Do I agree with this?

Not sure, but it will be extremely annoying to some, and this is NSR.

"The real problem is that rural Americans don't understand the causes of their own situations and fears and they have shown no interest in finding out. They don’t want to know why they feel the way they do or why they are struggling because they don’t want to admit it is in large part because of the choices they’ve made and the horrible things they’ve allowed themselves to believe."

And that's what cons want for the rest of America. Don't vote for cons.

As someone that was raised white and christian who is now a black/cherokee/celtic/viking atheist, I am not sure how I feel about this.

embrace your diversity
especially the black part,
its all good chief, as long as you can still pass for white to a cop.

Ain't that the truth.

I met a few of these women while at UF.  Failed to get past first base on every one of them.  

I did have a lot of fun trying though.

I was dragged out of my car and beaten on A1A last night by a po-po.

Sadly, I think the word is already out that I am black.

Nothing new there. Just another elitest, condescending prog jerk calling white, rural Americans racist idiots. They are a dime a dozen. The PiC started this trend 9 years ago.

But he was right about one thing - the dems should not try to court that vote. I'll go one step further - dem politicians should continue publically denouncing these racist dopes at every opportunity.

I do have to wonder what the response would be had he substituted "Islam" for "Christianity."

Quite right. The Democrat Party needs to learn that winning is more important than being right or helping people. They need to patronize and glad-hand these people so that they can properly cut them off at the knees after they get the vote; do it like the Republicans and their "clean coal, really clean beautiful coal" and the manufacturing jobs that aren't coming back and the health care premiums that aren't going to go down under either the House or Senate bills that are being floated.

Man I wish that the House health care bill would go into effect tomorrow.
