    WV has only been red since 2000. Historically democrat state due to coal mining union strength. It was one of the last states to reflect the defection of pro-life Democrats to the Republican party. The state prior to 2000 could best be described as Reagan Democrats: strong military, pro-life, but reliant on social spending. You could do a conservative poll and the average WV would've looked conservative. But then in the voting box....

    WV Republicans also never made a serious attempt to unseat Bobby Byrd. He sat on the finance committee and filled northcentral WV with federal jobs.

    C'mon man! Her definitely-not-mobbed up husband is just really really good at trading stocks and commercial property investment projects that just so happen to get awarded a lot of GSA contracts. What's shady about that?

    Oh, and US legislators were exempt from inside trading laws and their influence on the industries their laws effect... Doesn't seem v like any conflict of interest /sarcasm

    Yep it just got worse and worse. I can't help but over lay the pic. Of a opened mailbox a lit cherry bomb and the mail box mouth closed. Then a really loud splat.

    So they took down the Teddy Roosevelt sculpture at the New York Museum because it was a symbol of colonialism and racism. Sorry if Teddy Roosevelt offends you, you hate America.

    Roosevelt invited Booker T. Washington to dinner at the Whitehouse. Name a democrat president who invited a leader among the African American community prior to MLK. Go ahead, I will wait.

    Ignorant politically correct clowns. :rant:
