Tourette's Syndrome can be treatable, you know. And remember to thank him for driving a few more squishy moderate Dems right on over to the Reps for the '06 elections. Great.

Hmm.. Very uninformed and not really that clever.

I liked it. I'd like to hear a rant from the other side too. As a Midwesterner who had to live for several years in the South, I can appreciate complaints against them. War of Northern Aggression my ass. ;-)

(insert pithy phrase here...)

I'm just disappointed that this seems to be the prevailing opinion from those who aren't entirely enamored of Bush or the election results. Knee-jerk reactionary screeds such as this one are common on both sides, from what I can see.

But, really.....I don't remember this level of discourse when Clinton only got 43 percent of the popular vote against Bush 41 (he got about 37%) and Ross Perot (about 18%), back in '92, when it was widely acknowledged that Perot took most of the Bush-leaning voters away. I didn't see herds of Young Republicans tearing up their country club membership cards and making reservations (First Class, by the way) for an extended exile crusie on the Queen Mary, or something ;-)

And isn't it really amazing how the supposed "blue blood" Republican Party has managed to transform itself into the party of rednecks, yokels, inbreeds and morons in the space of a generation? Didn't that used to be the Dems niche? ;-))

Where did the Continental Navy get the oak to build their ships, cotton and flax to make their sails, pitch to chink their hulls, and tobacco to chew?

Other factoids: 1/2/1788, Georgia ratifies the Constitution. 5/23/1788, South Carolina ratifies the Constitution. 6/25/1788, Virginia ratifies the Constitution. 11/25/1788, South Carolina is the first state to select representatives for the U.S. Congress. 2/4/1789, Presidential electors select George Washingto (Virginian) as the first President. 6/7/1789, James Madison (Virginian) introduces proposed Bill of Rights in the House of Representatives. 12/15/1791, Virginia ratifies the Bill of Rights.

Need I go on?

Go ahead and say something @#$%^& about this founding father form the south .From the Monticello website

Thomas Jefferson -- author of the Declaration of Independence and the Statute of Virginia for Religious Freedom, third president of the United States, and founder of the University of Virginia -- voiced the aspirations of a new America as no other individual of his era. As public official, historian, philosopher, and plantation owner, he served his country for over five decades.

I was thinking the same thing.

Really .. when looking at the electoral by county ... if it really is "one area vs. another area", it's "Big Cities Vs. The Rest of the country". I live close enough to Chicago to know that it is not all that uncommon to have people from the city view their opinion as being more worthy. Heck, they live in "The City", how could it not be? =)
