The way you talk about conservatives does not say much for your education.

There are not a lot of places Republicans can move.

Western Europe is out of the question due to taxes and government healthcare.

The middle east? For obvious reason: hate for arabs and muslims.

Australia? Same as western europe.

Canada? Rights for gays, and government healthcare? Nope.

South America, parts of eastern europe and africa might work. Little to no government intervention, no regulations at all, rich people prosper at the expense of the poor, little to no rights for women, gay marriage ban, little regard for weather...yep.

I hear Russia is lovely this time of year. Problem is a lot of Republicans still think it's called the Soviet Union so they can't find it on a modern globe.

Actually, it doesn't say much for yours--you don't seem to have much of an understanding of the rest of the world. The Prime Minister of Australia is a woman, and she's an athiest. That was the Op's point, which flew right over your head.

meh.
Disgruntled Republicans always grumble about moving away, but they never do. Few of them have the wherewithall to move, and fewer know anything about any other country. Most don't even know much about a neighboring state.

It the old grass is greener on the other side of the fence syndrome.

However, I do know some smart Republicans who retired to Mexico and love it down there. Several found they can live cheap enough to be able to buy a travel trailer, and come back here to live in our mild and spectacular summers. Many just call home once in a while and never come back up.

Don't you guys molest Kangaroos down there? Drink barrels of Fosters? Have a bunch of manly women who can outbench most of the men? Yeah, I think I will pass with moving to a country full of who haven't contributed anything to the civilized world besides Crocadile Dundee.

Oh for gosh sakes, i'm republician and proud, and i am not moving anywhere, but staying in my little corner in San Clemente by the ocean, which i love.

I am not moving to Australia, or anywhere else for that matter, Obama ain't worth me moving. Give someone enough rope soon enough they will hang themselves.

Actually, it's the LWNJs that are more likely to threaten to move out of the US because of who was elected president, not RWNJs

That's right. After bush was reelected the list of LWNJ's that threatened to leave was numerous.
