1. As long as it is the USA...Doesn't matter. Blue,red,black,brown,white,yellow....we are all human beings and have good and bad. The politicians are the ugly....
2. If it wasn't so damn cold in the winter, I'd move to Idaho. The one thing I like about it is an unwritten rule that says ignore your neighbors and don't ask questions. My kind of place.
3. Go visit San Franisco and you see why. Best place to live is America I don't see Red or Blue.
4. San Francisco?!?! The majority of Americans aren't on board with an annual festival where adults parade around naked and masturbate and have hetero- and homo-sexual sex with each other...while children are present! I think it's called the Folsom Street Festival(?) and apparently Nancy Pelosi is cool with it since that is the district she hails from.
5. Most of those are blue areas. I've been to most of them. San Francisco is too expensive and has too much traffic. I even lived near Asheville for a while. They all have one thing in common though. Gay resorts. Hmmmm. I wonder if there is a connection.
6. I live in WV. Almost heaven is our slogan. Rightfully so.
