Fattest, dumbest, most racist, etc.
In Alabama we're always #49 and say "Thank God for Mississippi."
The bastids turned the tables on us.

(43,850 posts)Actually I was born in AL where my mother was born. My father was a MS native. One of my fondest memories of my parents was that when they'd get into arguments she'd call him a Mississippi Mudslinger and he'd call her an Alabama Ridge Runner. God knows WHAT that makes me! LOL!

(8,084 posts)Ok see what had happen was, is this, it's a little known fact that before the civil war of 1899, Alabama was located where Mississippi currently is. But what had happen was
the Confederate Soldiers starting marching home from the loss of another failed war that many don't know about, and They thought they had March from GA to Mississippi forgetting their Geography because their GPS's had malfunction. SO they declared that Alabama was now Mississippi . Ignoring what the people in Alabama were saying
And all Fox is doing is using an old map. So you see technically they are right. Depending on how you look at it.

(18,470 posts)I think by now Arkansas is somewhere up between Canada and the North Pole.
Don't mess with those home schooled Tea Billie heads like that Fox.
They are already confused enough.
