It's John Brummett, he doesn't known nothing about anything much.

[LadyPilgrim]

You got that right!

[js1138]

Got that right.

If Dean wants the quintessential Southern white man’s vote, then he needs to shut up about the Rebel flag and come on down for deer and duck seasons. Then he needs to go the SEC championship game. And of course he should stay for church.

He's tryin' real hard, tho....

The author doubtfuly knows the difference 'tween
grillin and bbq- southern man my a**.

Sums it up for me, I'm in TN, the thing I would change....lives for running his coon dogs!

[South Dakota]

I'm from the south,,South Dakota. I guess that makes me a gun toting southern white boy. I even sing Dixie sometimes, I like the tune

[LadyPilgrim]

I have a whole family that lives in Ft Smith.

They aren't the same kind of Southern as SC, GA, AL, or MS.
I'm not sure what the difference is, but there IS a difference.

I don't know this John Brummett guy, but I know he isn't a Southern Man.

[Congressman Billybob]

This guy doesn't know Jack Daniels, and he doesn't know Jack Sh*t. I'd like to knock him into next Tuesday, but that would play into his bigoted, supercilious attitude about "Southern males." I'd like to know where this jerk went to school and absorbed his profound ignorance. But he's not worth the trouble to look up the information.

He's not even worth the time to send this comment to him in an e-mail. This man isn't worth two mouse clicks.

I'm a native Texan. Texas is considered part of the "South". I've only met maybe one or two people that even remotely fit this guys "Southern White Male" mold.

[Billthedrill]

This was, I believe, an attempt at humor:

He passes out drunk during the second half of the night game on ESPN, then goes to church on Sunday because he’s a deacon and wants to set a good example for his kids.

Yuk yuk. Does somebody actually pay this clown real money to write?

"He lives for duck season, for which he keeps a heated blind accessible only by boat......."

Only citified pansies have heated duck blinds.

[Kirkwood]

I found the column to be highly racist. Wonder if he's friend's with Michael Moore?

[Paul Atreides]

The author claims to be from the south but knows nothing about southern men.

That type is about the only ones anyone in the media will talk to about the South.

[Bogey78O]

I wonder how he'll typecast Louisianians since we got the most flavor of all the other Southerners.

[Flux Capacitor]

Let these leftist schumcks demonize the Southern White Male all they like. They'll only push them even farther out of the Democrat column then they already have.... and in the end, they (the leftists) can't win presidential elections without the South.

Meanwhile, this Southern White Male Republican is gonna be laughing all the way to the voting booth.

"boorishness"

Once they got out of college, there was not a tiny smidgen of boorishness in any southern man I've ever known.

"Suspicious" of blacks? Southern men (I guess we're talking about white men here, though the author presumptuously ignores the southern black man), and for that matter, southern women, were not the slightest bit suspicious of black men and women, before other people interfered with the relationship, for better or for worse. There was not suspicion btw southern blacks and whites back then--there was, in fact, a strange closeness, and a very deep understanding of one another, for better or for worse.
