Excellent SOUNDOFF in local paper
The Gulfport MS Sun-Herald has a "soundoff" section where one can post a letter anonymously. One yesterday ragged on those who didn't think there was global warming and still believed Iraq had WMD. It concluded with:

TODAY YOU HAVE TO BE SOME KIND OF REPUBLICAN, BUSH ADMINISTRATION, LIMBAUGH DITTO-HEAD TROGLODYTE WITH YOUR HEAD IN THE SAND TO STILL BE DENYING IT. WAKE UP PEOPLE. CORPORATE AND RIGHT WING PROPAGANDA IS CAUSING BRAIN DAMAGE.

I'm looking forward to responses since a large group of who he describes populates this part of the country.

1. Responses?
Folks would have to know what "troglodyte" means, and I'm guessing that not too many of them know how to work a dictionary.

2. I visited a friend in Mississippi a couple of years ago and kidded her
about the signs on the highway "It is against the law to throw trash on the highway", figuring that in Mississippi they don't understand big words like "littering"

3. If you saw the sides of the road
throughout the state it might seem that they can't read at all. Its atrocious the amount of trash people just chuck out of their cars. Ignorant trash indeed.
