A great way to piss off RNC delegates |
|
During the convention, at the nearest "free speach zone" bring out a Confederate flag and burn it. I want to see DeLay and Lott livid with anger.

4. Hell, that's a keeper! |
|
For any occasion! I want to hear the bitching about burning the stars n' bars, and then the realization that they just stepped into a rhetorical landmine.
Egggsellent!

6. You run the risk of losing a lot of voters... |
|
...in the South. Of course with the little history that students learn these days they will probably wonder what it is you are burning.

Been there done that.
If any voter in the south thinks the confederate flag is more important than democratic values, then fug 'em.
I'm tired of being held hostage by 'the southern voter' with the 'don't do this, don't do that or else you'll lose the south' schtick.
If not being offended is more important than getting the GOP whip off their backs, then there isn't anything to be done

9. Your message will be repackaged to be not an attack on... |
|
...a flag or the RNC but as your attitude towards the South in general. Not a good idea.

I refuse to moderate my positions and/or actions cuz it might offend someone.
How about the Southern voter offending me with their ceaseless demands that eventually make for campaigns that DLCers revel in.
Now THAT'S offensive!

11. Then go for it. Knock yourself out. Have fun. Just don't say... |
|
...I didn't warn you.
What demands on you from the South are you talking about? The message I hear the most is just for Washington to be neither seen nor heard but keep sending cash.

the last place people can stereotype and belittle with no fear of impugnity.
yes, i love the jokes about screwing my cousins, being ignorant, and making moonshine. thanks. we down here really appreciate the attitude.
i guess some southerners would want to fight back, but, personally, i think it's enough that people in the north live in a miserable climate with declining infrastructure and being taxed till you puke.
but that's just me.

16. I'm Dallas born and raised |
|
and I agree with them. I see crap like "Larry the Cable Guy" and I want to puke.
The sooner we force the non-thinkers down here to evolve already, the sooner we can stop worrying about offending them.

Barring that we can at least keep sending them away from here and off to the White House. :)
