Get over it.

Originally from Chicago I live in Louisville, KY for 8 years. What are rural interests: basketball, guns, and Jesus. Not much interest in news, unless it's about basketball. They just eat up all the hype that Fox News can dish out. Fear and paranoia are popular, especially about healthcare. Like, it's like those commie Europeans, Obama will destroy America, etc. etc.

You righties ALWAYS say.."why do liberals not support liberty". That is so old.

Once again, Liberal/Democrats will pass monumental change in this country.
Once again, the Republicans will go down in history as the party that attempted to block progress.
Who said I was on the right? Just because I don't want government control of everything doesn't make me on the 'right'. Those people want to take away just as many freedoms as people on the left do. THEY'RE ALL THE SAME!!!! Yes, you are no different than a conservative.

You see most folks who live in the country regard the term Hick as an insult. Not unlike calling a farmer a redneck simply because he is a farmer.
Hick = Yokel a derogatory stereotype.

Find a majority of Republicans who support the legalization of same-sex marriage and marijuana, and then maybe you'll have a good argument.
