In the Brian Williams interview last night, John McCain told us what the term "elitist" meant:
“I’ll be very frank with you. Who think that they can dictate what they believe to America rather than let Americans decide for themselves.”
Like the belief that stem cells are human life and can't be used in scientific research? The belief that life begins at conception? Or the belief that people have a right to die on their own terms? The belief that gay people shouldn't be allowed to get married? You mean, like those beliefs?
As Christopher DeAngelus on the Daily Shocker has indicated-- McCain basically just called every priest and pastor an elitist. And it was even worse-- McCain also laughingly claimed that he knew where a lot of elitists live, saying "In our nation’s capital and New York City. I’ve seen it. I’ve lived there. I know the town. I know– I know what a lot of these elitists are.
So the people that died in the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on 9/11 were elitists, not real Americans. Is that what McCain really means? Please folks, we can't let this geriatric, jingoistic jerk sit in the Oval office with his finger on the nuclear trigger.
