Thank you blue staters, you have been very generous
I live in Mississippi surrounded by believers (who know nothing, but damn do they believe?) On avg over the past 10 years MS "red" necks, pull yourselves up by your bootstraps, God fearing believers have received $1.67 of federal revenue for every buck of taxes paid. Thank you very much. But I think its time to stop. I think its time for those who bush depended on to "win" should do without the federal trough. Blue states have been carrying red states for years. Its time to stop. Its time cigarette and beer money came from somewhere else besides a welfare check. Its, by god, time that Mississipians and other red staters started walking to equal their talking.

Go to: www.dailyhowler.com today if you wanna get pissed about this subject. There is no believing in the numbers they are all facts.

4. Throw out the baby with the bath water?
Do you really want to screw the 41 percent of Georgians who voted for Kerry? Or the 47 percent of Floridians? Or the 49 percent of New Mexicans? Or the 49 percent of Ohioans?

5. It's not their fault.
They are like hogs in a feedlot, your compatriots.
Being screwed for over a hundred years and too fucking stupid
to figure it out. But thanks for giving us "losers" a thought.

And my regards to you personally.

6. I'm tired of subsidizing other states
while our schools lack funding, we face a huge deficit, and we are called crazies. I wish no harm on anyone but it's time to make all states pay their fair share for this insane military and federal spending.
