Fox News recently picked up on a piece by the National Post’s Jonathan Kay which takes on the Canadian Broadcast Corporation (CBC) because one of its columnists, Heather Mallick, recently included incendiary comments in her September 5 column, on CBC's Web site, "A Mighty Wind blows through Republican convention," about Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, contending that Palin has the "toned-down version of the porn actress look," and attacking people in small towns as she charged that Palin "added nothing to the ticket that the Republicans didn't already have sewn up, the white trash vote, the demographic that sullies America's name inside and outside its borders yet has such a curious appeal for the right."

This explains a lot about your attitudes toward cities. People usually have a soft spot for where they were born and raised.
Still, it makes no sense to preserve the prejudices from your less than ideal adolescent years and project them upon the people who do not live in the city today.
I find cities suffocating and sterile places, but I don't characterize all the people there as atrophied industrialized zombies who lack all connection to the natural world.
There are a lot of people who prefer to live in cities. I applaud them. It leaves much more of the type of country that I enjoy for me.
Unlike yourself, I grew up in near wilderness. My family farm is now part of a National Park. I have no desire to live in a City.
Is that this Mallick person ?
Geeeezzzzz..If so it explains her statement.Any pig that ugly must really hate good looking women like Palin.
Poor thing ...yuck !!!!
Yep, he’s a bigot.
Mallick's a bigot.

To quote Tyler Durden:
Look, the people(white trash) you are after are the people you depend on. We cook your meals, we haul your trash, we connect your calls, we drive your ambulances. We guard you while you sleep.
Do not... f^&k with us.
Hey, go easy on her, I’ve done worse....

Eta JimaWish I could go there now... stress from this metropolis gets a little deeper, bit by bit, every day.... after 11 years here, all I want is a couple of trees.. a few cougars, brown bears, whitetail deer, rabbits... etc.. and, of course a cabin to live in... A family would be nice too... but haven't had one of those for a few years...
The liberal writer is talking about how another woman looks?
Apparently, Quasimodo was an amateur. Woof.
guess my experience has been different. i live in the Northern VA suburbs of DC and there are tons of professionals who are moving farther out to the shenandoahs and commuting in for the small town life.
