I've never understood why the left pounced on the word, "cowboy". Cowboys are respresented as being trustful, hardworking, quiet, thoughtful, strong shouldered, honest, plain talking, cut to the chase, one of the good guys, and if you must, a hero.

People in urban centers seem to consider "cowboy" as a derogatory term. People in the red areas of the country usually know or have known the real cowboy. They know them to be as you described. I personally LOVE COWBOYS. ( Including the Dallas ones before Jerry Jones)
