MSNBC has a full hour of 4 New Yorkers on discussing the US Elections

[itsrobert]

OMG, could these New York elitist be any more blatant?

[cali]

1. why do you watch this shit.

No wonder you are what you are. Too much TV.

[TwilightGardener]

2. "New York elitists"--since when does being from New York make one an elitist?

As a native Pennsylvanian, does that make me "semi-elitist"?

[itsrobert]

4. Yup, the East Coast think they are the shit

Which they aren't.

[TwilightGardener]

6. Mmmm, no. But thanks for that valuable insight.

[Chovexani]

12. You're not doing anything

To improve the reputation of the rest of the country.

[Captain Hilts]

23. And the middle of the country - subsidized by the East - thinks they're better and more virtuous. nt

[THUNDER HANDS]

3. you have a problem with New Yorkers?

I mean, it's not like our little city isn't the most important city in the world and basically the face of the entire country (the better parts of it), the hub of both entertainment, business and culture?


Would you prefer a panel with four people from Idaho?

[itsrobert]

5. Entertainment?

That would be LA/Hollwood and India.

[ccpup]

9. for the actual filming of projects, yes

but the corporate headquarters for many -- if not all -- the major studios and networks is based in New York. So, LA/Hollywood actually get their marching orders from the suits in NYC.

[DJ13]

7. Mike Barnacle is from NY?

Didnt know that.........

[itsrobert]

8. It's Tim Russert and 3 New York newspaper columist

Russert lives and works in NYC.

[terisan]

19. Russert is the Washington Bureau Chief, not NYC

[Captain Hilts]

24. Two of three are Clinton-hating Republicans. nt

[lurky]

11. He got driven out of Boston with pitchforks and torches.

How he still has a job after all his bullshit is a mystery to me.

[Chovexani]

10. OMG, could you ignorant flyover plebe be any more ignorant?

See, it's not so fun when people do it to you.

[itsrobert]

13. San Diego, Fly Over country?

LOL

[Chovexani]

15. Yeah, it is

As in I'd rather fly over it into the ocean than stay there, seeing as it's the only thing the town's got going for it.

(PS: Have you ever even been to NY?)

[itsrobert]

18. Yup, had to lock my doors

and put my wallet in my front pocket so it wouldn't get stolen.

[ruggerson]

14. Talk about using a Republican smear

[lurky]

16. Oh, boy! Regionalism!

Let's see,

All Southerners are dumb rubes.
All Californians are stoned-out hippies.
All Northeasterners are snobs or mobsters.
All Midwesterners are obese bible-thumpers.
All Westerners are ignorant cowboys.

Did I miss anyone?



(I almost forgot the :sarcasm:)

[Chovexani]

17. You forgot to bash the Southwest

Putting corn and chipotle in everything does not constitute "cuisine". :P

(I live in Phoenix, I have joke immunity.)

[lurky]

20. LOL

Sounds delicious, by the way. Do they make corn-chipotle ice cream?
:)

[Chovexani]

25. I'm sure someone does

And they call it Zesty Southwestern Flavor (tm). :rofl:

[Kahuna]

21. Actually Robert, the discussion was about the NY candidates..

;) :hi:

[Barack_America]

22. I'm sorry, were you under the impression that the rest of us count?

Because, according to the media, we don't.
