Larry O is off his rocker! It is the Blue states that are sucking the life out of us in cowboyland! Look what they're doing:

1. Siphoning out our oil and pumping it to the Northeastern blue states

2. Building powerplants in AZ (Red State) to send power to California (Blue State)*.

3. Gobbling up all of the grain we grow in the heartland, then screwing with the markets to shaft the farmers. They used to whack them with the death tax after that, too!

4. Mining out our coal and using it (while complaining about using it at the same time, of course).

5. Hacking down our trees to build their houses (naturally, again, while accusing us of senseless destruction of "their" environment).

6. Eating up all of our livestock, then suing the BLM to screw the ranchers out of the land they've been using for generations.

7. Buying out all of our banks to bolster their own faltering bottom lines.

8. Pumping out all of our natural gas and burning it up. Then they petition to stop construction of pipelines that would let us burn our own fuel!

After all this, these jerks have the balls to make fun of us on top of that! They have the nerve to suggest we are sapping their resources. Shucks, folks, I'm starting to turn red and sputter. Nobody calls the coasts the Heartland, that's for sure.

*Naturally, I have no problem whatsoever with Arizona's power being consumed to support the red counties in California, home to hard-working farmers and, of course, FR.
