Too bad Seattle, go cry some liberal tears into your overpriced lattes tomorrow. Of course, you also have the anticipation of another scintillating season of Mariner baseball coming up- NOT!

Psst.

Just for the record, you're being awfully hard on us conservative Washingtonians. We lost today, in a somewhat murky way...but it seems to me that the people on our team are behaving in a genuinely decent way and not whining. There are a few of us fans that are frustrated...but so far you haven't heard the team itself whining.

Now you want to insult our baseball team as well, because you can. Just remember that we fought like crazy in this state to keep Governor Rossi in...but were told to give it up after they counted until they won.

Insult the liberals if you will. But we know what it means to have a rigged set of rules apply only to us...and to be expected to shut up and pretend like it doesn't matter.

All I'm saying is, there are days that Washington Conservatives (and yes, conservative Hawks, Mariners and Sonics fans) start to feel a little angry at the attitude that we are big pansies.

Let me tell you something—it takes a lot of guts to live in a blue state and keep fighting the good fight knowing that we get little or no respect in the process. We don't want to surrender something we love to the liberals, no matter how difficult it is. And it makes us pretty doggone tough.

So...feel good about yourselves. Congratulations on the win. But please, cut us a little slack every now and then.

Thanks.
