1. I don't think it's any secret

that bigotry is the basic Repug party plank.

2. the sad fact is that there are a lot of really good people in the Red

states who can't help the fact that a majority of their state's residents are morons...

but the two maps are very telling... Lyndon Johnson remarked that the Democrats would lose the South when Civil Rights were legislated...sad but very true.

4. These maps say a lot

about the state of divisiveness in this country. Not that I'm saying that there is going to be a civil war, but the polarity is worrisome.

To what degree will this all be taken?
