feel for the "real people" of Vermont. I really do. If I could set up refugee camps for you in NH I would. You could ride your Harleys and drink your Pabst Blue Ribbon. You could ski in a pair of jeans with sweatpants on underneath and feel fashionable. You could snowmobile across your neighbor's yard and he wouldn't care. You could hunt, go into a convenience store afterwards covered in blood, and nobody would give you a hassle.

So good, so true, it deserved to be said again. This from a long-time-back native Californian who knows how many of us way-back Californios have experienced the same kind of thing in our own once Republican state. We used to ski in jeans with sweatpants underneath in the Sierras, and it was perfectly okay! I never thought about it until now!

Remember, Reagan was California's Governor for a time. And I can't see wyhich prominent US political leaders on this side of WWII who are as conservative as him.

"When nuclear weapons were an elite club of five relatively sane world powers, progressive opinion was convinced the planet was about to go ka-boom and the handful of us who survived would be walking in a nuclear winter wonderland. Now anyone with a few thousand bucks and an unlisted Islamabad number in his Rolodex can get a nuke, and the Left is positively blasé."

Ain't it the truth?

You can still glimpse the remnants of the internationalist Left on their fading T-shirts — Fidel, Che, Mao, Allende, the Sandinistas...

Fidel, Che, Mao, Allende, Sandinista, Kerry, Harkin, Ortega BUMP!
