I'm getting something totally different from that map BK. It appears that the more you isolate yourself from your fellow men the more ignorant you become. Now what I'd REALLY like to see is the correlation between that map and the map that shows which counties have a majority of the population that believes Saddam Hussein was responsible for 9/11.



Good lord, Joe....now you're equating rural and exurban life with IGNORANCE to explain the majority vote for Dubya? You just perfrectly illustrated bien pensant attitude and the sense of superiority that the liberal mindset seems to inculcate in its followers.

Instead of looking for ways to peel away these voters, the Dems, and liberals by extension, seem willing to ascribe their vote to IGNORANCE and STUPIDITY, and "everything will just be okay if we explain ONCE AGAIN why its all right to hold liberal thinking above all others".

Poor, poor pitiful me, with all of my college education and experience in the world at large. I must be congenitally mentally disabled, as I just don't seem to be able to buy off on the policies propounded by the Northeastern liberal mindset ;-)

THAT'S why the Democratic Party is running itself right down into the ground and into irrelevance.

BK;

Here's a new one for you:

PTED: Post Tramatic Election Disorder

I wish I would have bought stock in Glaxo or Pfizer before the election. :-)

Cheers!

Heh, heh.....I read that one. I wonder how these people are going to handle something truly catastrophic in their lives.

Western democracies, and the citizens who live in them, definitely have way too much time on their hands.

For those who feel this country should be a democracy rather than a representative republic, this map pretty much shows why it shouldn't.

BK, you said the exact same thing I did, except the other way around, and I thought I was making that clear enough for you to notice. I'm not the greatest writer. You suggested financially secure people moved away and "evolved" into red people. Certainly you are aware what evolution implies? Onward movement; progress or the like. I was just combatting your retarded assertion with my own that was equally retarded.

Why do you continue to categorize people, like me for instance, as "Democrats" or "Liberals". My good man, the only category you can classify me as is HC, hors categorie thank you very much. ;)

I'm loosely equating ignorance in this discussion to describe those who are willing to follow a man of darkness who cloaks himself in the light of Christ.

Yes, I must say though you got one thing right here. It is pitiful to see you continually speak with pride about your college indoctrination and experience in the world at large through the military prism.

(I hope you realize I'm just playing with you here. Don't take it personal, just strike back!, I have a big smile on my face and no truly malicious intent. The Lavender Room seems to be a place where it's OK to give each other a hard time and then go have a beer afterwards. I'll be in Hawaii from 12-27-04 to 1-03-05, and am staying right off the IM bike course. I forget what the place is called, but if you live around there we should meet up and go for a ride and afterwards I'll let you buy me a beer.)

man, I can't believe what you just wrote...
(sarcasm on) that's gotta to be the most incisive, well thought, most accurate comment we have read here (sarcasm off)
