Even the Little Things Offend Me


This image has bothered me for a long time. To me, It shows that the GOP will lie right down to the cellular level in order to dupe people to join the minions.

Couple that with Mr. Mehlmen's blatant lie in his latest GOP e-mail and you have one pissed off Democrat!

<snip>

RNC's False Email
Mehlman claims,"Before Ms. Miers was even announced many Democrat groups said they would oppose her." Actually, none did.

The rest here:

What little things bother you?

2. Can someone please post the purple US map & the proportional blue/red map?
You know what bothers me? When the RWers use an noun, "Democrat" as an adjective when they should use "Democratic." It's a RW slur. I hate it. I really hate it. Even Randi Rhodes slips and uses the terms in the wrong way.
:grr:
As far as the map is concerned, it is misleading. The proportional map shows that the blue population/areas are much larger than the red areas. For instance, more US citizens are represented by Democratic senators than Republican senators.

12. It's my filly's sire, Coromino, at his Stallion Approval in Germany.

He (and she) are Oldenburgs. I just got a digital camera and I need to replace his picture with hers. She looks very much like dad except she's not (yet) 17 hands tall! Cotton is a good girl. Do you have horses?

5. Yep, much of the red area is sparsely populated land.
Looking at the small patch of blue in Southern California, it seemingly pales in comparison to the giant red space of Montana.

Of course, Southern California has over 10 million people and Montana has 1 million, tops. It's all about density.

9. That's a population map.

The bluer areas have people, the redder areas are empty.

10. Remember, too...
that sometimes the barest of majority, like 2-8 percentage points, decided red over blue.

I suggest you get an old one from a Clinton victory; that is, to me, nearer to the mindset of the country.

The post 911 era was a burp in this country's digestive tract. Or maybe a fart. However, we are rapidly taking Tums and feeling much better, thank you.
