This comes directly from today's New York Post - the Gossip section's Ms. Cindy Adams ....
FROM a blue-state New Yorker who still feels blue: "We should've let the South go when they wanted to secede from the Union. Fighting for the right to keep slaves? Those are the states we wanted to keep? Now we're the arrogant Northeast liberal elite and they're the real America?
"We founded this country. Who do they think those wig-wearing, lacy-shirt revolutionaries were who gave them the Second Amendment allowing them the right to keep their assault weapons in the glove compartment? Blue-staters from Boston, Philly, New York. That's why all the monuments are up here! We won't let them visit the Liberty Bell and Plymouth Rock anymore until they start respecting those other nine amendments. Those stripes on the flag? Nine are for blue states. It'd be 10 if those Vermonters had gotten their Subarus together and broken off from New York a little earlier.
"Northeasterners are arrogant? That's the cornerstone of what it means to be American. And we wouldn't be so arrogant if it wasn't our money paying for you! Those federal taxes you love to hate? Comes from us and goes to you for your bridges, your hurricanes, your Tennessee Valley stuff. Nine of the 10 states that get the most federal money and pay the least? Red states. Eight of the 10 that receive the least and pay the most? Blue. Which state has the lowest divorce rate? Massachusetts. Center of the gay marriage universe. And where's the highest? Ten of the top 10 are red states. But you-all go to church, right? At least that's what we hear about every election day. And who has the highest murder rates in the nation? You-all."
And that's all there is to say about that
