Hey, Liberals - Before You Bash "Rural America"...

It has become the new pasttime among liberals and progressives, most notably in our media, universities and among celebrities to bash and trash the "common people" of rural America. In their sheer arrogance and ignorance they equate the  common people as being illiterate country rednecks. Nothing could be further from the truth. So, before they go bashing the people from the fly-over states, they should stop for just a moment to remember...

It was rural farmers who won the Revolutionary War and gave us this great Republic - the only nation ever formed on the principles of freedom for all people. In fact, in every revolution it is the commoners that overturn tyranny.

It was commoners - rural farmers and fishermen - that Jesus chose as his Disciples.

It is rural farmers who feed us - without them, we would all starve.

Thomas Edison was born in middle America, as was Henry Ford. Eli Whitney was the son of a farmer.

Most of the REAL movie stars that created Hollywood, like Jimmy Stewart (rural Indiana) and  John Wayne (rural Iowa) just to name a couple were born and raised as common people, as were many of our Founding Fathers.

The point is this - many, if not most of the more famous and intelligent people of accomplishment were not born and raised in liberal metropolitan centers. They started out as commoners and rural folks. The problem does not begin until they move to liberal centers because of the opportunities that are found there, and soon become jaded by all the glitter, glitz and neon lights.

And for the record, where you live and what you choose as your life's work is not any indicator of intellect. I, myself was raised in a very tiny farm community in New Hampshire, and it was my class of 30 students that produced nine of the highest I.Q.'s that were high enough to become members of Mensa - so-called genius class. Farmers and commoners.

So, before anyone is so self-absorbed and arrogant as to believe the "common people" should be discounted and not given any credit for their share of intellect and accomplishment, I suggest they do their homework.

Wake up, America - the liberal media and universities, and most over-paid and egotistical celebrities so who are so full of themselves (though they have the least reason to be) are attacking the very heart and core of our nation. It is time to stand up and put them in their place.
