Liberal arrogance. To them the folks in flyover country are dumb hicks who don't bow to their special brand of wisdom. And they wonder why they keep having their rear ends handed to them. Its statements like this that reveal how out of touch they are with mainstream American values.
I like the liberal logic that says decisive US military action against Iraq infuriates the Islamic world. Somehow the image of the US condoning sodomy and licentious women do not infuriate the Islamic world and motivate the most devout Muslim to join Al Qaeda. Liberalism is a mental disease.
