Kathleen Parker (briefly) on the term "Redneck"
On Wednesday, two of our three sections slipped into interesting discussions of the term "redneck." Serendipitously, today's column from Kathleen Parker delved into the use of this very word in the campaign. A little context: Parker lives in Camden, SC, and she is a conservative commentator for the Washington Post and the National Review.

My poster project helped the discussion about "rednecks" so I thought I'd leave a comment to give readers some more info.
The quote I used:
"It is now politically incorrect for anyone except Rednecks to use the "R" word.
We discussed the seriousness of this statement even though it also has a humorous tone. Also, we touched on the parallel between this and "the n word"
