[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are definitely blue collar men. My FIL is the classic ignorant, bigoted, bitter blue collar white man that forms the backbone of the republican party. Due to his lack of education, he is unworldly, too stupid to know he is stupid, and believes all sorts of racist canards. I have met many cops, firefighters, plumbers etc like him. It is not very often that I meet white collar professionals who are so unintelligent and backwards.[/quote]

Then you haven't met my dad's extended family.  They have college degrees and office jobs and repeat the same dumb Fox News crap.  [b]I've actually met plenty of white-collar people who are ignorant and bigoted.  Working in an office doesn't make you intelligent or thoughtful.[/b]  [/quote]

Now THAT is an understatement.  I have actually found plenty of Democrats in my white collar world of law & finance, but usually in the associate ranks.  They leave to take up less demanding jobs in-house or in government, where they have more time to catch up on the Huffington Post and the Daily Kos.  These are the same [i]Obama pajama-boys[/i] that watched Jon Stewart and now don't know who is supposed to tell them what to think.  Sad really, but they tend to have fewer children so in the long run things should work out fine. [/quote]
