I'm not sure if this new tendency to appeal to the apparent inherent evil of Xahar in all things even remotely related to forum policing or this damn game is especially helpful.

Funny to see a speck of Buddhist yellow in Georgia. This Congressman Hank Johnson was responsible for primarying Cynthia McKinney so he's an automatic HP.

Strange, I have him on the map as a Catholic. He's a Unitarian. Sorry, let me fix that. Thanks for letting me know.

Unitarians (there's only one) are pale yellow.

My CSPAN congressional directory says "Unitarian". Wikipedia says "Unitarian Universalist (Athiest)" So, we're both right.

"Those who begin coercive elimination of dissent soon find themselves exterminating dissenters. Compulsory unification of opinion achieves only the unanimity of the graveyard. . . But freedom to differ is not limited to things that do not matter much. That would be a mere shadow of freedom. The test of its substance is the right to differ as to things that touch the heart of the existing order."
- Justice Robert Jackson WV SBE v Barnette

Hank Johnson may be the biggest idiot ever elected to congress. He feared that Guam would capsize.

Those elected to Congress in '08. I can post a map of those elected in '06, but it's very similar to this one.

He's definitely up there with Michele Bachmann.

Change all Protestant colours to Republican colours, and all Catholic/Jewish/Buddhist colours to Democrat colours and you will see, roughly, an election map.

And minus black Protestants. And there are a non-negligible number of white Protestant Democrats (see Washington state, in particular) and Catholic Republicans.
