I’m a Redneck!!! (And I didn’t even know)


I have to thank Representative John Murtha of Pennsylvania for clarifying my core beliefs. Evidently, since I grew up in western Pennsylvania, I’m a redneck. His reference meaning that I won’t vote for Barack Obama just because he is black. Well, if the good representative from my home state knew anything about his constituents, he would know that is very far from the reason. He’s right that I don’t support Barack Obama. But for some other very significant reasons:
I don’t agree with Socialism – I support capitalism.
I don’t agree with big government – I support smaller government.
I don’t agree with higher taxes – I support lower taxes (for everyone regardless of income).
I don’t agree with providing aid and comfort to our enemies – I support our troops.
Sorry to disappoint the fine Democrat from Pennsylvania, but that’s the beliefs western Pennsylvania instilled in me.
