Re: You might be a redneck if... A different take

Here's my slightly different take on the different take (see at bottom) that was forwarded to me by a conservative Republican:

You might be a redneck if: You think the phrase, 'One nation, under God,' excludes non-Christians.

You might be a redneck if: You've never protested seeing the 10 Commandments, of which you know 3 to 5, posted in public places like courthouses, where you appeared for that DUI, or in schools, which you opted not to attend.

*Bonus: You might be a redneck if: You think "home schooling" is when pappy took a belt to your hide and said, "That'll larn ya."

You might be a redneck if: You still say 'nigger/kike/spick/camel jockey' instead of 'African-American/Jewish/Latino/Arab'.

You might be a redneck if: You bow your head when someone prays, as you plot to grab the extra-crispy drumstick first.

You might be a redneck if: You stand and place your hand over your heart when they play the National Anthem and hold your 32-oz Bud at a respectful gut level.

You might be a redneck if: You treat our armed forces veterans with great respect, and always have, because you are an armed forces veteran.

You might be a redneck if: You've never burned an American flag, nor intend to, nor have you ever taken down your treasonous Confederate flag, nor intend to.

You might be a redneck if: You know what you believe and you aren't afraid to say so, no matter who is listening, even if the TV screen or bartender can't understand your slurred speech.

You might be a redneck if: You respect your elders (after all, granny is 42 and gramps is almost 50!) and raised yer youngins to do the same.

You might be a redneck if: You'd give your last dollar to a friend, because he gave you his last dollar the week before, and you him the week before that, etc., etc.


IF YOU DON'T FEEL LIKE STANDING IN FRONT OF OUR TROOPS, TELL EVERYONE LOUDLY AND PATRIOTICALLY THAT YOU STAND BEHIND THEM!

You Might Be a Redneck....a different take

We have enjoyed the redneck jokes for years. It's time to take a reflective look at the core beliefs of a culture that values home, family, country and God. If I had to stand before a dozen terrorists who threaten my life, I'd choose a half dozen or so rednecks to back me up. Tire irons, squirrel guns and grit -- that's what rednecks are made of. I hope I am one of those. If you feel the same, pass this on to your redneck friends. Ya'll know who ya'll are.

You might be a redneck if: It never occurred to you to be offended by the phrase, 'One nation, under God.'

You might be a redneck if: You've never protested about seeing the 10 Commandments posted in public places.

You might be a redneck if: You still say ' Christmas' instead of 'Winter Festival.'

You might be a redneck if: You bow your head when someone prays.

You might be a redneck if: You stand and place your hand over your heart when they play the National Anthem.

You might be a redneck if: You treat our armed forces veterans with great respect, and always have.

You might be a redneck if: You've never burned an American flag, nor intend to.

You might be a redneck if: You know what you believe and you aren't afraid to say so, no matter who is listening.

You might be a redneck if: You respect your elders and raised your kids to do the same.

You might be a redneck if: You'd give your last dollar to a friend.

If you got this email from me, it is because I believe that you, like me, have just enough Red Neck in you to have the same beliefs as those talked about in this email.

God Bless the USA!

Keep the fire burning, redneck friend.
