2. I believe that Lancaster County PA went strongly for Bush
Oh well. At least the damn fags (not to be taken offensively, just immitating the moral right) can't get married so let their churches pay the mortgages and bills, it is great they have morals and are protected from all the terrorists in Amish country! I am so cynical today I hate it but I just can't stop!!!

3. I'm feeling the "let them eat cake and pray" thing too
I'm in blue PA but I believe you're right about Lancaster being a red county...but, hey, no gay people will be getting married so they should be grateful.

6. Have You All Forgotten Bush 3:16?
"The economy is strong". Just keep believing in that. Everything will be fine. Don't worry, rednecks in red states. "God speaks through Bush". He will save your red asses!
