That would put me behind enemy lines. I live in the People's Republic of the Upper West Side.

Laura Ingraham covered this on her radio show this morning. The blue counties are full of welfare recipients and other beneficiaries of government largesse.

The blue counties can't survive on their own.

What? Barely 40% of New Yorkers voted for Bush.

Lawrence O'Donnell (I believe this is the Larry that talked on McLaughlin), said the "blue states" should over the next 20 years seriously consider seceding from the union, because the red states are welfare recipients without supporting the federal government.

1)I, and many Southerners, support our succession from the union. This idiot Yankee is helping us more than we ever could have imagined.

2)Liebral Yankees forget that Southerners make up a huge proportion of the military-Kinda hard to be a world power without a military.

3)If we are only welfare recipients it is because of idiot Yankee fiscal and economic policies (Lyndon Johnson's "great society"- $3 trillion to urban areas-and they still want more). Furthermore, when you murder hundreds of thousands of southerners, burn entire cities to the ground simply to terrorized the public (Atlanta) and leave after doing a shoddy job of fixing the place, it is kinda hard for people to get back on their feet.

I seriously think that the red states should give consideration to taking over the blue states instead of succeeding. I say 25 years of saturation and they're red states too.

The numbers for federal tax dollars paid versus spent by state is listed here:

I don't have time to do it right now, but it would be interesting to see how the red state/blue state comparison would correlate with this.

Christians should be denied the right to vote but murders, rapists and other criminals should be allowed? On what planet does this appear they way to build a decent society?



Decent society is not a concept they understand. I however, am beginning to understand how England justified making Australia a prison colony. It is now more conservative even than American is, which is wonderful, so no offense to Australia. However, maybe we should send all these wackos to an island somewhere, and let them do whatever they want.

Me to Lawrence: "How much food do you think they grow in central park? How would you like to spend the next 5 years eating nothing but crackers and standing in a bread line? I'm pretty sure that we idiot red state people could arrange it."

I think they may become dangerous.

I think you are right - and I do think it's a call to assassination, pure and simple...and from the language - I think there may also be a bullseye on Rove...

He - the writer - is skating on very thin ice of inciting assassination...he well knows this can energize some kooks - of arrange to get a kook in line for a scapegoat.

These people - socialist/Communists have been attempting to get control for several elections.This was their last shot...instead, they got shot down.

and they DO recognize that they are, essentially, irrelevent for decades - unless they resort to what this man is suggesting. And don't forget, sKerry was involved, in the 70's in a group that was discussing the assassination of several senators...These ideas do take root in these twisted minds.

Their religion is self, their god is themselves and there is no morality in their code. They are the black hats - they are capable of anything.

Another theme in his diatribe is to keep up the anti-Iraq rhetoric - no matter how it hurts this country or Iraqi freedom or our troops. These people would take this country to it's knees, if it meant their gain.

Yes, Virginia, they are unpatriotic...

What worries me is not the unhinged media types, nor the mouth-frothing academics. It's the hard, hard core left that will move from their stance of verbal support of the Islamofacists, to an outright operational alliance. I sure hope the FBI is tuned in to these groups and individuals.

And those dots are getting smaller and smaller and smaller . . .

I'm a taxpayer in one of the many red counties of upstate NY (upstate being anything north of Manhattan). Our tax money flows down the Hudson straight to blue NYC.

This is now exactly 4 years old but needs to be revisited from time to time. I have no problems with secession, the sooner the better.

The only problem that I see is that the resulting "progressive nation" will soon be out of money and food and would be coming to us with demands to bail them out and send them welfare. Anyway, read this:

As a rule, but in the case of California the Central Valley went red and the southern areas went red -- they are the areas the food is grown in California (at least the one's growth hasn't taken over).

Actually, the leftists like to cite these numbers. They pretend that all the spending on military bases in red states is "spending on the state", compared to all the transit and welfare pork that goes to Blue states.

One needs to look at spending by type. Also, look by county. And even within a jurisdiction, the money may be going from "red" people to "blue" people.

Very good points. Does anyone know if there are sites that identify welfare spending by state or county?

In the 1920's my grandfather a naturalized American citizen was denied his right to vote because as a Roman Catholic he was told by Democrats that he was not a "LOYAL AMERICAN" the threat was if my grandfather tried to vote or raised a fuss the local members of the KKK would maybe pay a visit . Well WW2 comes along & of the 13 men from Primrose Nebraska that served 5 were my uncles ,after the war the Democrats tried to pull the same stunt on my grandfather that they had before the war .

Unfortunately for them all 5 of my uncles made it back & told the Rats that my grandfather WOULD be allowed to VOTE & if the Klan paid the farm a visit they would come back to town & burn the town down .

The moral of the story is this : If you try to keep ME from voting as is my right as a CITIZEN of this country I WILL KILL YOU WERE YOU STAND MR.DEMOCRAT.
