7. Yeah, that's just what we need
We don't need those Congressional or Senate seats down there, or governors, or anything. Let's just stick our noses high in the air and call them dumbass rednecks. You know, like Clinton.

8. why does he live in Atlanta if he hates it so much?
And, by the way, MLK was assassinated in Memphis not Nashville. Fix your blog.

20. I take this shit the same way I take anti Catholicism
The south aint perfect, thats for sure but we got a lot of good too, same with the north, ya know what is better about the south than the north though, we got more warmer weather than they do. On the anti Catholicism, I take it personally the same way I take this, its just unfair of northerners to make unfair assumptions.

19. That would be "M-E-A-N-I-N-G"
Not to be nitpicky, but we are talking about the correlation between region and intelligence. ;-)

9. TASTE/SENSIBILITIES DO NOT NECESSARILY REFLECT INTELLIGENCE
Edited on Fri Aug-06-04 12:22 AM by mahayasmellbad
One's politics, even, don't necessarily reflect intelligence

What a champion jerk this guy is

But hey, it's a free country

Edit: Typing skills are also an unqualified indicator of intelligence

Edited on Fri Aug-06-04 12:41 AM by LoZoccolo
UAW used to pay for that ie America radio he was on and he starts using it to advance his MIHOP theory. Now this.

29. I love it when he pounds the Bush Crime Family
Which is justified by reality. But to descend into regionalism, especially when he's part of the region he holds up to scorn, is just plain silly and in my opinion counterproductive.

32. Or maybe he could be motivating them to prove him wrong
Sort of like Bear Bryant walking into the locker room at halftime of the Alabama/Auburn game telling his team they're playing like a bunch waterheads. He's pissing them off so they rip a Auburn players head off his fucking shoulders in the second half and win the game.

41. well when someone calls me a dumbass

42. How dare he say that!
We're not dumber, just politically backward, ultra-religous zenophobes who constantly vote for which ever Republican that says they hate gays the most. It's very depressing living in Texas, you meet all these nice people who smile and wave, but all these nice people happily vote to put the most vile, hate filled creatures they can find into power. Smart people elected Delay? Smart people "elected" Bush*? Anyone who'd vote for these guys is dumb, evil, or both. I'm hoping we're just dumb.

44. If any of my relatives on my father or step-father's side heard that
they'd turn around and not vote for Kerry or not vote at all. Exception with some on my dad's side cause they're already Republicans. They'd take it as a compliment.
