You of all people should not be calling others rednecks.

Even though it was posted in jest, how in the hell am I a redneck? Lemme guess, because I'm a conservative. F'n lame.

See this is why it's impossible for me to hate you.

Just remember, Ricky Steamboat will forever belong to the NWA. His matches with Ric Flair are the stuff of legends.

I'd say because you are an Ole Miss fan... I don't think they have any non-redneck caucasian fans :).

Who, Ole Miss? Yeah, and we still drive on gravel roads, school is segregated, and we have gold-plated water fountains with a big diamond-studded "Whites Only" on every floor of every building.

...and no, it's because I'm a conservative and from the South, NEITHER am I ashamed of and I would want to live in no other place. RobertN, once again, shows how elitist liberals truly are. Check out my "Second-Class Delegates" thread.

At least you can admit to it.

Michelle Obama on the coming Obama-Theocracy:

Audio

Quote:In 2008, we are still a nation that is too divided. We live in isolation, and because of that isolation, we fear one another. We don't know our neighbors, we don't talk, we believe our pain is our own. We don't realize that the struggles and challenges of all of us are the same. We are too isolated. And we are still a nation that is still too cynical. We look at it as "them" and "they" as opposed to "us". We don't engage because we are still too cynical. ...
Americans are not in debt because they live frivolously but because someone got sick. Even with insurance, the deductibles and the premiums are so high that people are still putting medications and treatments on credit cards. And they can't get out from under. I could go on and on, but this is how we're living, people, in 2008.

And things have gotten progressively worse throughout my lifetime, through Democratic and Republican administrations, it hasn't gotten better for regular folks. ....

We have lost the understanding that in a democracy, we have a mutual obligation to one another -- that we cannot measure the greatness of our society by the strongest and richest of us, but we have to measure our greatness by the least of these. That we have to compromise and sacrifice for one another in order to get things done. That is why I am here, because Barack Obama is the only person in this who understands that. That before we can work on the problems, we have to fix our souls. Our souls are broken in this nation.

i'm sorry, but the Government is not going to "fix your soul" and its the last place I'd look for it.

it should also be pointed out how much better the "poor" in this country live now, vs. 10 years ago, vs. 20 years ago...and so on.

Obamaniacs eat that crap up. OU probably shed a few tears when he heard it.

It's empty rhetoric and sad on many levels. However it's the foundational principal of liberalism. Government is essential for you to live, work and prosper. You can't without it. So elect us and we'll make it all better for you. The nanny state at it's finest.

Michelle Obama's America -- and Mine

Quote:Like Michelle Obama, I am a "woman of color." Like Michelle Obama, I am a working mother of two young children. Like Michelle Obama, I am a member of the 13th generation of Americans born since the founding of our great nation.

Unlike Michelle Obama, I can't keep track of the number of times I've been proud -- really proud -- of my country since I was born and privileged to live in it.

Quote:Mrs. Obama's statement was met with warm applause from other Barack supporters who have apparently also been devoid of pride in their country for their adult lifetimes. Or maybe it was just a Pavlovian response to the word "change." What a sad, empty, narcissistic, ungrateful, unthinking lot.

Quote:Michelle Obama has achieved enormous professional success, political influence and personal acclaim in America. Ivy League-educated, she's been lauded by Essence magazine as one of the 25 World's Most Inspiring Women; by Vanity Fair as one of the 10 World's Best-Dressed Women; and named one of "The Harvard 100" most influential alumni. She has had an amazingly blessed life. But you wouldn't know it from her campaign rhetoric and her griping about her and her husband's student loans. For years, we've heard liberals get offended at any challenge to their patriotism. And so they are again aggrieved and rising to explain away Mrs. Obama's remarks.
