How many more of these bigoted threads, with the theme of "We are better then you are, because...", will we see? Every time libs find some coincidental difference between liberal and conservative, they rush out to start a thread.
The left in C-D seems to thrive off of their bigotry, whether or not it class, social standing, ethnicity, and now apparently they have to create a new class of bigotry to feel superior, occupational bigotry.
Seems like bigotryiskey here to me.
It's a two-way street, Wapasha. Some liberals start the "We are better, blah-blah-blah" threads, but I've seem quite a few conservatives start the "We are better, blah-blah-blah" threads. What's truly disheartening is the glee with which both sides engage in bashing one another.

True, but i think what we see is a lot of satirical payback, for some previous thread. But the liberals really do live and thrive on bigotry, just look at all the liberal organizations and legislation that built around class envy, racial, gender issues etc.. you don't see that with conservative groups.
just because they voted one way or the other FOR POTUS does not mean they are a 'red' or 'blue' state
North carolina has been a democrat stronghold for the last 100 years and still voted "red' for potus in 84,88,92,96,00,04 elections..yet they were CONTROLLED both houses and the governor by democrats
The cities attract a lot of big business & academia, but it also attracts all the welfare and the poor. The rural areas might be poorer, but they are more self-sufficient and the big cities need them. I live in Illinois and there is great animosity between rural Illinois (which is most of the state) and Chicago. Chicago is very "blue" while the rest is pretty "red". The blue gets everything (including our taxes) and the red has little to show for the taxes it pays. Illinois would be a very different state if Chicago became it's own state.
Well, Mrs. O'Leary and her cow tried to burn Chicago down in 1871, but it did not take.
The maps prove his point for the year that people voted. The most recent map he has in his post is from 2004.
His point was that the maps showed that states aren't blue/red for eternity but instead they are red/blue by a very small margin in most cases depending on the particular election. To call a state red or blue because it voted 51% to 49% in favor of one party over another I think is criminally insane.

In Virginia President Obama got 53% of the vote in 2008.
If you look at the metros that are red vs blue, you would see how blue metros are performing better economically and hold higher concentrations of educated people. Why is that?
Red states feed off of blue states. Red states also receive more food stamp aid.
Really? Explain New Orleans, a democratic party ruled city for about a hundred years.
again the FACT is that how a state went for POTUS does not make that a 'red' or 'blue' state
you have states like north carolina that have has both house and the governor be democrat for the last 100 years but voted from republicans in the potus elections
