  1. My husband is now refusing to do any contract work in the Twin Cities or their suburbs.

  2. There's a community of Somalis 15 miles from my house. ONE corporation brought them in as cheap workers. The rest of us were never consulted about it. Thanx, Clinton!

  3.  @nodakrome  We've sworn off the Cities, too, from the NW Wisconsin side. We were staying at the Foshay a few years ago, just for fun, and blundered into a very seedy district on foot. Wilder and less entertaining than the old Hennepin Avenue red light district. Not entertaining at all, in fact. And the Metro was full of Somalis who didn't bother paying car fare. I can only imagine how depressing downtown is now

  4.  @BAFFLED-u4o  Clinton started Snowgadishu; Obama merely augmented it.

  5.  Richard Miller  Obama only continued Clinton's folly. I live 100 miles east of the Cities, and in 1994 or so, a neighboring town with a turkey processing plant became 17% Somali overnight.

  6. Get ready for the Duke of Minneapolis, or some such shit--chandeliers on his car hood, and all.

  7. I thought the Little Apple was wonderful, when I first visited it in the 1970s. But it has slid, and even when it was a decent place, I was always glad to leave to go home. The traffic and sprawl was bullshit.

  8.  71SgtMom  Q.Why do they play football on astroturf in Iowa? A. So the cheerleaders won't graze. Q. Why doesn't Minnesota slide into Lake Superior? A. Because Iowa sucks. We in Wisconsin mercilessly mock Illinois, too, as we rake in FIB tourist bucks.

  9.  @teawithme709  Probably you do! Barron, Wisconsin. It has a mosque or two, now. Back in 1996, I accompanied a mentally retarded relative to my brother's place in Alaska where he had a store where one of his employees was Inuit, with very dark skin. My mentally disabled companion asked, "Is he from Barron?"

  10.  71SgtMom  Too funny! I was married to a guy from the Iron Range, and he could never contain his contempt for all things Iowan. The first time we went down I-35 through Des Moines, he kept mocking the condition of the road and complaining that the whole state smelt like pig manure.
