And BTW jimmy, just because you haven't caught anyone red handed, doesn't mean that shit isn't going on. One in ten jimmyboy, one in ten. Perhaps you should check the stables after everyone else goes to bed. You'll probably be surprised what some of the grand kiddies get up to when they think your passed out from your fifth bourbon of the night.

You have to have a simple message for the rubes. He is going with what he knows has worked for him -- God, guns and gays. Believe me, I lived there for 30 years.
