How many people even realize that the red states pay far less in federal taxes of all kinds than they receive in transfer payments like Social Security and Medicare and federal spending on roads, airports, military installations, and payments to private companies with government contracts?
The fucking red states are taking our money and forcing their right-wing Senators, Congressmen, and asshole president on the blue states. I'm sick of subsidizing the greedy, ignorant, inbred, illiterate, hillbillies of Red America. FUCK 'EM ALL!!!!!

1. I like that term "Red America" |
|
It sounds Communist. Also, red means danger.

They are still Americans. You may not agree with how they vote, or how they think, but at least show them the respect you would like them to show you.

4. But what does that mean anymore? |

I don't care if they are Americans, they are dangerous killers in my book.

6. The same CONTEMPT they show us, you mean. |

"One nation indivisible" is a MYTH. I have more in common socially, politically, and culturally with the average CANADIAN than I do with the typical neanderthals found in Tennessee and Kansas, and those other godforsaken places where teaching evolution is considered an attack on religion. Fuck 'em. Fuck 'em all.

almost EXACTLY what I said to several people today. People voted for a Republican House and Senate and President. Well, okay then enact their agenda IN FULL and DO IT NOW. Let people live with the consequences.
Love this one:
"Medicare? You get a set amount of cash. Once you exhaust that, f***ing die already." Yup. That's the Tom DeLay Medicare plan!
Oh, and I wish people would stop posting "Soldier killed in Iraq today, number 1,111" or whatever. This was a COMPLETELY OPTIONAL WAR. The public supports it. They want it. Let them live (and die) with it. I do not fucking care at all.

to carry on this human race...the world will be a better place for
decent folks like you.
from the words of Ken Lambert, a southern songwriter.
