Then maybe you have no right to any fucking opinion whatsoever about what goes on there or why they elect the boneheads they do, run their schools the way they do, deny gays their rights the way they do, stick their noses into women's reproductive organs the way they do, or any other crap they do. After you've spent 4 weeks in Gilmer, Texas, come back an educate me all about it.
I've been to every one of the 50 states and lived in Texas and have spent quite a bit of time in East Texas and Northwest Louisiana (the better part of three years). FWIW, I've never lived north of the Mason/Dixon line (Maryland, Virginia, Louisiana and Texas). I very much like the American South and Southwest and like a lot about the culture in those places. However, I admit to not having a warm spot for 'Baggers, probably because my mother-in-law is one.
