*chuckles* For some reason, I don't think the blue states would be passing any flat taxes.
Definitely not. Taxes will always remain progressive in the blue states -- significantly more so one would hope.

I am a firm believer that any nonfeminist republican is to be incarcerated and sent to Mars.

Did you ever see the scene in Return of the Jedi where Luke is standing before Jabba and the floor opens up and he falls into a pit where a giant monster comes out, eats a pig-man in an instant, and then fights to the death with a Jedi and the Jedi could barely defeat it?

If Han Solo wasn't frozen in carbonite, he would have said, "I have a bad feeling about this."

No, not upset at all... Just had no previous engagement to share my ideas. :)

But, should I be scared that you even noticed? :D

I know. I was just kidding. I felt bad about the comment I made to Ayame earlier and thought I'd apologize by befriending her. :)

Oh right, like the US would break apart just because a republican got elected to the whitehouse.


"I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. . . . corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed."

It would work out better for the blue states who overall pay more in taxes than they receive.

I always find it funny that these selfish Republican welfare states actually receive more at the federal trough than they put in.

States Receiving Most in Federal Spending Per Dollar of Federal Taxes Paid:
1. D.C. ($6.17) (Blue but not really a state)
2. North Dakota ($2.03) (Red)
3. New Mexico ($1.89) (Red))
4. Mississippi ($1.84) (Red)
5. Alaska ($1.82) (Red)
6. West Virginia ($1.74) (Red)
7. Montana ($1.64) (Red)
8. Alabama ($1.61) (Red)
9. South Dakota ($1.59) (Red)
10. Arkansas ($1.53) (Red)

States Receiving Least in Federal Spending Per Dollar of Federal Taxes Paid:
1. New Jersey ($0.62) (Blue)
2. Connecticut ($0.64) (Blue)
3. New Hampshire ($0.68) (Blue)
4. Nevada ($0.73) (Red)
5. Illinois ($0.77) (Blue)
6. Minnesota ($0.77) (Blue)
7. Colorado ($0.79) (Red)
8. Massachusetts ($0.79) (Blue)
9. California ($0.81) (Blue)
10. New York ($0.81) (Blue)

I wish all these welfare Republicans would stop taking all my tax dollars!

I recently saw a compilation of polling data from Survey USA that shows Bush's approval rating, as of November of this year, is now under 45% in something like 43 states, including Texas, which is a surprise. It seems the only states that can consider them "Red States" is Idaho and Utah, while Wyoming, Mississpi, Nebraska, Alabama, and Oklahoma are purplish.

Here's a new map.

No its not. its refering to the stolen 2004 elections in which Ohio committed mass voter fraud by only providing 1 voting maching for 10000 democrats while providing 100 voting machines for every 1 republican.

Governor Taft should be in jail right now.



In the interest of fair play...



So paying crackheads for votes and committing voter fraud the good old fashioned way is fine?

As long as Mary Poppins gets out to vote, its all good.


American politics is entirely corrupt on both sides. Voting with the exception of small local votes is a joke. Presidents are all pre-determined and votes don't mean anything. Most people have that shit figued out by the time they learn the constitution in 8th grade.
