survey was very interesting, but it
might also reveal that Americans (like the English) don’t know much
history.

Good work on the Hear the Issues site, it is interesting. Could you
please get more statistics on world or other countries matters. I am
from Australia and although I know you are from the US and know the US
will be the target of most of your statistics I would like it if you put
more about other countries or all the countries.

It is the most NON-biased article on this issue I have read in ages!

While it's an interesting analysis [IQ
Factor], it seems flawed in this way: the electorate was not divided
so much by state as by region. That is, urban areas tended to go for
Kerry and rural areas tended to go for Bush. Assigning an entire state
to one candidate or another attributes 100% of that state's score to the
candidate, an assumption that the votes do not bear out. This is a very
interesting site. I appreciate your work.

Comments: Regarding the age effect of "Parents
and States," I think that the older one gets, the more one wants to
live in an environment where one feels at home one way or the other. The
general political climate of one's neighbors should be a candidate for
the "at home" factor.

Comments: I want to personally thank you for making an effort to
have a better understanding of gay marriage. Most people don't take the
time to get the facts. Most people are happy to make short sighted and
ignorant judgments on almost no hard facts. I see this issue as my life.
People that call this a "political issue" should take a moment to think
about the humanity behind the "issue". We are real human beings fighting
for what should be rightfully ours, EQUALITY. I believe I can speak for
most gay and lesbians when I say this: We are not looking for special
rights, only equal rights.

referred to as Latter-Days Saints, and not as Mormons. This is for the
same reason that African-Americans don't like being called n*****s
[censored]. They are both terms used by the respective persecutors.

Sadly your profile of states are adhock. I'm always interested in
information like this [Safest
States], simply because its amusing. But with that in mind. the top
2 on your list Appleton, and Fond Du Lac Wisconsin last voted for a
Democrat in the sixties with JFK. So, Is it really BLUE? but hey, don't
let facts get in the way..

Comments: Your rants are very humorous. I love to read your
fictional stories. I have always found junk science and twisted
statistics to be very comical. Have you ever considered a career in
comedy? You are truly the proverbial used car salesman of bloggers. I
hope you never get discouraged and continue to maintain your enthusiasm
about your bend. It’s good for laughs for the rest of us. Two big thumbs
up!

Comments: Your study is flawed. First of all, you assumed that
the stock market is a function of the party in power. It is possible
that the party in power is a partial function of stock market. The data
you used and presented, while I do not doubt it is correct, it does not
even come close to describing what party is better for the stock market.
I'm sorry but using one variable to try to accurately describe the
stock market is irresponsible and lazy. I'll trust the brokers and
traders who study the market for a living and do it professionally as
opposed to some guy who runs a website and put got his data from
scratch, whatever that means. [Refers to

does not equal causation. I recommend that you explore how logic would
affect the projected results of your study and rephrase your analysis to
avoid the misperceptions that you currently convey. [Refers to
