QuoteOklahoma is rife with the zealousest of the zealots, including my favorite lady in the entire world, splendiferous #@!$ Sally Kern, who often says great things about gays and women and black people. She's a great old lady. And one who has won at least one election since revealing herself to be a crazy lunatic, so well done there, Oklahoma voters. That's the kind of thing you get in Oklahoma! People just love putting God into politics in that wacky hell-place.

Our secret is out.

I don't know, after reading some of the comments on that piece, I don't feel so bad about our state...

I read the "reviews" of all 50 states.

My impression of the reviews is that if Gawker could rid the country of all straight, white, conservative males with any favorable views toward religion, the US would be a pretty good place to live.

Yep, that's what I felt too- It's rated with a massive liberal slant, the farther left and loony a state is the better. In The state of   Nevada they just praised the legal prostitution and blasted evrything else about the state, Nevada has alot more going for it just legal prostitution.

Yeah, it's also got legal gambling. Were it not for that, I doubt the entire population of Nevada would be even 100,000.

Ah yes, since our resident meany has quit posting, you wanted to remind us of that since it existed in his signature line.
