Well, a**hat, since you ask, I came out of Arkansas, my mother did, my brother and a whole bunch of relatives also, most of them still in Arkansas and most of them vote conservative. Those are all "good" things that have come out of Arkansas. I wish my mother had stayed there when I was young and I wouldn't be stuck in CA now.
Lots of good people in Arkansas and have come from Arkansas. To imply they are all a bunch of jerks like Clinton and Huckabee is pretty frickin' sh***y, IMO.
I was born in and grew up in Massachusetts, where my mother’s family went back several generations (fortunately I and nearly all in the current generations have moved elsewhere). It would not offend me in the least if anyone here says “Does anything good come out of Massachusetts?” b/c I know (or I hope) that FReepers making such remarks are referring to the dominant corrupt and PC political culture, to the political class and the majorities that keep electing the scoundrels, and not to *everyone* living in or who ever “came out of” Massachusetts (although in the case of Mass. conservatives are a vanishing breed).
In the case of Arkansas, I assume and believe that millions of good people live there and plenty more have “come out of” there to live in other places. Still, I hope you can acknowledge that the influence of Arkansas pols on the national (and international) scene has not exactly been positive. The same must be said even more emphatically, of course, about Mass. pols.
