That's exactly right -- just like when now-deceased traitor John Murtha described his constiuents as racist, redneck yahoos. Well, guess who re-elected Murtha.... AND built a statue to commemorate him???

I think its much more than just people feeding off the Govt goodies, I also think there are a lot of stupid people out there..who can get trashed by Obama and the Democrat party and they will STILL vote for them, its unbelievable.

I compare it to "battered wife syndrome" a political version of it. The wife hates the husband who beats her and resents him but is afraid to leave or change because he supports her. Murtha called us (I live near Pittsburgh but not in his district) basically "stupid rednecks" but the rubes keep electing him. I guess because he brings home the pork, the old folks still see the Democrats using FDR glasses and the able bodied welfare bums are on the take. Some also call it the political version of the Stockholm Syndrome.

I think we can neutralize the Pittsburgh democrats but the Philly ones are the huge millstone around our neck. Sometimes I think we need to split the Commonwealth into two or let the Western half join Ohio but I doubt they'd let us. B-P
