I’m having a hard time mustering up any sympathy for most of the people on the east coast, simply because the majority of them got the government they deserved. Their own policies and electoral choices have hindered their ability to recover, and I’m wondering if it might be good for them to get mugged good and solid by their own choices so they will get their heads screwed on straight. Might be the teacher in me, but this is a “teachable moment”.

For those who are not complicit in the bad governance, I am so sorry that they have to be stuck to the same fate as the others. Just like I’m sad that my kids’ future is similarly tied to the ball and chain of all the idiots who voted for Obama.

Yeah it sucks. I think I am conservative enough to move to Texas, plus I have lots of family there. My first preference would be Tennessee (partly because I love Country and Bluegrass music) but I don’t know a soul there. I also liked North Carolina when I visited there recently, and they are becoming a ‘swing’ state, so maybe my vote would have the most impact there.

I’ve always thought that fighting against the local libbies was part of my responsibility, to try to be an alternate voice against them. Now I think it doesn’t matter.

My neighbors will get the government they voted for.

Funny, looks to me like the NORTHEAST and WEST coast.

Considering trade center one in the 1990s and again in 2001, one wonders if it is possible to shock them into learning.
