Above, Tom Keogh claims that Larry's "rube" character is the "real" punchline to Larry's un-PC zingers (Somehow implying that Larry the Cable Guy is in reality and liberal New Englander or something just making fun of rednecks).
These two liberals would write some of the most racist jokes ever aired on TV (laughing it up in the writer's room, no doubt), and then deflect any criticism by claiming that it is not racist because their main character, (the one mouthing the words they gleefully wrote,) is portrayed as being less than bright.
Larry's humor is what it is, and not what you want it to be or wish it was.
