December 19, 2004Dave Barry's plan to end the red-blue riftThis is funny. A couple of teases. I thought that in today's column I would heal the nation. The nation suffered a wound during the recent presidential election as a result of the rift between the red states - defined as "states where 'foreign cuisine' pretty much means Pizza Hut" - and the blue states, defined as "states that believe they are smarter than the red states, despite the fact it takes the average blue-state resident 15 minutes to order a single cup of coffee."Posted by Todd Pearson at December 19, 2004 07:55 PM Comments
Todd; Yes, very funny (as always). Love this quote to: I truly believe that if the red states and blue states made a sincere effort to get to know each other, they would discover that, beneath their surface differences, there are a lot of deep, underlying differences.Posted by: Chris at December 21, 2004 08:46 AM Chris, You are very right, after polls show mostAmericans are somewhere in the middle, that says the Red and Blue states have more in common than the Democrat and Republican parties like to state.
