We’re being told that this election result was in part about the snooty Dems’ condescending attitude toward the hillbillies in “flyover country.” I’ve heard it from a conservative friend, and I heard a double dose of it last night on Maher from Alan Simpson (who, by the way, really had his Depends in a wad for some reason – when

Errr, this isn’t good.

I think Thomas Friedman’s “Two Nations Under God,” from this morning’s NYT, stops a bit short.

Jeffrey Dean Foster wrote this morning to ask if I had some succinct words that might encourage people to get out, stand in line, and vote for Kerry. I don’t know that this is succinct, and it’s certainly nothing you haven’t heard from this quarter before, but I did spend a couple minutes pulling together an informal little summary. Honestly,

I don’t know what this woman said about Bush to get the interest of the SS, but I can’t imagine she posted anything that’s worse than what I THINK on a daily basis. Still, it’s useful to know how these things sometimes work. Also, I will repeat – if I do not have a file with the Feds, I am
