For any waverers out there in Teabagville who may be wondering how the 'ideas' of Chairman Limbaugh et al., have managed to seep so deeply into the Redneck psyche, let me offer this quick rundown of where they're from. (NB: I wouldn't usually subscribe to regionalism. But if I can exercise the xenophobic muscle of a few antebellum Teabaggers to stop listening to the demagogues listed below, I will consider it God's work.)
Rush Limabugh
Born: Girardeau, Missouri.
Status: Fake Redneck Yankee
Glenn Beck
Born: Mount Vernon, Washington
Staus: Pacific Northwest Yankee.
Sean Hannity
Born: New York City
Status: New York Irish Yankee
Michele Bachmann
Born: Waterloo, Iowa
Status: Midwest Flyover Belt Yankee
Joe "You Lie" Wilson
Born: Charleston, South Carolina
Status: I admit he's a fully-fledged redneck, but I'll clutch at straws and ask if having a daddy called 'Hugh de Veaux' doesn't sound a little Frenchified?
