nice story though.
You're right. Because half (well not literally,but a large amount) the vehicles in town were pickup trucks with shotguns in the gun rack and that you couldn't go anywhere without seeing an endless sea of Reagan bumper stickers and the town had 2,000 people in it and had 14 churches screams liberal. Never mind the fact that I lived in that town form the time I was seven until I was 21 so I had a pretty good grasp of what it was like when I was a little older and it hadn't changed at all during that time.

My state in general is very liberal, but it has pockets that are very conservative and I grew up in one of those pockets. You never set foot in the town and while you are a powerful and handsome man, I can assure you I know a little more about its political leanings than you do.

All I am pointing out is that there are white trash republicans out there who live off the system, but have it in their heads that what they are doing is fine for one reason or another. I grew up around a good number of them.
