In Defense of Dixie.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Yes. Contrary to popular belief, "rednecks" are capable of independent thought. I know of several who display an intense distaste for cronyism, Jesus-ism, and many other unpopular -isms associated with the South.

They just do it with a drawl.

Thanks for posting that. I grew up down a dirt road in rural Georgia, and I love hearing Southern voices expressing intelligent thoughts.

Hahah, that guy really has got the accent down good. I like the idea of pretending to be an indignant, educated redneck. Good one.

I am a Boston born Yankee living in the rural south. There is no way I am ever moving back up north where all them northern rednecks are. They tip over school buses full of black children in Boston. Down here I see a lot of inter- racial dating going on. The food is better too. Except for the Italian food. We need a Little Italy on the Tenn-Tucky border.
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!

Yep...the Southern drawl. Gawd, I love it!

Mine's not particularly heavy, being from a border state; at least, I don't think it is. I've had many a folk from up North tell me otherwise. At any rate, I love a strong one. Almost got hypnotized into going out with a fella from Louisiana a few years back, as a direct result of him laying that damn drawl on me...so mesmerizing.

It was ridiculous.

The spell was broken, when he casually let it slip that he was here due to an arrest warrant being issued in his home state. Dodgy

Years of travel have taken my drawl, but there's enough Texanisms in my speech that folks can hear I'm a little bent. I'm told I have a little accent, but I don't hear it, of course.
