"A cynical ploy to pander to the lower classes for votes."

[Brigid]

This is what one e-mail CNN just showed onscreen called "class warfare."

Jaysus help us. :banghead:

1. Since almost everything politicians do are cynical ploys to pander for votes, ...

the objection must be going after "lower class" votes. And, of course, many of today's conservatives think that "lower classes" should not be allowed to vote.

Class warfare, indeed.

2. Was it sent by Marie Antoinette?

"The lower classes??"

:rofl:

NGU.

5. That's what it said, I swear.

I had to read it twice because I couldn't believe my eyes.

3. Saying anything is their ploy

4. Your post is too cryptic for me.

"A cynical ploy to pander to the lower classes for votes."

Seems that's what Tea Party Rep. John Fleming (R) and others similar to him is inspiring!

So, why "Jaysus help us"?

7. It means . . .

Jesus help us if people like the writer of that e-mail are actually using phrases like "the lower classes" without caring -- perhaps without even knowing -- how they sound.

6. Only white men who own property should be allowed to vote-

just like the Founding Fathers decided. :sarcasm:
