How do you view Colorado?

What perceptions do you have regarding our medium-sized square of America?

Its former image of rugged independence has been lost. The Rockie Mountain state has been overrun with progressive vermin.

But its still real pretty there.

Its former image of rugged independence has been lost.

Yeah, its a shame our quality of living and life expectancy have increased. Don't worry though, if you ever come out to visit, I can take you to where mountain men will still shoot you for trespassing on their property. And our "Make My Day" laws will happily allow them to do just that. Hoorah 'Murica!

Kidding aside, there is some truth that we've transformed into more of a swing state than the old stalwart Red fortress state we used to be, but this is a) pretty new and b) far from universal.

The only wretched hive of scum and progressiveness we really have is Boulder, and that town is fairly small, despite its influence and affluence. Meanwhile, our second biggest metro, Colorado Springs, is still remarkably conservative. Denver, and my town, Fort Collins, are both fairly centrist. And the farmers and mountain folk, typically decidedly conservative, still have some sway.

We may love our hippie grass, but we love our guns and Bibles too.

But it is quite beautiful here. A little too much sun for my taste, but I hear my personal love for overcast days is not normal. Ah well.

Well, its good to hear that there remain bastions of conservative thought as well regions untouched by the curse of progressives.

The only possible remaining complaint I can make against your beautiful state, would be the hosting of Coors in Golden, unquestionably the worst tasting beer since Old Milwaukee. Other than that its a great place.

How do you view North Carolina, and don't say "from a distance".

Look these people want to undo our capitalist economy, then step in with socialism. They want to rewrite our constitution to suit their views.

Would ya go for "Progressive Rats" maybe.

Do not be fooled by rhetoric that suggests America needs to be fundamentally changed, because its fundamentally flawed. Socialism has never worked to provide a vibrant and growing economy. Capitalism has been copied and succeeded in hundreds of economies.

Those who would undo us are subject to criticism that points out there true nature. I'm gona change that to "Vile Progressive Vermin".

I would argue that is is YOU who have fallen, fallen for a lie.
