Republicans Can Learn Something from a State Where Obama Lost ALL 77 COUNTIES...

In the recent presidential election, Barack Obama lost every single county in Oklahoma (Utah and West Virginia, too)... 
what do they know that we don't?

Well, early in Obama's first term Oklahoma passed a state law to incarcerate all illegal immigrants. Oklahoma House Bill 1804 was passed against the advice of the Federal Government and ACLU, they said it would be 'a mistake'. Naturally, the number of illegals in the state plummeted ever since...

The state also passed a law -SB 1102- to include DNA samples from any and all illegals to the Oklahoma database for criminal investigative purposes. Nancy Pelosi said it was 'unconstitutional', but the good people of Oklahoma
could give a rat's ass what she purports to think.

The straight-up standing legislature also declared Oklahoma a sovereign state, and thereby not subservient to Federal Government directives/mandates.

The Obama Administration is clearly no friend of the 2nd Amendment, and has made bold steps towards taking-away our guns. Yet in 2009, Oklahoma passed a law confirming people in the state have the right to bear arms and transport them in their vehicles. 

Also that year OK lawmakers passed a bill that demands ALL driver's license exams will be printed in English -and only English- no other language. They have been called 'racist' for doing this, but the fact is that ALL of the road signs are in English only... duh

My kinda people out there in Oklahoma...

It would be interesting to see what the genesis of blue/democrat, blue/republican was. It probably is no coincidence, as the connection between red/communism is obvious.

This is the first time I’ve brought it up.

If the majority of people in OK are not in favor of being reliant on the Federal government they have the voting power to put in politicians that will refuse the extra federal money . . . but they don’t.

Anecdote time: Years ago when I lived in NH we had a pretty bad week of snow. People kept urging the town council to request government funds to help clean it up. Our town council basically said, “It’s NH, it snows. We can handle it ourselves.” So it is possible for politicians to turn down federal aid.

No state can interfere with federal welfare payments. The fed money flows despite of how the people of OK feel about it.

If federal welfare payments are the drivers then maybe it needs to be asked why are so many people needing welfare in conservative states?

[winodog]

I have. That’s real strange

I feel better now seeing that I live in the one red patch in CT.

I know exactly when it was. Election Night 2000. But the Stupid Party being what it is, they refused to repudiate the Orwellian Newsspeak relabelling of the party colors. No Conservative party on the planet has “red” for its color. It’s the international color for leftism/totalitarianism, always has been. Soviet Russia, Red China, Nazi Germany, et al. Every time I hear or read someone refer to a Conservative state as a “Red” state, I want to slap them upside the head. Trained like good little media seals.

Thanks Joe,

Looking at that map why is Obama president?
Looks to me like the majority of this country did not want him back.
