Red Iraq
Reach out and sneer: Dem radicals speak to the Red States | The Register
After reading this article, it occurs to me that Blue America sees Red America the same way Red America sees Iraq:
A basically backward place full of nice people unable to destroy their own tyrants without our enlightened help. Also, the fact that they are unable to do this imperils our safety as much as it imperils their own. Perhaps this is why we are making no headway in either place...
Also, both places are dusty and full of oil. Weird, that...

That sounds about right.

Are you saying we should invade, kill their leaders, and convert them to rationality?
I really would find myself being hypocritical if I endorsed that plan.
I don't think it works.
I mean, even in the Phillipines, did it work? Well, after we killed 250,000 - 1,000,000 of them, they finally settled down.
What a plan!
