I left in 1971. I hate New York liberals, HATE! I just can't wrap my head around their truculent politics. It's almost like they know how wrong they are so their vitriol is the poison pill they try to shove down our throats to get us to agree with them. Idiots! Especially the ones who are immigrants from other states, bastards. I was born and raised in New York. I left in 1971.

First of all, 700 isn't many. MM could get that many sent in an hour if she chose. 700-1 should tell him something too, since it obviously reflects the percentage of conservatives (who make up at least half the general population) who read his paper.
