		<description>Tim, whatever. You can nitpick, or address the point, which is that what he said was true.  Small town or inner city, people are angry, and they don&#039;t believe politicians care about their economic well-being at all, so they vote for candidates based on whether they hate gays, love guns, or believe that world domination is a good thing.  It wasn&#039;t any more elitist than your comment was.</description>

		<description>You have to know what a drum is before you can bang it. And you don&#039;t have a clue what a drum is. Just for the sake of context, &quot;context&quot; cannot be &quot;everything&quot; if &quot;truth&quot; is &quot;everything&quot; and vice-versa. It is idiocy to claim that two things can both be &quot;everything.&quot; That alone demonstrates your failure to understand what a drum is much less how to bang one.</description>
