I was keenly interested in those blue-infested blobs shown for Georgia, so I gave it a thought and tried a few searches on Google. I ended up with my answer when I Googled “Georgia County Map of SNAP Usage”
I got this link:
which is an interactive map of the US showing % of SNAP usage of the US. Curiously, the map is intended to show that Republicans are more likely to have constituents on SNAP than Democrats (go figure).
The blue blob around Atlanta is understandable, but the south west corner was not immediately evident before I examined the SNAP usage. If you zoom in on the interactive county SNAP map, you get your answer, they are all largely 25% or more (very many over 30%) on SNAP.
Even more interesting is the fact that there are many over 30% counties in the mid-east half of Georgia near the SC border, but they didn’t go blue. The winners are: Early County and Taliaferro Georgia who weigh in at 41% on food stamps.....
BTW, this interactive map is for the whole US, so have fun with it.
First things first. They are back to Iraq and Afghanistan. The administration is going to pivot, put additional troops into Iraq and then the left and MSM will spend the next several months planting the seed that Republicans are to blame in the heads of Americans. This is a given.
“Whoever came up with it this time was a genius. But it will only work one time. The Democrats and their nasty henchmen in the media will only redouble their efforts. “
I humbly disagree. The two things that will not only fire up the base, but also turn the middle against the right is abortion and gay marriage. Conservatives cannot win the cultural war from Washington. The cultural war MUST be fought at the community level, in the churches in the schools, but never on the front page of the NY Slimes.
For this strategy to continue to work, Republicans need to take back every bill that is on Reid’s desk, hack them up into single items and send it back to Obama. Something like Immigration Reform needs to start as a single bill addressing border security. Now Obama, in front of the entire country must sign it or not. Make sure nothing other than wall off the border is in the bill. Wash, rinse and repeat for Obamacare and everything else.
Keep it simple. Keep it narrow. Americans have been dumbed down by the left so we cannot comprehend complex issues. Close the border, yes or no? Is as simple as it gets.
Free S*** bump.
Nice surfing.
