Scalzi points out an asshat
July 11, 2008
Because I haven’t had an asshat for a while, and because this is rich in all senses of the word, I want to share a tidbit I found on Whatever.
Meet Lynn Forester de Rothschild, Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild. Yeah, those Rothschilds. The ones that are, well, kinda well off? Not that she’s any small taters herself, she was worth a hundred million before she married in to the really big bucks. This is not a woman who pumps her own gas into the SUV when going to soccer practice. You will not find her shopping at Wal-Mart— hell, not even Target. This woman would have to think for a moment if, while standing in her grand foyer filled with art costing more than most people’s houses, you asked her where the kitchen was. . .
This woman, a die-hard Hillary supporter, doesn’t think she’ll support Obama because. . .
*drumroll*
“Frankly I don’t like him. I feel like he is an elitist.”
*headdesk*

Are you insinuating there’s a store better than Target? Now you’re just being silly!
Admit it. That’s your reason too!
[...] Last July, one of Hilliary’s supporters was troubled. She just couldn’t bring herself to support Obama because she felt he was “too elitist.” The woman’s name is Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild. So we have a woman with a peerage and more money than God placing herself as the arbiter of egalitarianism. Maybe she was just building street cred for when the revolution comes and they roll out the guillotine. Or maybe she was looking for a PC way to say “uppity.” Close Bookmark and Share This Page Save to Browser Favorites / BookmarksAskbackflipblinklistBlogBookmarkBloglinesBlogMarksBlogsvineBuddyMarksBUMPzee!CiteULikeco.mmentsConnoteadel.icio.usDiggdiigoDotNetKicksDropJackdzoneFacebookFarkFavesFeed Me LinksFriendsitefolkd.comFurlGoogleHuggJamespotJeqqKaboodlekirtsylinkaGoGoLinkedInLinksMarkerMa.gnoliaMister WongMixxMySpaceMyWebNetvouzNewsvineoneviewOnlyWirePlugIMPropellerRedditRojoSegnaloShoutwireSimpySlashdotSphereSphinnSpurlSquidooStumbleUponTechnoratiThisNextTwitterWebrideWindows LiveWorlds MoviesYahoo!Email This to a FriendCopy HTML: If you like this then please subscribe to the RSS Feed.Powered by Bookmarkify™ More » [...]
