You've been off on most of your comments.

For example, a simple google of spending and debt, Obama v Bush shows you're very wrong as well:

New York? What a bunch of crap. People don't pay a fortune to live somewhere miserable. In fact, many people are moving out of the North Eastern NJ counties and into the city. I'll give them Atlantic City, that is one dump of a town.

Detroit, Flint, Warren, Toledo, Saint Louis, Milwaukee, Atlanta, Cleveland, Gary and Youngstown gun-control cities?
Have you read the link?
Also, Stockton and Modesto are liberal cities?!?
The ignorance of conservatives never ceases to amaze me...

Considering that the best american cities are ALL liberal, I guess you don't know what you're talking about.
Also, such cities have made USA economy the world strongest one: without them, USA would be third world.

WV is quickly becoming a red state, IMO. It's only miserable because it's a poor state; let's face it. WV is poor and has been poor for a long, long time. It saddens me because it's where I'm from.

The poorest parts of the USA are still far ahead of the poorest parts of Italy.

The poorest parts of Italy aren't as crime-ridden as the poorest parts of USA.
The life expectancy is also longer.
And food is better.
