So, since you live in Florida, that means that all of Florida is Democrat?
I live in Texas. Bush won Texas 64% to Kerry's 36%. Yet about 2/3 of the people I know voted for Kerry. By your logic they are not Democrat, because I live in Texas and know how Texans think and the state is Republican. Period.
Give me a break. Instead of bitching about the '04 election, why don't you people go off in a corner and start your "Hillary '08" posters?
I'm sure than rampant denial of reality ranks a little higher, there, dude.
I only jumped into this because you insinuated that I, my wife, my family, and my friends were less inteligent, less informed of world events, and just plain less than you. I took offense to that and pointed out that for every leftist ideal you throw at me, I will counter with a right. A right hook, perhaps...
I don't have to quantify or qualify anything regarding this election, but I thought that before you continue to waste you meager mental aptitudes on arguing with me, you should know that on my ballot, I voted for two Republicans, three Democrats, a Libertarian and an Independant. I researched the candidates, I made my decisions, and voted my heart and mind.
Oh, and if you wish to insinuate "Evangelical Right", as other bitter Liberals have attempted, I'm pagan. Not a Christian. Pagan. Un-Christian, if you will. But religion is not the thing. Faith is the thing. Bush has faith. Kerry has religion.
So as they say 'round here: "It was a choice between a farmer's daughter and sheep in heat. Both get the job done, but one tell you how good it is..."
Why can't the rest of the world realize that the majority of U.S. citizens simply don't fucking care what they think?
We. Don't. Care.
Don't care, don't care, don't care.
This is us not caring.
Look:| See how much I care:|
We don't care and we won't care.
If we cared what the rest of the world thought, we would have elected a guy that would kiss the worlds ass. We decided instead to elect the guy that will KICK THE WORLDS ASS!
In the immortal words of Howard Dean: YEEEEAAAAHH!
Urban concentration of liberals is due to co-dependance on others who think the same way. It gets to the point where no moderate or conservative ideas or thinkers are allowed to exist within that concentration. Your ideas are no longer your own, then, as you have become part of a veritable hive of leftist - near-socialist - yes people for the Democratic Party. Since you are no longer able to concieve any other point of view than that of the hive, then all other opinions must be wrong, right?
What was the quote in '72? Nixon was pulling ahead significanlty, and someone said that it must be false because "no one I know voted for him".
And just so you know: Yes, people in rural areas do read non-fiction. Unfortunately, none of the books you listed fall into that category. I wouldn't be the only one to take a Cotton Gin repair manual over that tripe any day of the week...
The less educated have stayed behind. Those who live in rural counties are less likely to read, and therefore are not well-informed.
According to your logic, I would be considered legally retarded for moving from an urban area (Arlington, Tx - pop 500K) to a rural area (Palmer, Tx - pop 2K) than the people who already lived in Palmer.
I wonder why I am less intelligent for moving to an area where I get three times the land and twice the house for half the money? I pay less in property taxes, I have an actual affect on the way my town is run. I save money on gas as I am getting better gas mileage even though I drive a little further. I also have less stress as a result of the beautiful environment and laid-back lifestyle of rural living, making me a more productive citizen and worker, making my company more money and stimulating the economy.
The myth that us rednecks is just too dumb to know bettah is just that... a myth. Just like the myth that all college professors are liberal commie tree-huggers. And the myth that all African-Americans are Democrat. And the myth that all Christians are Republicans.
