I certainly hope Doug was kidding about red necks. I left the S*** hole od So Ca. This is also in the works. It's about control, nothing more. And that Idiot Booker and Kirsten Gillibrand. Always the idiots from the Left and Right coast.
I think that you guys are worrying too much over the antics of a freshman Congresswoman. Reality will set in on what she has power or influence to do.
Believe it or not but Political Science was my thing, back in the day. What was suggested to me is that countries are governed from the middle, not the left or the right, so we really need each other to keep things together.
In my circles, I/we were always considered liberals. The reason being we always felt, give the "varmit" a fair trial, then string him up. Others said, why waste the time, just string 'em up now?
I consider myself somewhere in the middle and consider that I have friends on both ends of the extremes. They may not consider me friends but I just consider that the liqueur talking. However even if you consider me a flaming liberal, just let me say, what makes you think liberals don't have guns and can't shoot? That could be a major mistake?
As far as a lot of crap coming from the coasts there could be case made for that. Consider the 57th street BS artist in the White House now?
In NY we have an expression. You can't BS a BS artist. We get it. Don't you?
