They're not immature just smart, and since tonight's race has been postponed until Tuesday due to weather, the gives them even less time to prepare for the final race before the Chase field is set, and even less of a reason to go to DC for a pointless photo op.

Throwing around "black" stereotypes is all that many C-Ders do, however I never see you complaining about that. The fact remains that the NASCAR crowd is not the most racially inclusive bunch of folks and tend to be very trailer parkish.

You rightfully complain about bigots, yet make biggoted comments about white Nascar fans. Your credibility is shot.

Have you ever priced even halfway decent tickets at a Cup race? Not even remotely within the grasp of trailer park residents.

One of the greatest things about being an American is that we have the freedom to say no to anyone, including the President.

I'd hate to think we should find it acceptable to denigrate people because they are "trailer parkish". If there are individuals in trailer parks and/or NASCAR races who are jerks, bigots, social misfits, ok, insult them. But to demean thousands (millions?) of people based on their entertainment preferences or the living conditions that their economic means dictate, to me is contrary to the idea that we should look out for the working class and practice fairness in dealing with diverse groups of people in our society.

Entertainment preferences are a window to the mind, man.
