We have enjoyed the redneck jokes for years. It's time to take a reflective look at the core beliefs of a culture that values home, family, country and God. If I had to stand before a dozen terrorists who threaten my life, I'd choose a half dozen or so rednecks to back me up. Tire irons, squirrel guns and grit -- that's what rednecks are made of.  I hope I am one of those. 

You might be a redneck if: It never occurred to you to be offended by the phrase, 'One nation, under God.'

You might be a redneck if: You've never protested about seeing the 10 Commandments posted in public places.

You might be a redneck if: You still say ' Christmas' instead of 'Winter Festival.'

You might be a redneck if: 
You bow your head when someone prays.

You might be a redneck if: 
You stand and place your hand over your heart when they play the National Anthem.

You might be a redneck if: You treat our armed forces veterans with great respect, and always have.

You might be a redneck if: 
You've never burned an American flag, nor intend to.

You might be a redneck if: 
You know what you believe and you aren't afraid to say so, no matter who is listening.

You might be a redneck if: 
You respect your elders and raised your kids to do the same.

You might be a redneck if: 
You'd give your last dollar to a friend.
