Reply #12: If Tweed's with you [View All]

Then I am, too! I only have a few minutes to read DU for now, so I only scanned your original post (promise to read it in detail later tonight). Tweedtheater has posted quite a bit I agree with the past week or so, so I'm throwing my lot in with him/her. (No pressure, of course, TT!).

Seriously, the whole "red" and "blue" comparison is so oversimplified that my five-year-old has learned enough in kindergarten to know that life is more complex than that. I NEVER expected to be cast in the role of defender of the South, but in the face of such blind demonization, even I find things worth championing in my much-maligned region.
