First, you can find passionate political zealots on both sides of the political aisle. If Pelosi did a documentary on DU, she could easily find a fruitcake or two.
Second, in any society you will find people who are close-minded and resistant to change. You can find rednecks in France, Italy, and even the Scandinavian nations if you look for them.
Third, it struck me how self-centered these people are. Comments like "we're the real America", or "we're the people who keep this country moving". Like the people in NY or SF are just layabouts who live on welfare. Also, they may be religious, but they're not spiritual. A spiritual person cares about the well being of others not themselves. They seem to be religious only because they want to go to heaven and receive their big reward. Screw every body else.
Finally, my inner Eric Cartman kept leaping out of me. Every time I saw one of them cry, I was reminded of the "Scott Tenorman Must Die" episode of South Park, when Cartman made Scott eat his parents and started licking Scott's tears. The tears of unfathonmable sadness.
