#3 Hey, all those whackos in california have to come from somewhere. They're either recent transplants or 1st/2nd generation dustbowl refugees.

Big Government is a farm state tradition, check out any omnibus farm bill. Money for nothing and chicks for free.

#8 Early polls coming in, looks like Iowa dems got a good look at doctor dean and didn't like what they saw. Needless to say, kucinut isn't even getting a statistical percentage, less than 1%.

My favorite part of this article is: The home of Maharishi University of Management and a center of the Global Country of World Peace, Fairfield and the surrounding area is home to 2,000 practitioners of Transcendental Meditation... Can you imagine a MBA from the Maharishi University of Management would do for your resume?
