Having lived in Baltimore County recently, for a year and a Half before escaping, they probably should shut down Baltimore permanently. It’s a unfriendly, Ugly (in parts), Over taxed, heavily congested “Blue” nightmare of a city.

If they Rented people Guns/Ammo when they visited Baltimore, it would be a much more Friendly place to visit.
Blue states are ALL in Trouble, From Maryland, Illinois, to California. Must be something in common ?

pardon me for asking the obvious, but which way were you hoping we would "freep" this pole ? I'm inclined to think shutting down govt for a couple of days is a good thing, but I'm not really sure which way even Freep would lean these days.

'Do you support Gov. Martin O'Malley's reported proposal to save $34.4 million by temporarily furloughing state employees and shutting down state government operations for two days?'

Yes (829 responses)

No (899 responses)

Witness, if you will, the anatomy of my birthplace. The 'yes' vote represents 'real' Maryland - those more rural peoples who reside west of Gaithersburg and east of the Bay. The 'no' vote represents the miserable, multi-culti, me-first Socialists that occupy a swath of land about twenty-five miles on either side of the I-95 corridor. Believe me or look at the electoral maps of 2008, 2004, 2000, 1996, and so on and so on. Interstate 95 is The Berlin Wall of 'The Free State'.

I was hoping to freep this poll in favor of the two day furlough. O’Malley brought a large tax increase to Marylanders in special session this year. Guess what, Marylanders cut back on spending. Go figure. A lot of those state workers looking down the barrell of the furloughs voted for O’Malley. I know this could inconvenience me but I believe the situation would have played out differently had Erhlich won the election. Let them get hit in the pocket book for electing this goof.

After a 6 pack of National Boh it’s quite possible she might look like Michael Phelps’ new girlfriend

Normally, we only do polls, but I'll make an exception....

;)

FREEP THIS POLL ***PING!*** FRmail me if you want to be added or removed from the Fearless Poll-Freeping Freepers Ping list. And be sure to ping me to any polls that need Freepin', if I miss them. (looks like a medium volume list) (gordongekko909, founder of the pinglist, stays on the list until his ghost signs up for the list)

Well I voted aye.

O’Malley is already unpopular. This will hurt him amongst his base. Ehrlich or Steele (or a primary challenger) could possibly beat him in 2010.
