Are you a lefty redneck?
I gotta say, even though I'm a blue state elitist librul....I do appreciate and love the lefty rednecks. The Jim Hightowers, the Steve Earles, the Willie Nelsons of the world...

The men and women who drive a truck AND like to vote in favor of those who assembled it. The men and women who can work on a 67 Camaro like I work on an HP DL380... The women who feel at home in daisy dukes (well maybe I like this for other reasons.... :evilgrin:)

1. sort of...more like a commie hillbilly, really
but close enough I guess. We are few and far between (which is actually probably a very good thing).

2. Kinda like Will Rodgers, Johnny Cash or Pete Seeger?
Although Seeger was a true blue Yankee when it came right down to it...

Good company!

8. I'm a lefty redneck poser
I have an accent, like some country music, like to walk around barefoot, and like to fish. At the same time, I don't have a clue about cars (and never watch NASCAR) or sports and have never shot a gun. So I think I only qualify as a lefty redneck poser!

10. Well I'm a liburl elitist
And I grew up shooting guns (dad is a cop) and am a damn good shot.

Having said that, I don't own a gun, and don't plan to for 18 more years (now that I'm a parent.)

12. No. I'm neither one of the elite nor one of the rednecks.
I'm just...there. I fit into my surroundings well, so I suppose I look like a conservative Republican.

Except when I'm wearing a pink wig. ;)

13. I'm not but
Edited on Thu Nov-17-05 01:58 PM by Rosie1223
My husband may be....you be the judge:

He drives a pickup truck
He owns some "roach killers".
He drinks Mountain Dew.
He owns a .22 and shoots possums from our balcony. (we live in the country so no danger of neighbor injury.)
He owns a boat and has been known to fish.


Voted Democrat since 1976.
Gotta love him.
