Rowdy,
I understand your reaction, and I too found the "blue collar" reference offensive - however ...... take a step back and look at this from the standpoint of Sun Tsu, "the 10 principles of war" etc. It was a deliberate insult to inflame you. Make no mistake about that.
This is nothing more than warfare cloaked in more civilised garb..........

PS ... I love the "KGB TV" reference ......
