Bill Maher and the crowd that sneers as Mississippi ought to get their facts right. A visit to Missisippi: Believe It! reveals the astonishing reality about the Magnolia State.

Here's just one fact about this pro-God, pro-life, pro-gun, pro-military state populated by some of the finest people you'll find anywhere in America:

If you listen to “Hollywood,” Mississippi should be the last place to turn for learning anything about medicine. They couldn’t be more wrong. When it comes to modern medicine, Mississippi wrote the book. Literally. While at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, Mississippian Dr. Arthur Guyton wrote the Textbook of Medical Physiology, used by medical students around the world since 1956.

The best-selling physiology book ever published, this textbook may very well be the best-selling medical textbook of any kind. UMC physiologist, Dr. John Hall, assisted Dr. Guyton with the ninth and tenth editions of the textbook. Upon Dr. Guyton’s death in 2003, Dr. Hall took over the textbook, thus continuing to help educate the finest future physicians in the world ... through a book written right here in Mississippi. Mississippi. You could say we’re a textbook case for advancing modern medicine.

And there are many more truths on that site to counter the sneering liberal lies about Mississippi.

The Marshall Space Flight Center is in Alabama. This was Wernher Von Braun's facility which built the Saturn rocket.

The Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. When Tom Hanks had a problem, did he call Hollywood? No, he called Houston. And they fixed it.

Cape Canaveral Air Force base, along with the Kennedy Space Center in the background, Titusville, Florida.

Well, to me it looks like the whole gulf coast is well represented in the space program, from the early 1960s on. As for Hollywood, they can only fake moon landings.
