I have to tell you guys, I'm not on the left. I used to be on the right. It's right there on the web page if you look. You know back when republicans were for: Privacy, Peace, no foreign entanglement, low spending, no surveillance, freedom of religion.
None of that seems to apply now. The point of the maps is that smart, decent folk have been voting this way for years. Being tolerant (a religious value) used to mean you were in the party of lincoln. Now it means you are in the other party. Likewise segregationists used to be democrats, now they are republicans. This is why the maps are divided in "red" and "blue" values not democrat and republican. Religious morals are more than pushing the word jesus down someone's throat at a mall. The people haven't changed the parties have.
The maps are tongue in cheek, but the point is you don't have to be more popular, you just have to be on the right side.
Sorry if the maps offend, but try keep you humor intact.
