Man, I could have followed links from that one all day long. Digby's rant was delightful. When will these morons learn that if you're really interested in what "the people" say, they shouldn't be heading out to the most sparsely populated areas to talk to people. Go to California or Texas or New York or Florida. Most of the US population is urban/suburban. Heading into the countryside is just stupid if you're looking for 'average Joe'. He moved to the city a long time ago.

terrifyingly enough, though, the government that is the meat and potatoes of the beltway media believes that half, if not more, of the population resembles these folks.

yes, i'm bitter. i was no less bitter when i lived in the sticks, because then i -knew- i was surrounded by morons.

I'm trying to figure out what (else) was wrong with your schnoz that you didn't need to evac the tent along with your ill-fated buddy.

just immune to my own :) now if *i'd* noticed, they'd have had to implement MOPP4 *smirk*

giving mighty_man asparagus is a violation of the geneva convention for the same reason.

sounds like a party theme ;) maybe they'll have something like it at C13?

The majority of the population hasn't lived in rural areas since before WWII!!!! A quick glance at the census data shows that 80% of the population lives in metropolitan areas (granted, some of those are smaller than one might think, but not nearly the wide spots in the road they often show us). As for geographical distribution...

Northeast 19%
Midwest 23%
South 36%
West 22%

Kinda interesting, doncha think?

Speaking of the media, government, blogs etc. Do you ever listen to On The Media? They have it on public radio hear. Very enlightening.
