The Snow effect 
BBC: “US Treasury Secretary John Snow has reiterated the US commitment to a strong dollar, as the greenback hit another record low against the euro.”
This (purple) land is my land…
Eric Folkerth (a perfect name for a folk singer) has written a song in response to the many observations about purple America. A sample of the lyrics:
| |
We all live in a Purple Land, |
| |
Every woman, child and man, |
| |
So don’t get too proud. Don’t misunderstand, |
| |
‘Cause this great nation is just one big Purple Land.
