Political Discussion

The following is a couple of exchanges over an email I sent out Friday. The subject was "Interesting", attached was this map: www.selekta.com/map.jpg

M,

Ah, you've found us out. Yes it's true, we are trying to enslave those liberals that want to push our country towards an ever tightening noose of Socialism (and according to the polisters immorality). They failed this term, but we will endeavor to keep an ever watching eye on their future attempts. I'd appreciate any warnings you could possible supply as to any future movement of those liberals. Your obvious "finger - on - the - pulse" alertness is valuable if we are to stay the course.

Dude, sorry your candidate didn't achieve his mark. "Keep the faith". In four more years you'll have the opportunity to put Hillary in the White House. If she is anything like her husband our economy will jump to attention and she'll be giving head to the newest intern. Maybe it's time to sign up for an internship again?

Still plenty to give Thanks for all across America. World governments and Countries have shown us throughout history that nothing is easy when it comes to providing for the masses, but we in the US have it all over any where else. Have a great Thanksgiving and drop us a line when you're in TX next time.

Rock-On,

D

Hey D-

I had a similar discussion about this map with a good friend of mine who feels the same way about the Democratic movement. I do respect that point of view, and do not claim the Dem's are anywhere near perfect. However, the point I was making by sending this map is very simple:

"It is very interesting that the same states who supported slavery before the Civil War are the same states who voted for Bush. And the demographic of those states who supported slave freedom is uncanny to the current states who voted for Kerry"

Can you disagree with that point?

My friend tried to- he went on the defensive and started ranting about the left driving this country into the ground.. and the pro-slave states were democratic, and anti-slave state were republican.. blah blah blah...
He is very educated and I respect his opinions, but Im just making a simple point. One that cannot be spun.
(Right after that a crackhead knocked on my door, burst into my apartment and took off all of her clothes. We kicked her out, stopped her three times from jumping in traffic, the had her arrested.. Viva la Hollywood.)

Im sure the people in the mid-nineteenth century South had compareble terms to "liberal faggot" and "pansy socialist", but who turned out the social victor?

Banning gay marriage, banning abortion, giving tax cuts to the wealthiest people in America then announcing the day after his re-election that the White House is out of money is not my idea of a good president.

I am not an expert in politics and try to stay as educated and objective as I can. But I believe after four more years of this shit, the US is going to need a woman president. It will be hard to win against Arnold after the 'born on foreign soil' rule is changed, but hopefully the majority of America will wake up by then.

Ill be in town for Christmas, I'll definitely drop you a line.
