When you think about it, this "map" summarizes exactly what the liberal/left is about: while they run around alarmed at alleged discrimination against moslems, and get their panties in a twist over their hyper-regard for the supposed civil rights of islamist child killers in Gitmo who would slit their throats without a second thought, they spit on their countrymen who live in what they call "flyover country", and christians - one of the last groups against which it is PC to express raw bigotry. Further, the map underlines their greater identification with foreign countries than their own, something that became increasingly obvious with events such as the Dixie Chicks comments, Michael White Uncle Tom going to Cannes to receive the palm d'or from the french, and Lurch's general admiration for the french and the U.N.
I heard it stated on CSPAN covering a seminar on the black vote in the election that Bush got 16% of the black vote in Ohio - a huge percentage increase over 2000. Could this have made the the difference in the outcome of the election? When I grew up in a black urban area of Ohio, it was well-known that there were two people you didn't badmouth, no matter what else you said: Martin Luther King and Jesus. When Bush spoke at a conference of the Urban League, I notice his reference to Almighty God got the loudest applause from the largely black audience. Another fact I heard on the networks is that the hispanic vote trended toward Bush this time, the opposite of what the LME pundits said would happen. Hispanics, like blacks, take their religion seriously.
Someone in the RNC should preserve the "Jesusland" map and also trace down it's source. The map is a kind of "gem", as someone here said, but not in the way that they think. It crystallizes succinctly the sneering elitist arrogance that is part of what has cost dems two presidential elections in a row. It should be used in election advertisements in rural swing states like Iowa in midterm elections, to remind the voters just exactly what they're getting when they vote democrat.

The jesusland map actually may be on the surface about humor, but it DOES reveal the attitude that helps y'all lose elections, and I hope you keep it up!
