18. Is there a state that is socially liberal and pro business?

View profile
Pro-science, non-religious, pro-womens and gay rights.

Pro business, low unemployment, healthy economy, low taxes.
You may as well ask what state has the most unicorn farms. :rotf: :rotf:

3. Here in Tennessee it feels like there is literally a church on every corner.

Hell, in some parts I'm not exaggerating, there really is a new church every few miles.

2. IMO more churches = less desirable

Typical love and tolerance. Dummies threatened by the mere presence of churches.

I guess they'd rather have liquor stores and marijuanna "clinics".

Throw in a welfare check, foodstamps, free housing, free healthcare and the DUmmies will flock there to retire.

28. Only in my mind. I've longed for something like that, but I sure never

have found one. To me it often seems they are diametrically opposed. I can never find a pro-social rights place mixed with pro business, low unemployment, healthy economy, low taxes.

Causality doesn't really register in the DUmmie mind...

17. I live in TN, I want to drive out of it and never come back, but that's it.

When I graduate I'm so moving to NYC or maybe L.A., but the one time I visited New York City I loved it.

Great.  You Tennessee Cavers get rid of him and foist him on us.

There isn't hardly a week that goes by that I don't read some letter from a retiring Yankee to the editor of our 'very' local little newspaper complaining about how backwards, stupid, crazy we are. What I would like to know is, if they're so smart, so superior, so extremely intelligent how did they get fooled into retiring here. Why the F*** didn't they just keep going south until the reached Cuba or Colombia or some other place, any place but here.

I would like to say in their defense, some of the best republican Tea Party supporters in the county have been retiring Yankees. There just hasn't been enough of that kind settling here to counter balance the stupid Yankees. That end of the county will someday break out in a civil war. I'll be pulling for the Yankees this time....the conservative ones of course.

So no churches is what you want?  Well then pack your shit up, and move to Saudia Arabia.  

Let me know how that works out for you, infidel.

That is extremely rude, and the paper shouldn't even print them.  To elbow your way into a new community, and then trash it in public is just beyond the pale.  Especially in a north/south situation.

The worst offender even did it on CNN NEWS....she said we made all our political decicions using "faith and finances fuel political decisions - CNN."

Seems to me that using "Faith and Finances" to inform your politics is a hell of a lot better than using "Feeeeeeelings"

But then I'm just a dumb Northwoods gun-clingin' raaaaaacist conservative Rethuglikkkan, so what do I know?
