You're kidding, right? This movie is going to put Red State America in a positive light?

I got a Dukes first season DVD for Christmas. We were watching the first episode last night. In an early scene, the boys hook up with 3 other guys, one of them black, to pull a scam on the Sheriff. The black guy doesn't seem to offended by the flag, as he is leaning up against the car it is on.

And now, I'm going to go run out my Confederate battle flag over Col. Robert Gould Shaw's body and whistle Dixie . . . Watch it. Robert Gould Shaw was a fellow Ram (alumnus of Fordham University for those of you in Rio Linda).

And with that sop to the South-bashers and PC crowd, not even Jessica Simpson in a pair of Daisy Dukes and a bikini top could get me to see this movie. I hope it makes "Alexander" look like a blockbuster.

Amen brother! Amen! I used to think Catherine Bach was hot as Daisy, but damn, Jessica looks good in "Daisy Dukes!"
To: Ellesu
Oh, no. The PC Visigoths have ruined one of the stupidest TV shows ever. Noooooooooo!
To: Ellesu
Oh, yeah. The original show was so un-PC (note sarcasm): The only recurring black character was the Sheriff (Sheriff Little) of the neighboring county. He was the only competent representative of the law on the show, and everyone respected him. The boys always high-tailed it back to Hazard as soon as they realized they had wandered into Chickasaw, ol' Roscoe and Boss Hogg stayed away from him so as to avoid getting nailed for their various dastardly deeds, and even Uncle Jesse took different routes out of the county so as not to tangle with him.
Of course, now that I think of it, the libs will still hate the show, because Sheriff Little was, as a lawman, most likely conservative, and we all know libs don't consider conservative blacks to be legitimate.

She's a lovely girl. Talented singer - but can she act? Based on the photo posted in #22, I would say that she is an excellent actress.

Yankee's idea of a Georgian... Not just Georgians. Mississippians and Alabamans, too.

I am violently opposed to Jessica Simpson playing Daisy Duke. The more I read about this movie the less I want to see it.

Am I to be ashamed that some might take offense?
To: Ellesu
All Southerners are bumpkin country redneck hicks who've fallen of the back of a turnip truck. Its a stupid stereotype but in this day and age its sad some people refuse to acknowledge the South has come a long way since the 50s.
