I happened to be flipping through the channel's tonight and came across a NASCAR story on Lou Dobbs show (on CNN). Anyway apparently the U.S. Congress put out a memo of some type suggesting that aides and other government officials going to the upcoming NASCAR race at Charlotte to get all their immunizations. Now Dobbs and a Republican congressman (from NC of course) took this as prejudice. Of course the Democrat they had on defended the memo saying "it was meant for any large event, in case of an attack." Now I'm not attacking Democrats (I'm an independant and actually lean towards that party). That's neither here nor there though. I'm sick and tired of the general attitude by most non-NASCAR fans that we're all a bunch of beer-swilling, toothless rednecks. I don't mind the biggest idea that I get from people that it's just "cars turning left for hours." They just don't get it and that's fine. But when people down-grade everyone that watches a sport (the #2 sport in the U.S.) it just kind of rubs me wrong I guess. Does anyone else have an opinion on this? I'm curious what you guys think.
