Too late, the inner man oozed out.

“Another group that I’ve noticed this to be the case with, at least as far as assumptions based on stereotypes are made, is poor rural whites - you know, the stereotypical trailer-dwelling, truck on blocks in the front yard, Wal-Mart-shopping, good ol’ boy types. Fact is, these folks generally are not religious. They may go on TV and say stuff like “Sweet Jeeeeeesus, I thought that thar tornader was gonna take ma trailer!” but that doesn’t mean you’ll find these folks in church on Sunday in large numbers. Actually, you won’t. Trust me, I’ve done a lot of door-to-door and visitation in a lot of neighbourhoods, and this type of folk talk a lot about God and they sound religious, but don’t typically have much to do with religion.

Yet, when they vote Democrat so that the welfare will keep flowing, you then have people like meadsjn squawking about all these “SoCons” are voting Democrat. Except these folks aren’t SoCons. They aren’t really against abortion, and to the extent that they would oppose gay marriage, it would not be out of any moral or philosophical principles, but instead would be because “them queers jus’ ain’t raaaht.”

Wow, you really seem to have a chip on your shoulder and want to moan about something.

Somebody tip over the truck on blocks in your front yard again?
