nope

Based on some nonsense my Dad was spewing, apparently the right wing talk show nuts are talking about Bush having low unemployment numbers. Its pretty easy to misrepresent this stuff to the brain-damaged, so I don't see the GOP recovering for a while.

The R's have started out with low numbers in your graph


... it's what they did with them that is of concern. :rolleyes:

Unemployed? Here's a rifle get on the bus.

31 charts, many of which are surprisingly interesting.

Well, tiny homeless people are SOL, and used appliance boxes are getting harder to come by. I guess it's head to the bridges and fight it out with the trolls.

Hmm, lots of interesting things there, and some genuinely good things.

Only as a percentage of the global population. In absolute terms, there are more slaves now than ever before.

Some are pretty out of date - the one about woman homemakers not being stuck at home is from 1985. Update that one and we'll see if all that free time is being used for a second job.

I'm pretty sure that is a profile shot of the Loch Ness Monster.

Bush's unemployment numbers were better than Obama's.

And better and better, the further back from Obama you go.

If you toss something off a cliff, you're its high point.

Nice!

Where the hateful tweets come from... In your head you have to correct for population density. Full clickable by slur map here.

What's up with the Finger Lakes?

They seem to hate blacks and gays. The tweets are spread to the county level. There is a ton of animosity between ultra-progressive Ithaca and the surrounding right-wing red neck population...

Turns out you can scroll in. It looks like Watkins Glen (struggling tourist trap) has a problem. Lewisburg, PA has some issues as well. Sayre, PA used to have quite a local KKK branch.

Redneckery goes north right through central PA and up into central NY, in my experience
