I could never understand the Democrat meme that Republicans are a bunch of idiot hicks, but at the same time we are the corporate CEOs and millionaires who enjoy all the tax breaks.

Just when I was getting used to being called a slack-jawed yokel.

Republicans are good neighbors and smart people. No surprise there that they would create a desirable town to live in.

Republicans should stop sending their kids to colleges where 90% or more of the faculty are leftist donkeys. If you are a graduate of same, stop sending donations. Forget about complaining to the dean or president of the university. They have small, closed minds.

Around my general neck of the woods the property values and SAT scores are lower in Maxine Water's district, than in Dana Rahrbacher's.

Bringing it even closer to home, the property values and SAT scores are lower in Lorreta Sanchez' district, than in Dana Rohrabacher's.

Cruisin' for drugs isn't a problem in owner occupied, single family neighborhoods. It is in dense, apartment rental discticts.

Etc. Education correlates to income correlates to crime correlates to out of wedlock births correlates to school dropouts correlates to prison, and around and around.

Read "The Bell Curve" all the way to the end.

A person hoping to "lift" himself/herself up might first move to an area where people have what they want.

Rub shoulders with people you want to be like. Find out what they did, to get where they got.

Then go do what they did.

Do the do, to get the get.

I was an SAT National Merit Scholar, and scored 99% composite percentile on my GRE....and am a Republican Party precinct captain. Our county party chairman is a math and physics teacher. A fellow that worked the tables for me ALL DAY LONG at the general election this year is a physicist with a subcontractor to a major defense contractor.

I went to a Cowboy Action Shooting match today over at the Saint Charles Sportsman's Club. (These people are Red-Staters to the core...........). I shot with doctors, lawyers, architects....one fellow was a college professor lecturing on Elizabethan English and Old English.....I would guess that the median family income of the folks there was at least twice the national average. And guess what? NONE of us was born into privelege.

I'm a country boy from rural Kentucky (not much different than Corporal Blake Miller, who has had a lot of exposure here lately). The Maryland friends I have grew up working hard in New Carrolton or Dundalk or Edgewater (you Maryland folks will understand what I mean here).

The point of this ramble is this: The Democrats have no clue about what they are fighting...........the tide of History favors the Brave and the Prepared.

I was pessimistic for a long time, but I am becoming optimitsic. The future is ours. :>)
