    Harder to find someone who voted for...

    When I was in the Peace Corps, back in the day, I got a letter from my father in California a year after Reagan was elected. He wrote, "It's harder to find a person who voted for Reagan here now than it was to find a Nazi in post-war Germany." I guess it was mostly about Reagan's saying "Seen one redwood, ya seen 'em all." He was a big supporter of the logging industry that decimated the redwood forests we used to go camping in.

    I guess Texans who voted for Bush are going through some of the same thing re: his presidency.
