It would tickle me pink to know that the Dem bust of the great 0 came from Middle America!

What part of the fascists' agenda works for the rural people?

He doesn’t get America, period. He didn’t spend his formative years here, and he’s not an American in upbringing.

So much of the Democratic core seems to not understand and/or is actually hostile to rural America. Maybe I’m being unfair, but I just can’t think of Bill Maher and farm work going together.

Rural Democrats differ with Barack Obama (he doesn't get rural America)

He also doesn't care, as long as they vote Dem.

I live in the country. I have my own well, septic and maintain my drive way which is over 1/4 mile long. My wife home schools. The only bill I have for “sevices” is for electricity and cell phone. My .45 and two dogs supply security. I require zero from the feds and very little from the state/county. If I could get off the electrical grid, I would.

I tell ya, (not that I’m hoping it happens, btw) but just in case the everlovin’ sh*t hits the fan, I will be sitting back with popcorn with the rest of the FReepers. It should be quite the hoot to watch all these people trying to get along, day to day, without the farmers, handymen, seamstresses, mechanics, etc. If this elitist crowd has to get by, on its own devices, it will be one for the archives.

In fact, this is one of the very arguments I used (over time), to get my formerly lib elite b/f off his high horse.

Everytime something would go wrong at his place, I’d hit him with it:

(Car broke) “Hey babe, why don’t you call a French Lit major from Harvard?”

(AC/Heat broke) “Honey, I was just thinking today...the next time that happens to me, I’m going to call the kid up the street who just got his master’s in Philosophy to see if he can help me out!”

(Roof leaking onto electrical box) “That reminds me, I gotta call back my cousin, Dr. Diane, who has her PhD in Women’s History.”

LOL...evidently I made my point. :)

“They don’t get rural America,” said Rep. Dennis Cardoza, a Democrat who represents California’s agriculture-rich Central Valley. “They form their views of the world in large cities.”

What's this "they" $hit?

Here’s a little vignette for all of you. I have a friend who claims to be a liberal and votes for all of the liberal politicians. I am on his e-mail list. A list in which he sends e-mails that rail against gun control, illegal immigration and taxes. Again, this is coming from someone who claims to be a liberal democrat.

Some people out here really don’t get it as far as who is fighting for the things they believe in. Granted, not all Republicans, but the majority of the people fighting for what he (and I) believe in are in the Republican party, yet he helped to elect Obama. There’s a lot of disconnect going on out there...

The inner cities fear us backwoods rural savages.

All I can say is when things go really upside down and the cities fall it WILL be rural America that resurrects America.

Movies like “The Postman” sometimes tend to actually become prophetic I believe.

This article also touches on the closing of automobile dealerships and how this can have an outsized affect on rural communities. From the article:
Sen. Kay Hagan (D-N.C.) questioned how independent owned and operated businesses have any financial impact on automakers.

“None of us can quite understand why they consider dealerships a drag when they are the ones that buy the cars, that take the financial risks. Many of the dealerships that are being closed are profitable.”

Bump to you Sen. Hagan. I don't understand it either. And I'd really like to know the answer.

Don't worry, that lil ol islamic bomb will take care of that pesky large city thing for you in due time.
