Hockey Mom's and Joe Six-pack rule
REG HENRY

"You know what I think is the greatest thing to come out of this presidential campaign season? The fact that Joe Six-Pack and the hockey moms are finally getting the respect they deserve.

We can thank Sarah Palin for that as we can for so much recent amusement, you betcha.

In the vice presidential debate, Palin challenged hockey moms and Joe Six-Pack to keep Wall Street honest. And why not? It's not like they are encumbered by special knowledge that would complicate the task.

Joe Six-Pack and I go way back. Heck, he and I are like brothers in hops. I suspect some of you elitists have the impression that good ol' Joe doesn't know a thing or two. Excuse me, but Joe probably knows as many as half a dozen things, all of them cranky and negative."

1. uh, we've been living under "joe six-pack" rule for decades
so it would be nice if those of us who aren't knuckle-draggers could get some respect for once, too.

2. Yikes!
"To which she replied wittily: "Well, he should have punched him harder!" "

I think I've said worse ~CRINGE~

As a competitive Karate mom, lemme just say in my defense.........my son is "supposed" to punch!

I am totally his biggest fan!
