I asked this before, but I'll repeat. . .WHAT IS WRONG WITH TEXAS???
Where are all the good Texans, like Ann Richards and Molly Ivins? Why does Texas keep giving us KKKarl Rove, pResident Weak and Stupid, the Bugman, Jon "Man on Box Turtle" Cornyn, Kay Bailey Hypocrite and Rod "Teacher's Unions are Terrorists" Paige, Rick "Hang 'Em High" Perry and the rest of these people!

What is wrong with Ohio? Ken "Uncle Tom" Blackwell, Rob "Abramoff" Ney, John "Checks on House Floor" Boehner, Jean "Marines are Cowards" Schmidt, Bob "Prison Bitch" Taft, etc?

Seriously! I know Ohio and Texas produce good people (I mentioned Texas before, and Dennis Kucinich is from Cleveland), but what is going on?

I would expect this from Utah, Mississippi and Alabama, but not Ohio. Texas prides itself on not being bullied, but look at what represents the state!

What is going on?

1. Why must we label any state?
I live in Kansas and I am not a fundie or a creationist or a repuke. Neither are any of my friends.

6. New York is a sesspool is what I was told when I grew up there!
People labelled NY as a sesspool and Arizona (where I live now) as a barren waste land. I am not labelling a state! I am asking how people in a state can be hijacked by the like of who I mentioned.

2. I was raised there and there were
lots of (oil and rich) men who really did have egos the size of the state. I don't know why, I have lived several other places and never seen that in such concentration anywhere else.

5. It's the place you can look the farthest and see the least.
I think Woody Guthrie said that.
