71. I grew up in Appalachian Ohio and I think you are right!
But the problem is not just that the urban and coastal dwellers make fun of the country and mountain dwellers. People in the south and in Appalachia make terrible comments about California and New York. The problem is that our country is geographically and culturally diverse, and the Republicans have used that as a wedge to drive us apart.
What kinds of comments do chimpy and his family make about southerners, Appalachians, and country-folk? Do you think that this preppy northeastern family sits around saying nice things about us? No way.
They're just better at lying about it than the Democrats.
