We (Republicans) Are All White Trash Now

The woman on Fox just now interviewed someone from Canada. It seems this post, "A Mighty Wind blows through Republican convention," by one Heather Mallick, suggests those who vote McCain/Palin are White trash. Read it here. Please post the Fox interview video if you find it. http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2008/09/05/f-vp-mallick.html

Count me in too!

OMG, I am so flippin’ steamed right now. I really don't give a damn that this woman is Canadian and her point of view (read below) shouldn't matter because she’s not American.

Her vulgar and crude comments are outrageous! I’m trying to laugh at this, but I’m having a hard time. To me, this is a perfect example of elitism. It’s voices like Mallick’s that in my ever humble opinion really only represent a very small percentage of Americans and in no way is representative of the way MOST Americans feel and think – we are the Silent Majority and we need to make our voices heard loud and clear. I implore all of us – the “white trash” American men and women to get highly motivated to make sure that McCain / Palin are elected on November 4th so we can send a strong message to the socialist, liberals both here in the U.S., in Canada and around the world that the U.S. is our country and we refuse to let the fringe left have it in their control! Oh, and just in case anyone thinks I’m being racist because I’m calling on “white trash”, please. In conclusion, I can’t stand Pamela Anderson, but using her words, I think Heather Mallick “can suck it!” If she could handle it.

There’s a mighty wind alright, but it’s coming from north of the border and south of Heather Mallick’s waistline.

White Trash is like poor whites or is it the rich white CEO’s. I know it's rich white homeless people. That's what republicans are.

"The woman on Fox just now interviewed someone from Canada...."

I videotaped the interview - the woman was Megyn Kelly. She interviewed David Warren of the "Ottawa Citizen", who said, "Lots of people believe that (Palin supporters are white trash)."

Megyn Kelly is the woman who interviewed the guy from Canada. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,133828,00.html

That’s a man.

[combat_boots]

Thanks.

I like Megyn. She has moxie.

“Not that there’s anything wrong with that.”

“Not that there’s anything wrong with that.”

With what?

BTW- if you view yourself as "white trash", don't bother responding to the question.

[mom3boys]

Wow, I didn't know I was white trash!

I'm Filipino so this comes as a big surprise to me. I'll make sure I tell my Republican husband he's white trash too. He'll also be surprised since he's Hispanic. Oh! I forgot! My son just registered to vote yesterday and listed his party as "Republican." I guess he's white trash too, even though he's half Asian, half Hispanic.

I'm so grateful to this woman for telling us what we really are!

[TNdandelion]

Is that a man or a woman? Even I can’t tell.

How dare you insult Geddy Lee like that?

“Lots of people believe that (Palin supporters are white trash).”

It was just a Seinfeld throw-away line.

My large extended family has at least two revolutionary war soldier ancestors. They came to the Ozarks and stayed for nine generations. I guess we are all white trash, but the meth addicted, toothless, alcoholic, ex-cons are all DEMS. I have to love them anyway cuz they are kin.

THIS IS SPARTA !!!!!!!!!!!!!

See? Now I’m in trouble here, too. Wait till I get home tonight and face Rush’s big fan.

Ok everyone, we've seen this before. It seems to be the same old "they're stupid" attack that they launched against George W. Bush and Reagan. Is there a pattern? All three of those were from the west/southwest. Now, the only exception to the pattern was GHWBush. However, he probably didn't qualify because he always vacationed in Kennebunkport, rather than TX.

What other exception are we seeing to this tactic? They haven't tried it on McCain, but I suspect they'll soon be saying he's stupid too - though they'll claim it's a medical condition (i.e., dementia).

Analysis anyone?
