3. Ms Palin would probably consider
my home state (MA) to be "anti-American". But I don't give a crap what she thinks. It was home to the start of the American Revolution. And if that's not good enough for her, she can go f*** herself.

4. Welll.. I'd have to say Anti American for me.
I live in Katy, TX.

Where people can be shot, even in the back, for being on someone else’s property and with no legal consequence for the shooter.

Where homeowner associations openly allow McCain/Palin signs to be placed in yards, yet anyone who dares place an Obama/Biden sign in their yard will receive fines for deed restrictions, followed by architectural control committee's fining you for ANY minor discrepancy on your home.

Where automobiles get vandalized for having Obama/Biden stickers, and the local police laugh at you for it.

Where you can have "FAGGET" (yes it was actually spelled that way) written in spray paint on your door, have SEEN the kids that did it as they ran away from the front of your house, report it to the police, and not a damn thing happen from it. Talk to the parents of the kids just to have them laugh and deny it.

In a state where:

George bush was governor.

They install an express lane for the death penalty, which is pretty obviously targeted at minorities, and "undesirables."

A great president was assassinated.

Has successfully amended it's constitution to define marriage as being between a man and woman.. by a HUGE majority.

Hell I could go on all day long.. Yes, I'm in a city and state that is what I consider VERY anti American.

5. Why, Pro-American, of course!
I mean, I'm pretty sure we execute more people in this town than any other in America- and if that's not the red-blooded American way, then I don't know what is!!!!1!

10. I'm from NYC---My city by the GOP
would probably fall into Anti-American. My entire state is blue, if blue-black was an option as extreme Dem, then my state would probably be sporting that colour.

14. Portland, OR. We aren't called "Little Beirut" for nothing. I don't think
Palin would get a very warm welcome here in our little city.

19. Oh ok,well that's the area Ms. Palin was referring to when she went into
her nasty rant:

"We believe that the best of America is not all in Washington, D.C. We believe" -- here the audience interrupted Palin with applause and cheers -- "We believe that the best of America is in these small towns that we get to visit, and in these wonderful little pockets of what I call the real America, being here with all of you hard working very patriotic, um, very, um, pro-America areas of this great nation."

24. I live in Oklahoma.
I suppose Palin would consider that Pro-America.

But I also live in Mexico part of the time, and I'm a leftist...so I guess I'm a little bastion of Anti-America according to that crazy witch from the north (Bachmann).
