        \_ 'starts with "w" rhymes with "ite trash"'-- RACIST!!!
          By the way, can you be nicer to black voters and somewhat ignore
          white voters? Even though that is horrible in the eyes of the
          open minded liberals, it'll really help out in the grand scheme
          of things. Thanks.      -non-religious non-gun non-SUV liberal
          \_ If the election honestly went to Dubya but you were given a magic
             button that would let you magically change the outcome would you
             press it?
          \_ Um, white trash is white trash is white trash.  He only mentions
             black voters via links to some fairly civilized articles &
             editorials; the whole web page is pretty muted and discrete and
             a bit bland (sorry dude).  You make it sound as if he's just
             about frothing at the mouth... -John
             \_ DUDE! net access here is hard to come by... what do you want?
                voter scandas? I'm looking! So far not too much has happened
                I got to practice my spanish today and persuaded a few.
                apathetic Kerry supporters to get to the poles. How do you
                suggest I spice it up? Tonight we're going out so maybe I'll
                hook up w/ some liberal chicks and post the pics. SEriously,
                what do you want to hear?               - rory
                \_ Sorry, I wasn't criticizing, the "bland" bit is just to
                   be taken in context of my reply to the other guy.  If you
                   want to make it more interesting, I'd include more pics,
                   and some more narrative (and lose the foot blister.)  It's
                   a pretty interesting topic.
             \_ So there's white trash... do you believe there's black trash?
                Hispanic trash?  Jewish trash?  Old trash?  Young-cell-phone
                using-not-counted-in-the-polls-never-voted-before-trash?
                \_ Every "cultural" or "ethnic" or "national" group has its
                   shit.  What exactly is your point?  -John
                   \_ You feel comfortable calling people white trash.  How
                      often have you referred to any other 'cultural, ethnic or
                      nation group' as "$groupname trash"?
                      \_ Uh, loads.  If I think someone exhibits reprehensible
                         qualities which I see as being stereotypical of
                         whatever "$groupname" as you put it they hail from,
                         I'll certainly say it.  -John
                         \_ So if you go through a poor black neighborhood with
                            "stereotype" black behavior you'd call them black
                            trash? The word "trash" is pretty Nazi if you think
                            about it.
                            \_ No, I'd call them "poor black trash" if they
                               exhibit reprehensible qualities which I see as
                               being steretypical of black people, the same
                               with poor white trash or poor $grouname trash,
                               whatever.  You did not seem to note my choice
                               of words, young padawan.  If someone who should
                               know better is being an uncivilized
                               neanderthal, I don't discriminate based on
                               skin color.  So I guess I'm a nazi now.  Where
                               do I vote?  -John
                               \_ HEIL GERMAN JOHN ein reich ein fuhrer ein joh
