I've never been to Austin but I've smoked a lot of pot that's come from there, and it's really good stuff!

Well I'll be sure to try and make sure they aren't reelected. Please list any member of the House you think of.

The other guy doesn't even want to go to Austin because it's too liberal for him. I feel sorry for that guy.

They say stupider people are on average happier, so don't feel too bad for him.

I won't deny the condescending part, since I very much am, but I'd say I'm pretty happy at this point. I do think there is very much a relationship between intelligence and happiness though.

Anyone who thinks Austin is comparable to a sewer, what can I say. Fools rush in where angels fear to tread?

Austin liberals =/= California liberals, although that might not be true in the future. I'd honestly rather either one over a delta liberal.

they will, just look at what they did to Colorado. Luckily, Texas has gerrymandered its congressional districts in such a way the conservatives will continue to hold power for a very, very long time. The result: good fiscal policy to go hand in hand with idiotic blue laws. Meh, take the good with the bad I suppose.

What are you worried will happen to you in Austin? It's a great, clean city with a lot of cool shite to do and I've never been engaged in some kind of political kerfuffle when I visit....some of you are idiots over this shite...but your loss and Austin's gain.

As it has been stated many times on this board, California more than pays their way. They subsidies La, Ms and Al et.al. Their financial problems are theirs. Their business environment has created more world class corps than any state - and we all have benefitted greatly from it. You should be grateful they put up with our mooching asses.

Austin is great. if every state had one city like Austin with same ideals and demographics, while the rest of the US states operated like the rest of Texas, this country would be a well oiled machine. The Austin liberal utopia's are few and far between, and more often a burden to the taxpayer. The ideals and demographics are slightly more complex as well.

FIFY. I grew up in texass, and the state - in particular houston and dallas are just fricking atrocious places. Not an ounce of uniqueness to them, and quite boring. Plus all the woman look plastic, and the gov't is authoritarian. I would rather live just about anywhere else in the country over texass.

Guys like Tim (and there are millions of them) don't get this.. Tim is the guy that will drink mainstream beer his whole life, and never get into the true unique glory of great microbrews. Tim is the guy who prefers a chain restaurant to a place filled with creativity and people unique to a certain area. Tim is the guy who wants the entire world to turn into a strip mall of Longhorn Steahouses, Applebees, Lowe's, and Wal-Marts. The saddest part is he is drawing his beliefs from a lifetime of living in a certain reality, he's never ventured to the other side to see if it has anything to offer.

My town is flaming liberal by Austin standards and It doesn't bother me a bit. Actually gives me a great source of amusement. You generally find people like yourself regardless of where you live.

Your post is just as dramatic as the OP you are lamenting.
