Cliff,
if you substituted "negro" or "jew" for "redneck" in that post,
would it be seen to be grossly offensive?.

Posting off colour humour about political opponents is not debate - its
bigotry. And you lose any semblance of credibility by doing so. If you
run rabid scripts, then no one will bother to sift through the rubbish
to find the germ of truth. You will be dismissed to the kill file as an
extremist nutter.

You do your cause a disservice by posting such rubbish - how are your
"arguments" any diiferent from the kooky right wing nutters?

No on is ever going to change their mind (or their vote) by being
ridiculed and mocked.

Now, more than ever, we need rational debate between left and right to
try and work our way through the mess the world is in - Mr Bush is
making noises about nuking the Iranians - thats truly nutty and has the
potential to destroy us all. So drop the redneck jokes and try and be a
bit more helpful and constructive.

PS - sorry to be OT people, its just that sometimes, and more often of
late, I despair of our worlds collective future......

A fellow from up north had an opportunity to go duck hunting with his
country cousin Bubba ... and loved it! He was particularly
impressed with how Gitem the dog performed, sitting quietly untill
a duck was dropped, then jumping into the cold water, swimming out and
retrieving the duck unruffled.

He decided on the spot that he wanted such a dog. Bubba said to be
sure and check the pup to see if it would be suitable for duck
hunting. "How might I do that, Bubba?"

"Stick yer finger in its butt. It has to be a tight fit, 'cuz if'n
it ain't the dog'll take on water and sink."

"Oh...yes, I see." So he visited the dog breeder at home, announcing
that he wanted a dog suitable for duck hunting. The breeder said
"This little Lab pup will make a fine hunting dog." "Hm let me check"
-- and so he did. "No, this dog won't do." The dog breeder looked
in belwielderment, said "why?" The guy explained.

"Yeah, right, well, hang on a minute." The breeder grabbed the pup's
balls and gave them a twist. "Check him now; I had him set for
dove....."
