Who's out of touch?

I saw this video on Stan Rosenthal's blog, http://tbsn.thesequencers.us/ and he got it from some other blog. Here is my initial feelings upon listening to Barack Obama's explanation of his statements.

Senator Obama,

YOU are out of touch. You talk about the politicization of your words...you're a politician, duh. Your words are going to be politicized. However your pastor, and spiritual mentor, politicizes the gospel. You defend his politicization of the Bible, yet you don't think it's right that your words as a United States Senator who is running for President of the United States ought to be scrutinized politically?

You bash the Bush tax cuts which helped ALL Americans, not just the wealthy. (of which you are a member Mr. Obama) You're against tax cuts, yet high taxes are destroying and have been destroying the industries in the Midwest sending manufacturing jobs overseas. This is where you are focusing your campaign, yet you are out of touch with the root causes of their job losses, and miserable economy. Either you are out of touch or you don't care. Those middle class, blue collar voters you insulted don't need you to patronize them with your half-hearted attempt at an apology. Give a REAL apology. Tell them that you're sorry that you said what you said. Say you didn't mean it the way it came out and that's it. Don't use it as a lead in to attack your political opponents.

You claim that your opponents are out of touch. But where President Bush, John McCain, Hillary Clinton and 98% of congress is out of touch is that most Americans DON'T want higher taxes. They don't want our borders wide open, they don't want a $60 billion trade deficit. They don't want to see a $400 billion budget deficit when the US treasury is taking in record revenues, and they don't want us to lose a war that was started by Radical Islam and that is of vital interest to US national security.

The American people want to see spending reduced. They want government out of our lives, they want borders protected, they want to stop seeing our jobs outsourced and they want to defeat the terrorists and see democracy flourish in the Middle East. They don't want the first amendment minimized to protect all religions except Christianity. They don't want to see freedom of speech impinged upon when it comes to Radical Islam and in our schools and universities.

The American people want real alternative fuels and they want us to use the oil we have in America. Maybe if we weren't importing so much oil from Mexico, we could close off our borders. Maybe then, Americans would get paid enough to do those jobs that 'Americans won't do'. But you and politicians like you don't actually want real solutions do you Senator? You claim to be the candidate of 'Hope', yet you tell young blacks that you attained your wealth and position due to luck. No, you got it by hard work. But you want power, and you want to take care of the people who helped you attain that power. Telling Democrats that they can make it without the government won't keep the votes coming in long term will it? No Senator, you are out of touch. Stop attacking hard working Americans and make a real effort to get in touch.
