Words Fail Me 0
From time to time, I consider going into a rant about how the media tends to portray Southerners as bumpkins, idiots, and morons.
Something always happens to dissuade me–usually some Southerner acting like an idiotic moronic bumpkin:
“Good Lord, no,” Brad Staats told The Tennessean in a telephone interview on Monday. “Absolutely not. I’m not one of those that would ever threaten the president. He’s probably got enough of his own stuff to worry about without me.”
I think I can understand Mr. Staats’s puzzlement as to why cyber-brandishing a gun and calling out the President should be worthy of note. I can hear the wheels grinding slowly in his head. I hazard that they sound somewhat like this:
He’s just one of them darkies. And an uppity one at that.
What’s the big deal?
Pah!
