DEL.ICIO.USDems’ fightin’ words
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Blogger Kenny Be out in Colorado, where Democrats are holding their nominating convention next year, is doing profiles of all the state delegations attending the get together and was kind enough to share this with us.
In the section on how to recognize Georgia delegates at the convention, Kenny Be offers this: “Everyone hates Georgia, and they always have. That’s why ‘Gone with the Wind’ (about the Civil War burning of Atlanta) has been America’s all-time favorite movie.”
Wait, there’s more: “Georgians have all the personality of a high-school security guard. All strangers are suspects, and all rules are made to be enforced — or, better yet, created on the spot.”
And finally: “To find a Georgian at the 2008 Denver Democratic National Convention, just look for the delegates who are demanding arcane new procedures and laughing at those who ask why.”
Oh, Kenny Be, know this: If that convention ever comes back to Atlanta, Kenny Be in trouble.

Dem big city boys ought to listen to advice but they wont. Tom Murphy and the good ole boys told em leave the flag alone and build reservoirs to flush them atlanter toilets. Boss Hawg got better sense than them.

Before anyone goes off on some hissy fit, go look at the website and some of the other posts. It’s pretty funny and doesn’t let anyone off the hook.

I can’t believe it. Some lib has an arrogant attitude towards Georgians? Really? I think this would be news if they were polite. GA is a red state and is met with derision by the left all the time. I, for one, am not surprised. Funny thing is that libs can’t figure out why they lost the south. This uppity, know-better attitude is the reason. I am confident they will not figure it out.

It’s a humor blog, folks. I think somebody’s desperate for site traffic—and it may not be the blogger.
