Mullets are the Devil. A curse put upon this land in the 1980's, and somehow managed to survive thanks to cheap Tennessee whiskey and Dukes of Hazzard fans below the Mason-Dixon line who don't realize Reagan's out of office.
These people are bass-ackwards enough to need a Sally Strothers-level celebrity to make someone "think of the children" and save the poor progeny of such a genetically-redundant breed of people.
These are the same people who think that a permanent residence means taking the wheels of their houses. These are people that keep Toby Keith in a job. These are people who took something great (Irish Folk music, look it up and find out yourself) and bastardized it to sing about exes living in Texas and racist themes of going after an entire race of people because roughly twenty of them committed a very heinous act (I'm all for battling terrorism, but "putting a boot in the ass" of all Muslims is not the way to go about it; neither is calling it a "crusade").
These are people you'd find in any remake of Deliverance.
The very epitome of "White Trash".
And our current President is just a "Party in the back" away from exemplifying it all.

When referring to secreataries, namely Lincoln's, he had a desk secretary (not a cabinet secretary) named Kennedy. Just to point that out. I mentioned nothing of conspiracy theories or predictions. I don't know where in the hell you got that idea from. Nobody but you brought any of that up. It is indeed a spooky coincidence (because that's what it was, a coincidence) that the two presidents had secretaries with the last names of the other president.
I'm sure you're well-informed in your argument here; I'm not trying to say otherwise. I was only pointing out a fallacy that another reviewer had stated.

Uh, yeah.. Lincoln was shot in Ford's Theater. You're thinking of their secretaries. Kennedy's was named Lincoln; Lincoln's was named Kennedy. If you're going to reference spooky coincidences at least get it right. Fucking dumbass.
----------------------------------------
This is one of those coincidences that isn't a coincidence at all -- it's simply wrong. John Kennedy did have a secretary named Evelyn Lincoln (who may or may not have warned him about going to Dallas), but one searches in vain to find a Lincoln secretary named Kennedy. (Lincoln's White House secretaries were John G. Nicolay and John Hay.)
The more important point is that since Presidents are frequent recipients of assassination threats, they rarely make any public appearances without somebody's warning them of potential danger. Only on the extemely rare occasions when a tragedy actually occurs do we later take note of the warnings; in all other cases the failed "prophecies" are quickly forgotten. (Lincoln received "an unusual number of letters about plots to kidnap or assassinate him," said to have numbered at least eighty, yet none of those plots were enacted.) Nor does anyone think to mention other attempts at kidnap or assassination that were not preceded by any recorded warnings to the victims. (Lincoln was shot at on at least one other occasion.)
Yes, Lincoln was warned not to go to Ford's Theatre by persons concerned for his safety, just as he had been warned not to visit Richmond a week earlier, and just as he had been warned not to attend his own inauguration in 1861. Obviously, only one of the myriad of warnings he received throughout his four years in office was on the mark. Likewise, Kennedy was warned not to visit San Antonio the day before his trip to Dallas (and undoubtedly before a host of other appearances as well), but only the last warning he allegedly received is considered significant, because it coincidentally happened to come true. As Jeane Dixon and other "psychics" have demonstrated, if you make enough predictions, one of them is eventually bound to come true -- just as a stopped clock is also right twice a day.

+2 for your demeaning riposte.
We used to mix sinsemilla into our history professor's can of pipe tobacco. Karma is a bitch. With a mullet.

Lincoln was shot in a theater called Kennedy. Kennedy was shot in a car called a Lincoln.
If you shot yourself today, in a year you,like this post, will be stinkin'.

This post contained a few things -
Jokes about trailers and country music that are so worn out, even my grandmother thinks you are lame.
Nothing new...nothing funny.

Do not reference me in any of your posts. Else you will end up with business up front, CIA assassinations at back.
