Am I out of line to finally say where this is heading

[Gman]

that Sarah Palin, killing moose, dropping babies, nutcase fundie, alcoholic DWI convicted husband, creationism advocate and against sex education.... is starting to come across as poor white trailer trash??

Ok... I said it... Seems to me this is where this is headed.

[NotThisTime]

1. You wouldn't be the first to think it, if that helps

[votetastic]

2. Ya think?

[BlooInBloo]

3. That's probably the sort of thing republicans are hoping we'll say....

Regardless of whether or not it's true.

[flamingdem]

4. Could you come up with a more Politically Correct term?

Are there any?

[Gman]

12. Anglo (non-Hispanic), economically disadvantaged residents of a manufactured housing community with

poor interpersonal skills a lack of education,.

[flamingdem]

21. Maybe replace disadvantaged for ironically politically advantaged

and perhaps you could add something about the need to hunt bears and caribou to that..

It is true that it's a category but it is not PC to say White Trash...

[Gman]

24. I think that as of today and through November 4

there are no rules. Decency went out the window in 00 and 04..

[MadMaddie]

5. Oh dear....

:popcorn:

[skooooo]

6. ...most the them don't have law degrees.

She should know better.

[Arugula Latte]

7. Who, this classy lady? How can you say that?

;)

[I Have A Dream]

8. "Poor white trailer trash"...

why do DUers keep using this phrase? It really is extremely insulting to so many people. x(

[BrklynLiberal]

9. Perhaps that is the vote McSame was trying to appeal to...

[seabeyond]

10. you said it before i did. told hubby and a friend this morning

after reading so much about her.... this is where i came. we havent even started to look at how she was raised ect...

we know about mccain, biden and obama..... nothing about her

[PetrusMonsFormicarum]

11. They're counting on smartass lefties

to drag it to that level, so that they can then gain sympathy from the millions of Americans who consciously or not feel that the same label fits themselves.

Personally I don't think we should drag it there, and if Obama has any say, he won't.

[seabeyond]

17. geeeee zus christ... here are some more to tell people where to or not to

go on this board....

[Gman]

18. We do like to think we have a little more class than the RW

Poor white trailer trash is a big part of the base of the RW and GOP.

[seabeyond]

19. call it like it is. this is the person that can very possibly be pres. pretty BIG fuckin deal

do you get it.

i have a couple kids that are counting on us for their future. i happen to think this is IMPORTANT

[yourguide]

13. it doesnt end until there is a mobile home

on the front lawn of the white house.

[Sannum]

14. Yep.

[crim son]

15. Although I don't think you've put it very elegantly,

it's true that the woman doesn't have much of a pedigree; however that will no doubt be part of her appeal, for some.

[progressivebydesign]

16. apparently in her area, they call it "valley trash"

I was actually born white trash, but I recycled myself into the person you read today. ;)

[pnwmom]

20. Agree except for the "poor" part. n/t

[WinkyDink]

22. Frankly, "Republican" fits the bill, for me.

[Gman]

23. Too often they're the same thing

[RadicalTexan]

25. As someone who was called that growing up, by Southern Baptist Republican hypocrites

who moved to my town from elsewhere (usually the North), knew nothing about my family, cared not that we had been living there for six generations already, cared not that my great-grandfather was a state senator, cared not that my relatives were decent, hardworking, honest, nonracist, Democratic voting folks, but noticed only that we bought our clothes locally, did not have manicures, were not members of the white-only country club, and spoke with a Southern accent:

Fuck. You.
