Just remember... There were only about 6 counties in MN that even voted Kerry. The rest of the state is a beautiful shade of red.

...drew signs for peace and anarchy

Anytime someone is demanding peace AND anarchy, you know they have smoked one too many.

"There were only about 6 counties in MN that even voted Kerry."

another Freeper pointed out to me that those counties
are also the state's leaders in drunk driving arrests.
makes ya wonder.

I donated outside the Ramsey County courthouse today.
A friendly deputy was ringing the bell.
Deluxe Corporation is doing matching funds for all donations
today up to $10K.

I hope there's a special place in hell for those whose character is indicated by these actions.

Why wait until they're dead?

Let's find a place for 'em in France!

DONATE TO THE SALVATION ARMY!!!

I haven't passed by a bell ringer yet without giving whatever is in my wallet. Today after grocery shopping, I had to empty out my coin purse for them. The benefit for me? My purse is about 2 pounds lighter.

Oops, my mistake, yes it was meant to be a sarcastic remark because you never hear of normal people pulling those stunts. Sorry for the confusion!
