Yep, just two wings of the same bird... (grin)
ps I was looking at the Sunflower (and sumbitches, nod to Josie Wales) State wikipage and damned if y'all don't have a Democratic governor and Lt. I hope things are looking better since Brownback and co. ran your ship of state on the rocks and burnt it to the waterline. Y'all are tough, I'll give you that.
All the best, Bob

The first US Civil War started here.
I'm doing what I can to prevent the second one.
Brownback did not have any detrimental effect on my life. I guess he wrecked the education system, but I have no children.
My state taxes have always been fairly low, one year when Brownback was in office, the State sent me a second tax refund check of $14. I had made a mistake and over paid. I was floored by that.
His biggest 'gift' was concealed carry of firearms. Previously, a citizen would have to pay the Sheriff's office, take a training course, and then get a permit. Brownback stripped that authority from the counties. The local sheriff would not have given me a permit.
I'm a registered Democrat, but don't follow party politics. I like Patton's quote; "Republican, Democrat, Nazi...it's all the same...it's just another political party".
