Have you seen this:

Mr. B is an Okie and I spent a chunk of my childhood there but this is a bit bizarre even by Oklahoma standards.
Here are a couple of pages just to get you started:
Do you think this guy will win?
Kin ah have muh own gay boy scout troop?
hell set... how 'bout we throw in a couple o' altar boys as well?
We used to have to learn that Latin **** . . .
Nominus Dominus, things is lookin' ominous ! ! !
With family there and being familiar with the attitudes in their general vacinity... Yeah, I can see homophobia being a big campaign issue.
I think that there woman with the bouffant hair wants ta suck that city council boy's weenie . . .
which is probably how they still refer to a penis....
I have family and friends there. I usually get to Oklahoma every comple of years for a visit. I like Oklahoma.
Even the Bible beating, God fearing faction of my family wouldn't fall for this hillbilly bullshit.
I think it's crazy the way "good ole' boy" has been translated into "liberal".

That's the crux of the biscuit . . . and, of course, the source of the hilarity . . .
do you think the misspelling is on purpose? i mean, it takes awhile to draw a cartoon, one would think it takes long enough to make it worthwhile to check how pedophile is actually spelled.
Yes, the multiple misspellings are quite deliberate.
Well...
One the two pages I posted there is "pedaphiles" and "pedifiles". I don't want to go look at the whole thing again but I suspect there are a few more spelling errors.
Uhm . . . Boom . . . Chai was indulging some ironic humor there . . .
Damn!
Everything is flying right over my head these days.
<grumble>

You ain't turnin' into no conservative, is you?
Could be. That comic was pretty persway... pershua.... convincing.
Or it could just be the paint fumes.
We used to know a couple of old painters who had spent too many years with a sprayer and lacquer thinner. One Friday, as we were driving through Raleigh on the way home, they passed us on the expressway in their van, and the backdoors were flapping open, with partially full cans of paint falling out onto the highway from time to time. They were suckin' down brews, and throwin' the empties into the back of the van--it wasn't like they needed the beer, though, at the end of a week of sparyin' . . .
Geez, is everybody in Raleigh now!!!! We visit about once a year, my husband's Aunt turned 90 in March and she told us we need to ramp up the visits cause time's running short. I'm guess we will be driving thru sometime in September (after we get the loan approved for the gas). We will be bringing Sophie on her first big girl dog trip, so I'm passing out warnings now to prevent anyone from getting licked to death..or near death.
My Mom was an Okie. She grew up in Muskogee. Once, my youngest half brother returned from a visit to that state. Before a room full of people he began ranting about "everyone in the state is stupid." I stepped in to remind him of his mother's heritage and for good measure pointed out he was half Okie himself. It didn't wise him up one whit, but he did shut his mouth for once.
