Not so ... the vast majority of Yankees do get it, Bubba. You've got more friends than you know.
So the vast majority of yankees are in newly red NE states?
Hmmm, seems to me I remember exactly why I never returned to Pa.
You've hit on the real problem. Most of these Southerners will scream and wail about bigotry for hours on end, then turn on a dime and make the most sweeping generalizations about yankees possible. To hear them talk no one north of the Mason Dixon line has ever even heard of family, let alone hold any family values.
We'd like to see them, please :)
Bring them out more often.
