"The majority of married women voted for Bush, while it was the single women, especially single mothers, that voted for Gore."

Don't forget that single women include a large proportion of WIDOWS who have been convinced by the media that conservatives want to take away their Social Security.

Might make a great plot for a HellRaiser 10 movie!

Yet in spite of all of that, we continue to pass conservative ballot initiatives.

And the politicians and courts simply ignore them. Your governor has assumed "emergency powers", which makes him for all intents and purposes a dictator. The legislature could rescind them, but they won't.

Remember Prop. 2 from 1998 where the voters demanded that the State spend gasoline taxes on roads and highways instead of using the highway fund for other purposes? It passed overwhelmingly with 75% voting yes.

Gray Davis just thumbed his nose at you and loaned part of that fund to the General Fund to keep the state solvent for a little while longer. See Is Gray Davis Looting California Retirement Funds?, especially post #4.

It's later than you think...

Many states have passed the 3 Strikes your out law, Many more have passed defense of marriage acts. Further more my state even makes homosexuality a felony punishable by 10 years in prison.

Tell me, why do you think that you must stay in a state so hostile to life (Pro-abortion) against the 2nd Amendment (Anti-Gun) and pro-homosexual?

It's the same old story here at FR time after time, day after day. People obsessed with knowing what's going on in the state they love to hate fail to know what's happening right under their noses in their own neighborhoods....by the people they elected.

Pa.'s high court allows same-sex adoptions

Pack your bags nitwit, it's over for you there. The homosexuals (that aren't in prison for being homosexual) are adopting kids in your neighborhood.

That would explain why you fly a PA flag on your home page.

I was born and raised in Pennsylvania. I moved to North Carolina, where I now live.

Is there any rule on FR that says you must fly the state flag of the state in which you now live?

I didn't think so.

That still doesn't change the fact that you were wrong about where I live.

No of course not. If you're going to fly a flag on your "home page" It makes perfect sense to fly some other state flag.

I admit it. I'm not a mind reader. I'll even bet almost 100% of the freepers here would've made the same assumption.
