Karl Rove: Coal Country Of Pennsylvania Is Where People “Really Do Cling To Their Guns And Their
Faith"

FOX News endlessly attacked Barack Obama last spring, calling him an elitist for saying that people in small towns in Pennsylvania are bitter and cling to guns and religion. But Karl Rove said almost the same thing on last night's (10/22/08) Hannity & Colmes. During an analysis of the demographics of the state, Rove stated that the southwest corner of Pennsylvania, which he described as “coal country,” has “the kind of people who really do cling to their guns and their faith.” There wasn't a peep of protest from Sean Hannity. With video.

As I noted in my previous post, FOX News has been focusing on Pennsylvania along with John McCain. Coincidentally, they have been rehashing Obama's “bitter” and John Murtha's “redneck” comments, both of which just happen to pertain to Pennsylvania. Republican gaffes are being ignored, of course, including Sarah Palin's ignorance about the job she's campaigning for.
