California is an anus, contained within an armpit. The anus is Hollywood. What a shame that a few good conservatives have to live in such a socialist climate.

Another California bashing thread. **sigh**

I would like to point out once again that about four and a half million Californians voted for GWB. That's more than a few, Bud. That's more people than live in most eastern states.

I thought this was a Massachusetts bashing thread...?

Yeah, but ya know what? It doesn't even bother me anymore, especially when it's about politics. Consider all of the other states whose politicians are as bad if not worse than California's, so other than rock-ribbed conservative states (and I honestly can't think of any anymore), the Golden State isn't completely tarnished yet, not for me.

If you had bothered to read my other threads, explaining why I chose California (I also said Massachussettes), you would know that I was speaking from the socio-economic perspective (who the elected officials are, the general politics, Hollywood, illegals, etc.). Nowhere, I repeat NOWHERE, did I attack any particular Freeper who is from California. However, when people, speak of "which state is the armpit of America" they invariably haul out the redneck Southern jokes.

Well, Bud, when I said "a few good conservatives", I knew it was more than could be counted on both hands. However, I didn't have the demographics at hand or I would have pinpointed it down.
