Last week, I read an article in the Times where some Bush voters explained that they voted for Bush because they could relate to him better, that he seemed like a decent man, and that Kerry was a snob.
This, of course, enraged me. And I ranted on to Steve about how it’s understandable that people vote by their guts, but they shouldn’t admit it. Voting for someone because he seems like an ordinary guy is not a valid reason to choose the leader of the free world. I once voted for a guy because his nickname was “The Iceman,” but I usually keep that to myself.
Anyhow, Jonah overheard my rant and turned to Steve and asked “What’s a snob?”
Steve replied, “A snob is a person who thinks he’s better than other people”.
Jonah thought about it for a moment and then proudly announced, “I’m a snob! I am better than everyone else.”
Yes, that’s how we raise them in the blue states. We’re snobs and we’re proud.
