That sounds like the profile of many of my neighbors. Average white middle class types who are obssesed with controlling others' behavior. There are 5 engineers on my street all hold Masters degrees and none of them are able to think abstractly. They are socially retarded and endulge in low brow culture. They are oblivious to the fact that social ills such as poverty and racism exist in our society and feel no sense of social responsibility.

They are very rigid in their thinking and their lifestyle. Their wives are very stepford like. And ALL of them are avid church goers. They think we are sinners because we do not attend church and had Kerry-Edwards signs and bumper stickers. LOL!!!

We have only three Democrat families on our street (we live on a cul-de-sac). A professional lesbian couple, a lesbian vet, and US! You can imagine the discourse at the block BBQs & neighborly gatherings, most of which I do not attend.
