So You Say You Don’t Like Community Organizers

After watching Palin, Giuliani, and Romney speak last night it is clear they are not big fans of community organizers like Barack Obama. I saw this pithy response on a message board:

Jesus was a community organizer and Pontius Pilate was a governor.

Or how about another comment from Community Organizers Fight Back:

The last thing we need is for Republican officials to mock us on television when we’re trying to rebuild the neighborhoods they have destroyed. Maybe if everyone had more houses than they can count, we wouldn’t need community organizers. But I work with people who are getting evicted from their only home. If John McCain and the Republicans understood that, maybe they wouldn’t be so quick to make fun of community organizers like me.
