Big Three were deliberately antienvironmentalist; that’s why you’re not transporting Big Three-built vehicles. You may, though, still transport American-built Toyotas and Hondas.

The Indiana factory worker? The one conveniently named Barney Smith? Former President Bill Clinton, with his push for NAFTA, and vice presidential nominee Joe Biden, with his vote for it, started the process of sending your jobs abroad, combined with the similar “New Democrat” push for the World Trade Organization. Neither the Slickster nor Sen. MBNA has apologized to you or other unionized, blue-collar Dems, have they?

The Indiana factory worker, part two? Your cute “Barney Smith not Smith Barney” line is in total ignorance of something like Goldman Sachs as top Obama donor.

And, over at Mother Jones, David Corn (who knows better), let the Barney Smith/SmithBarney line pass without comment.

The Albuquerque educator? Isn’t a $4K tax credit for any student wanting to go to college, without being means-tested, a stupid, expensive handout? And, doesn’t it just inflate college costs, and the clout of the university-as-business establishment, even more? Answers to all questions are yes.

The Florida small-business owner? Nobody’s putting a gun to your head to continue owning your business.

The North Carolina nurse? Self-insurance is expensive but not THAT expensive. And nurses’ salaries, even in the South, aren’t THAT low. Couldn’t you have bought at least a catastrophic policy for yourself? Answer, yes.

And, for anybody who accuses me of being heartless, I’m not insured right now myself, and I make less than $30K.
