Cindy Adams' column disses Repug convention-goers – but good!
August 29, 2004 -- BOARD up Wendy's, Denny's and Arby's. Get off the streets. The dele gates are coming.

What hasn't been mentioned is the many tactical problems associated with them coming here. For instance, airlines don't know if a spittoon is considered carry-on. Another thing, not all of our hotels are goat-friendly. And our restaurants have a dress code: no overalls. Our stores are shutting down because they know (A) that even the Religious Right realizes J.C. can also mean Penney. And (B) these people won't buy fall wardrobe made of real wool. They have to protect their family members. And (C) our cops are confused. They don't know if chewing tobacco is against the law.

Aliens from far-off galaxies like Louisiana and Utah are invading us.

(snip)

We're talking foreign folk to whom gravy is a main dish. They will jam our restaurants. Not places like Le Cirque because, to them, international cuisine means french fries. Maybe Greek salad.

2. It's attitudes like this that make folks vote conservative.
She's just one of those snooty NY elitiests who think the world revolves around her city.

Political ideology aside, folks who eat potatoes & gravy as a main dish are a majority of Americans. Don't piss them off.
