Stupis Maryland

Stupid Maryland

Maryland has a reputation for being one of the most backward thinking states in the Union. Our newspapers are uber liberal. Our television is uber liberal. Our schools are uber liberal, and our legislature is owned lock, stock, and barrel by unions, lawyers, insurance agents and assorted pissant groups of the perpetually angry and abused. We're one of just 10 states that won't allow personal firearm protection. This is my state, so I must suffer the consequences of their voting booth foolishness. We had a very good Governor in Bob Ehrlich. So good that The WaPost made him the first Republican since Abe Lincoln that they endorsed for reelection. Didn't matter. Now with a Democrat in the Governor's mansion who will not veto squat - this is what we're getting.

  1. Paid college tuition for illegal immigrants
  2. An interstate compact to award electoral votes to the winner of the national popular vote
  3. Felon voting rights
  4. Parole for second-time drug offenders serving mandatory minimum sentences

Yes, these are bloody morons, but they're my bloody morons, so I
          Maryland asshole alert
won't deploy the B-52 over Maryland skies until after I finish with California, Washington, New York New Jersey, and Vermont. And we've sold our house and moved to the Caymans. And warned the kids. Even the guilty ones. Family comes first. My family, not yours Vermonters.

A national popular vote is the right idea. It has 70% support from the public and over the years won the support of Nixon, Ford, GHW Bush, Dole and many more. Do conservatives really want to be in the tiny minority on this issue?

Ever wonder why Sen. Reid's nickname is Pinky. I don't think he really got it in gym class like he says.

the reason for electoral votes is to keep a small geographical section of the country from having unfair influence in an election. What if the media were controlled by unscrupulous people in just a few areas like L.A., Chicago and New York, why they could completely the Presidency. They could also control what they teach in schools and the children would grow up to vote the same way. Ugh...Horrible isn't it. But that couldn't happen in our country, right?

The GenCpl is correct. I do not believe that stat or poll about 70% supporting popular vote. That would basicly destroy the republic which is what Hillary and her ilk wants. Then the President could be elected by just a matter of 7 or 8 states out of 50.

The media IS controlled by unscupulous people in ALL areas - where have YOU been living GenCplRilerite?

However, the Electoral College is the thing that protects us from being completely destroyed by the Dems - so as far as I am concerned, it bloody well stays!

I must not have gotten the tone quite right. I was being facetious.

DemocracyUSA I call horseshit on the people you say support this most unAmerican of ideas, that is, a national popular vote to elect a president. Links please.

Your moniker says it all. America is not a democracy, America is a representative republic. A federation of states. Our founders were genius to come up with the electorial college. Maryland is nutso to subscribe to this compact. There is a similar bill being run through our legislature(dem controlled) here in Colorado and will be signed by our governer(also a dem).

By agreeing to this crazy proposal, Maryland has forfeited it's power(invested in it's electors) to vote the will of the people of Maryland. It will now cast it's electorial votes with whoever receives the largest amount of votes in a national counting.

A democracy is 2 wolves and a lamb voting what's for dinner. No where in our constitution is the word democracy, our founders were absolutely certain that is not the type of government thet wanted. Hence the electorial college. The sad fact is that liberals are ignorant of history and only seek to gain contemporary political advantages. Our country be damned.

My wife and I are both SMIBs (southern maryland in-bred) ,both of our families have lived on the same farms for over a hundred years.I can not for the life of me understand how omalley beat Bob Erlich ,He was an excellent Governor . What in the hell are the people of this state thinking ? Do we want this state to be run like Baltimore ? It has gotten so bad that the wife and I have seriously considered pulling up roots , but if we sold the farm , the taxes would not leave us enough to buy something else . Here in southern Md. the farmers can't make any money farming , so the family farms are being sold off to grow more mansions for government employees . Don't even get me started on the in state tuition for ILLEGALS ! ,the death tax , crime etc ! Roger, when you fire up the B-52 please try to miss the farms : )

I am not a true SMIB but have lived here since 1964. I have a SMIB sticker on my truck and have the definite Suthern Merlin twang. I hate to do it, but I am pulling up stakes within the next 5 years and heading south.
I grew up on the water and left it to go to school. Now I want back on the water, but who in the hell can afford it in this area now???
I drives me crazy to see his people from DC buying up all of these places, bulldozing them, and then building a "retreat" that they may visit 4 or 5 weekends out of the summer. Could it be jealousy? Maybe. But I want back on the water. I'll miss the crabs and the oysters. But I'll just import them wherever I end up.

Rodger: There's this great invention out there. It's called a 'car'. A development of the 'car' is known as the 'moving van'.

Haul your ass out of the gulag and go somewhere free people live. The cost of living will be lower. Restrictions on personal fire arms will be minimal. Taxes will be lower. Food will be both cheaper and better.

Or else just admit you're a pussy and like rolling around licking your balls and moaning.

[D]emocracies have ever been spectacles of turbulence and contention; have ever been found incompatible with personal security, or the rights of property; and have, in general, been as short in their lives as they have been violent in their deaths.
-James Madison

Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide.
-John Adams

Yes, democracyusa, I believe I'm quite happy in this minority, however big or small it is.
