Perhaps, but it is characteristic of american conservatives to 
claim to be rednecks or hillbillies - and characteristic of 
american leftists to condemn their opponents as trailer park 
trash, rednecks, hillbillies, and sister fuckers.

Gettin' Our Scots-Irish Up
Country music reflects America's spirit.
The music that I associate with National Review is
distinctly not country-western -
it's Bach's Second Brandenburg Concerto,
used as the theme music for Bill Buckley's program Firing Line.
They may be putting on country-boy airs, but they're still elitists...
