Gov Kaine, on Fox New Sunday, claimed that Virginia (his state) borders Delaware - on the Eastern Shore. It does not. Maryland gets in the way of that border.

[NutmegDevil]

This guy does not his own state - granted the Eastern Shore is in the boonies.

[johniegrad]

Philosophical question more than anything else. Can a state border itself?

[pipecorp]

What’s he smokin? and did obama sell it to him?

[SandRat]

He must have failed 5th Grade U.S. Geography class.

[ken21]

the gov is correct!

[rightwingintelligentsia]

Do you perhaps want to rethink the title of the thread?

[fieldmarshaldj]

Eyebrow ate his brains. A very small snack.

[johniegrad]

See my number 2.

[Salamander]

“Maryland gets in the way of that border.”

It’s our patriotic duty to do so.

Dang, here I am on Virginia’s Eastern Shore, 8 miles from the Maryland state line and Gov. Eyebrow now tells me Maryland is gone? What did he do with it?

[Gabz]

DelMarVa Ping with requests for the Virginia lists.

This is utterly hilarious.

[NutmegDevil]

Just how is the governor correct? My DeLorme shows no such border. Pray tell?

[ken21]

you cross the chesapeake bay bridge from virginia into the peninsula of virginia

and that peninsula borders on delaware.

si.

been there, done that.

[Gabz]

.......granted the Eastern Shore is in the boonies.

WRONG -------- the Eastern Shore is God's Country, but those of us who live here are perfectly happy to have others believe as you do -- it helps keep the riffraff out.

have the moderator fix your headline, then you can call somebody out.

[wfu_deacons]

I was book on Chincoteague (the Eastern Shore of Va), I can assure you that Virginia does not border Delaware.

[A_Former_Democrat]

Then it sounds like NObomba missed out on his ideal running mate . . . a geography genius to match his geography genius.

[coolbreeze]

Wrong...you still have to drive through Maryland to get to the People’s Republic of Delaware....I don’t care if you’ve driven it...I live on the Easter Shore and am from Delaware....I was granted political asylum down here.

[Gabz]

and that peninsula borders on delaware.

WRONG. Delaware is part of the peninsula, that is why it is called DELMARVA. Maryland is in between VA and DE.

I've lived on DelMarVa for more than 25 years, I do believe I know what I'm talking about in regard to the geography of the region.

[ken21]

i stand corrected!

or, should i sit down?
