Lazy over-educated whites for Obama, check in!!!!
I support Obama because it makes me feel superior to my under-educated co-racialists!!!!



Now please excuse me, my arugula salad is starting to wilt!!!



I find the steam from my expensive latte maker causes the arugula to wilt faster, don't you just hate that???



I try to fan the steam away with my TWO college diplomas, but the arugula tends to wilt anyway!!!



CAN ANYBODY HELP ME!!!!!!

23. LOL
I need to go pick up some organic fair trade decaf coffee at Whole Foods, riding my Cannondale -- I gave my Prius up for Lent.

Hybrids are so yesterday, BIKES are in with us elitists you know.

59. Me too!
Actually, I always wear the same pair of comfortable, leather men's sandals (even though I'm a half-century-old mom) and I do drive my Prius (and, yes, it NEEDS washed).

HeeHee.

Checkin' in (but I drink diet Coke - trying to wean myself off of it).

I am actually holding my 6 years old 7th B-day party at Double Decker lanes next Saturday. Bowling with 10 seven year olds how ELITE can one get?

Somebody, please, override the votes of my generation so that we can reward the politicians who had the foresight to start a war that is being used as an excuse to rob us blind, and give the money to their political cronies, while leaving my generation with nothing but a climate crisis and an obscene amount of debt to pay off.

Please save us SuperClinton, and the super delegate action squad! You're our only hope!

40. I smelled Lattes
Life for people like us is definitely trying...I had over-extended my index finger on the remote, switching channels for coverage of the campaign...called my kids to come over to change channels for me...(Ahhhh the old days, when the kids were my remote, before remotes!)

My Doctor tells me I have heart disease, I don't have the heart to get up and do anything. I just sit in my "Lazy-boy" If it wasn't for the laptop & shopping online...I would completely waste away.

And with direct pay, and direct deposit..there is no need to even leave the house! Except to go over to friends and family...free eats! Say, can I have extra light on that Latte?

If I was smarter with this education I should be able to sip my latte in peace at home on the weekends watching my arugula plants wilt instead of a 7 day work week. Highly educated and hard working - who in the hell am I suppose to vote for! Please help! By the way I'm white, female and middle age since that may also determine who I should vote for.

around here since I prefer spinach to arugala, diet coke to coffee, nevermind latte, and I'm still working on my first degree. I am lazy though, and I'm trying to be the laziest ever. I'm supporting Obama in hopes that I can be elitist too because of the whole "guilt by association" thingy.

As the resident philosopher king of Ohio, and Obama supporter, I do not have to work. My only "job" is to think about the Platonic forms of the Good. My question is not why Obama gets the educated people's vote, rather, why Hillary doesn't.

Count me in! I have four wasted degrees. I love arugula. And may get a latte (or rather an adulterated latte--a low-fat-rasberry-mocha--frappachino) on Mother's Day. And I'll raise my iced drink to Barack Obama.

81. I don't have a degree
I'm white. I'm a woman. I'm 58. I never got a degree. I drink diet Coke and Lipton tea (if it's on sale). I voted for Obama on Super Tuesday and I'm glad I did. Which bench should I be sitting on?

85. My Volvo
has 289,763miles on it- I drive it with gratitude and hope. It is 19yrs old, and was given to us after it broke down on it's way to a salvage dealer. (My kids and I stopped to help the owner push it out of the road- and my oldest got it running and keeps it running).

I've never set foot into a "Starbucks" in my life, and up until last year I'd never even SEEN one of their shops in real life.

I've only got a H.S. diploma- and have never earned over 12hr. in any job I've had.

But I'm more than happy to help blow some cool air over your latte with you, and discuss the many reasons our country desperately needs Obama in the White House.


I sure am sick and tired of "polls" telling us who we are- who we support- and what we will do.
F@*k the 'exit polls'- They are nothing more than fancy imperfect assumptions and ways to divide, marginalize and stereotype us.


peace~

91. I may barely pass being half-Latina...
...but it's fashionable Latina - mom is from the land that gave us bossa nova, the artistic bikini wax, and caipirinhas, and beaches famous for being the home of the truly elite of the elite shrine of the world's most perfect buttocks. Which of our two Democratic contenders would be most at ease there, I ask you?

And my gosh, I'm so lazy I only have two jobs!

Pardon me. My very elite cat is demanding her daily imported beluga caviar. She's very angry because I accidentally bought an inferior brand of litter with only 18K gold flecks in it, not the 24K her lovely haunches demand. (You can really tell the difference when she tracks it on the floor and the 4:20 PM sunlight comes in through my bay windows and hits it just so.)

101. NO! the whole reason we use arugula is BECAUSE it doesn't wilt!


It's an herb not a lettuce and it doesn't wilt as easily. Come on! All of us over-educated, wine-sipping, reduction sauce-making elitists should know this by now for use when throwing our little soirees with our fellow elitists!
