Denver Post: You Hick Southerners Will Just Have To Do Without Your Fried Foods

I didn’t know that we here in the south were the only ones who like fried foods, did you?

The clever lads at the Denver Post apparently have some information on the subject because they’re warning us Southerners that there jist ain’t gonna be no fried foods at that there Demukratik Cunvenshun:

DENVER — Warning to Southern delegates to the 2008 Democratic National Convention in Denver this August: it will be a no-fry zone.

As part of the effort to make the August 25-28 convention the greenest ever, the Democrats’ guidelines for food catering include one that strikes at the heart of Southern cuisine: no fried food.

No fried chicken. No fried catfish. No fried green tomatoes. No fried okra. No fried anything.

Durn. And if’n that ain’t enuff, they’re tellin’ us it’s fer our own durn good:

In promoting healthy eating habits, the Democratic guidelines say every meal should be nutritious and include “at least three of the following colors: red, green, yellow, purple/blue and white.”

“It’s the new patriotism,” says Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper, the driving force behind the greening of the Democratic Convention.

Here’s a note to the folks at the Denver Post: People eat fried food everywhere. Not just in the south. You sanctimonious bunch of elitist liberal pricks. Oh, and by the way…..how about telling your liberal democratic mayor that choice is a good thing instead of ramrodding his views down everyone’s throats, even to the point of telling them what they can and can’t eat?

Anybody want to bet that the Denver Kentucky Fried Chicken outlets do a booming business during the convention?
