We Southern racists

Lipitor is for pussies.

 

This thread may not end well, but at the moment it's actually better than where it started. Though to be fair, it really didn't take much to improve on how it started.

 

Having learned this, I'll be sure to chair my next symposium on the recurrence of anti-progressive rhetoric in the postmodern American musical theater from the bed of my pick-up.

 

Then why don't you?
Seriously, and zag is a minor offender here, I've always been amused by the winguts who profess to speak for good old common-sense mainstream America, and yet never leave the Beltway. Andrew Sullivan wouldn't be caught dead in Omaha, and Coulter talks about how much she loved working for some rightist judge in KC, and does so from fucking South Beach.
Nothing's stopping you from moving to Waycross, zag. Housing's got to be cheaper.

 

Just don't accidentally bump into the gun rack.

 

I use that move during my lecture on the themes of pre-Marxist misogyny in the text of "Annie Get Your Gun." My signature, in fact. Always gets a big chuckle from the other urban eggheads.

 

I can readily envision HRC and BO doing "Anything You Can Do"

 

Silly cityfolk, the gun rack is in the cab of the truck. You keep your cooler full of beer, your dog(s) and any children who can't fit into the cab in the bed of the truck.

 

Hopefully this kind of thinking will be why McCain sweeps the south in the general election...

 

True. I would fail miserably at being a Southerner.

 

Are those instant grits or regular grits?
How do you like 'em - regular, creamy or al dente?

 

I'm offering classes on "How to be Southern (or at least fit in)" down at the local college for all the transplanted yankees and snowbird retirees. I could see if it's offered online if you'd like.
