At least MR admits that he is a MODAYA. But what amount of damage he has done to our motherland!.

Then he has all the necessary qualifications to be a country bumpkin!

This is so far the best president ever the country had.He was given the vote to defeat the LTTE he did, broke JVP in to peaces and UNP in to holes.A leader is a person who leads from front not staying in a luxury house and he sees things to him self rather listening to gossip

Someone commented about a country Bumpkin....." When Adam delved and Eve span, who was the Gentleman?????????" He shouldnt forget many things, that we were sons and daughters of conutry Baiyaas once upon a time , 2) If not for this Game Baiyaa today we would require a PASSPORT to cross Anuradhapura and still there would be Bombs in the streets of Colombo and most of us would have been 6 feet down dead...I remember we all were asking the question Isnt there anybody to take the lead and destroy this Murderer Pirbakaran??? Pirbakaran himself said there is no Sinhalaya to challenge him , we all waited for this Messiah, and finally he came like the GAMUNU Kumaraya himself a southern Gamaya...If not for this great Sinhalaya today we would have been eating grass and this country would have been in pieces....

Any average person can see clearly that this budget is a hurriedly modified one just after seeing the Uva Provincial election results.

Definition I found in the urban dictionary for country bumpkin:A person, usually from a rural area, the south or small town; who speaks or behaves in a manner that indicates a lack of understanding of the ever changing, modern world. Country bumpkins tend to speak in terms of social overtones indicative of pre-civil rights America and characteristically speak in offensive terms without knowledge of doing so. A bumpkin is more ignorant than uneducated, though most are probably uneducated. Either way, educated or not, country bumpkins are neccesarily ignorant. Country bumpkins come in every ethnicity and in both genders.
