I think we need to stop talking about "Red State vs. Blue State"...

...and characterizing the conservative/progressive issues spectrum as red to blue.

And certainly, I think all the teevee networks and media outlets need to change their color coding.

NEW RULEZ, PEOPLE!

Democratic candidates, labels, issues, positions, statements, etc.: BLUE background, typeface, etc.

Republican candidates, labels, issues, positions, statements, etc.: ORANGE background, typeface, etc.

As in "The new orange face of conservatism/the GOP/etc."

Karma's such a beautiful, beautiful bitch.

amusedly,
Bright

Blue birds are called "pajaros conservadores"

Red birds are called "pajaros liberales".

I think we got it backwards here in the USA.

A little birdie told me.
