I saw this ad and cringed. This is why Oklahoma will continue to languish near the bottom in education, in innovation, and pretty much in all categories in which you don’t want to be a bottom dweller.
I don’t think Terry Neese will be the eventual GOP nominee in Oklahoma’s 5th Congressional race, but the fact of the matter is this is how a large slice of Oklahoma views the world in which we live.
Charles Barkley was right way back when. Oklahoma in reality never should have been awarded an NBA team. An NHL team…perhaps. And I write this despite the fact the Thunder has been a very solid success. I’m not dissing Clay Bennett. I admire the fact he and Aubrey gave this a roll.
I admire their vision and passion. I really do.
But the fact of the matter is you can’t put lipstick on a pig and make her something she’s not.
I’m not openly describing Terry Neese as a big fat ugly typical Oklahoma redneck. But I’m just making my own private observation on my little blog from Deer Creek, Oklahoma.
Three words.
GROW UP, OKLAHOMA.
