[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Opinion worth reading.

Bushites, we're told, tend to dwell in red states (read: rural) and belong to the newest category - the "Retro" group. They lean toward evangelical Christian beliefs, tote guns, attend NASCAR races and prefer God in their Pledge of Allegiance. They are, in other words, ignorant, bigoted, intolerant and un-evolved. Or so we are to infer.

This was in the Indianapolis star this morning. I however was unable to find it linked on their webpage.
The point in red, was left out of the Star. Would love to hear some opinions on this from other "ignorant, bigoted, intolerant and un-evolved" folks like me.

EXCUSE ME?! I'm sorry.. but that [explitive deleted] needs a big fat boot to the skull. She is calling me/us ignorant? She must not have any mirrors in her little $1500/mth 10th floor METRO apartment.

They underestimate us, and they will continue losing.

No, she was rhetorically explaining the positions of the left.

Apparently, the Indy rag cut out the sentence fragment which made that clear.

I've been called worse. That is usually how it goes when Democrats are losing. They don't think twice about name calling. Nothing new here.

Seems like she was clearly making fun of the left in her piece.

Did any of you guys bother to actually follow the link and read the column?

Kerryites, by contrast, tend to occupy the blue metropolitan, and therefore cosmopolitan, areas. They are, of course, wildly sophisticated, tolerant, educated and progressive.

They also apparently enjoy conducting surveys and crunching data, as Retros are too busy harvesting crops and trucking them to inner-city markets for the nourishment of the Starbucks and low-glycemic carb set to dabble long in the obsessive-compulsive exercise of counting, labeling and cataloging America's appetites.

I also noted a banner ad on the page for a book titled Intellectual Morons.

It is startling how many Americans fall for cockamamie ideas that a child can see through. The trouble is, their lies become institutionalized as truth, and we all suffer as a result. Why are liberals such easy prey for stupid ideas? Daniel J. Flynn reveals the answer in Intellectual Morons.

I missed the banner ad, but I read the article.
