10. Purple? You Mean Like Tinky-Winky?
The Honorable Reverend Falwell says purple is the color of homosexuals. The country being purple is a bad, bad thing.

Heh heh.

2. Cool
You've got to remember that gophers outnumber people in much of that big red landmass.

3. I just realized that a friend of mine works with one of the people
who created the map. I wonder if he knows that it's being posted at DU and other sites. He'll be happy!

7. I like these
I posted them on a non-political site and a freeper-type insulted me over them, but I guess the truth that the "mandate" isn't a mandate hurts the faith based community.

8. This makes me feel a bit better
It's a very encouraging glimpse into reality, rather than the spin we keep hearing.

Thanks for posting this! :toast:
