It is funny when Conservativs get stereotyped, but if I start to put some liberal stereotypes, I will be slammed with negatives and a moderator will suspend me.
There are at least a zillion more "definitions" out there. If you read them, you'll see what I mean. There is nothing separating the ideals of the fictitious north-eastern Wall Street stiff who makes $500,000 a year(that was mentioned above), from that of Billy Bob Smith who drives the gun-racked pickup living in the "Grassy Knoll Trailer Park".(Who actually exists). One of them has just figured out how to work the system a little better than the other.

So much for free speech and tolerance!
You sure about that? You might get some negative responses, but I doubt any moderator will suspend you as long as you don't get personal.

I contend that powerful neocons like Dubya, McCain, Karl Rove, Feith, Wolfowitz, Perle, Bernanke, and Chertoff only appear to share the values of Joe Sixpack, who is far too much in the dark about such men to recognize how different they really are from him. This is why I drew a distinction between conservative and neoconservative in my previous post.

Oh I never said THOSE folks shared the same values. Joe Sixpack only THINKS they do, which is why those fools have been ruling the roost for 7 years.
I still don't get the significance of your distinction? A neocon can be homeless, lol. It has nothing to do with your economic background.
I am deathly afraid of NASCAR people. These guy in the pick-up trucks with gun racks and confederate flags. Outside of fixing cars they have IQ's of 2.5 yet they always spout out of the mouth about politics. Let's not forget the centuries of inbreeding.
Don't think these people have power among conservatives? Watch NASCAR and count how many Ricky Bobbys there are....MILLIONS!

"Deathly afraid?" Of what? I note that your description of "NASCAR people" is comprised entirely of stereotypes. No offense, but that makes you look paranoid, whether you really are or not.
PPG, I don't think your stereotype of NASCAR is correct. Maybe it's from watching Talladega Nights too many times or something, but in actuality, NASCAR is one of the fastest growing "sports" in the country and the amount of sponsorship dollars that passes through would make you think twice about the term NASCAR people. Sure, there are probably tons of people just like the stereotype that you mentioned, but I don't think it has anything to do with being NASCAR fans. I mean, I'm sure they like football and baseball too. The part about centuries of inbreeding is merely an attack which deserves no merit in my book.
