Nurse Bloomy's feelings about us confirmed by his fellow NYers.

Bigots.

Silly, weak, fearful people need to borrow their substance and spine from a location. Strong, free people can live anywhere. The first group borrows stature from their zip code, the second group gives stature to their zip codes.

This has been true since way before Rome was founded.

When those red-neck truckers stop bringing food to those urban snobs, we’ll see who’s laughing last. For morons who are totally dependent on the “rubes” outside the cities for food and heat, they certainly have a loud mouth.

Perhaps the next time New York is attacked, we will remember thar they are not really Americans.

New York and Washington were attacked, and guess who bailed out on the war on terror first.

[Kozak]

Good. Then he won’t be mad when the US says FU when they come begging for money.

[stevio]

I’m all for splitting America up.

Most of the NYC arrogance is limited to the tiniest of the 5 boroughs,Manhattan.Come to Staten Island,where we just elected a Republican Congressman.

NY had best take care of themselves... America will never again respond for her like we did... california... much the same.

Oh, please. there is much human detritus per square foot in NYC as in any other place on earth. The idea that even a significant minority of NYers are glamorous Carrie bradshaws is a joke.

“In fact, for such a cosmopolitan city, it’s astonishing how parochial people are.”

You betcha!

*former NY’er and glad to be a citizen of the USA.
In NYC, there is no other world. It’s like living in an insulated grocery bag.

[reagan_fanatic]

I’ve been in both worlds.

I’ll take the genuine, authentic, friendly, caring ‘uneducated’ backwoods hicks over a bunch of soulless, smug, arrogant stuffed shirts any day of the week, thank-you.

[Roccus]

Born and bred in NYC, after I retired I moved to America.

[ArrogantBustard]

Election or not, New Yorkers still regard the places between the two coasts as the “fly-over states”: the unglamorous bits full of fat people who go to church. (I’ve been to Ohio, and the generalisation isn’t far off.)

I have actually lived in Ohio.

The author is a moron.

As a lifelong local, I can honestly say there are lots of people for whom this represents reality.

RL Stine: "I am so glad I live in New York City and not the United States.”

Let's see what tune he sings when the "just in time" freight transportation system comes to an abrupt interruption/halt. Lessee if he's so elitist and smug then.

Unfortunately the New Yorkers that show up at the polls with high turnout are all lefties. It’s not that we don’t have conservatives here. It’s that they have been so brainwashed to believe their votes don’t count that their turnout is at historic low levels. We need to change that mindset and get them out to the polls. we have a lot of work to do. If all conservatives and republicans actually showed up at the polls with turnouts of 80% this state would be in our hands.

I suggest a boycott by Americans of this Oikophobe. We should not allow her to educate our children with her second-rate horror stories for kids. Let them read CS Lewis or JRR Tolkein.
