Well don't go to the suburbs. If you do, you will find many of us to be OK. Just track your political converstions to the center or feign interest in the NFL and talk about your dis-like for the Packers. |

There's beauty in the solace of not giving a damn.

Boy, you'd sure hate to encounter anyone whose worldview doesn't match yours, eh?  |

Except the suburbs also voted for Obama. Heavily Republican Dupage county gave Obama a double digit winning margin. Imagine that! The suburbs are going to hell..... |

Now there's someone who drank the kool-aid.
Obama will ratchet up the affirm action, quota, and white-guilt game, not end it.
You liberal Whites literally have NO IDEA why non-Whites voted for Obama. Man, wake up.
The first thing Obama is talking about is taxing the white man and giving "stimulus" checks to the very people who pay literally no taxes.
My God. Single White women put Obama over the top to victory. No wonder they can't get a boyfriend.  |

Good post. I think Illinois (my home state) is a special place as well. I wonder if Obama will return to Chicago once he leaves office in 8 years? Can't think of any other city he would prefer to settle in. |
