I told this at a dinner table at a Mensa meeting in Corvallis, Oregon.
Many John Does are not exactly brilliant....
There are three kinds of people:
1) Those who can count; and
2) Those who cannot count.

I have a friend in Bend, OR, and like 99.99% of all Oregonians he hates Republicans.
Will this qualify him for membership in MENSA?

SJ First, the "joke" would be understood by a VERY few people, thus for Mensa people I'm sure it is hilarious. John, I don't know where you get your info about OR being dominantly GOP but I spend several onths every other year or so there and they are extremely liberal. Without Googling, I'll bet they are a blue state rather than a red one. I love the state and the people -when they don't discuss politics - but it is far too liberal in their leanings for me. It has been infested with immigrants from CA who have literally bought out the state and brought their philosophies with them. As a matter of fact, Californians have done that throught the NW and have supplanted Texas as the most hatued state in the union. Then, when Oregonians have sold their house/land to someone from CA for an outragiously high price, they bitch and moan when they try to buy something of comparable or better value and find they can't. Payback is a bitch. |

Denny, John said 99.99% of Oregonians hate the Republicans, not like them.

Denny,
My observation was of Oregonians that HATE Republicans.
....and as an aside, we had a TV 'expert' commenting on you elections and referring repeatedly to the Republican Party as the "GREAT OLD PARTY".
So much for TV 'experts'.

So much for TV 'experts'. SJ John, GOP is frequently used as Grand Old Party. I think the emphasis these days would be on the OLD, especially old white males. |
