One of the largest and longest-lengthed rivers on the continent of North America. It runs from the city of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania all the way to the very southern tip of Illinois at a town called Cairo, whereupon it pours out into the Mighty Mississippi River.
It covers a length of well over 300 miles and creates the northern border for Kentucky and West Virginia, separating them from the rest of Midwest. This major waterway has been the lifesource for the people who have resided in this large Ohio River Valley since the dawn of the 1800s, and the Native Americans who predominantly occupied the region beforehand. The riverboat traffic on the Ohio as well as the major freshwater source was the number one reason for the development of such huge cities and large towns along the Ohio River. See Owensboro, Evansville, Cincinnati, Huntington, and Louisville.

The Ohio River as been used in trafficking supplies of natural resources like coal to other areas, as well as troop transports during the War of 1812 and the Civil War.

Get the Ohio River mug.A real man or woman; a true American patriot. Contrary to popular liberal belief, Red Staters (aka Republicans) are actually more open-minded and tolerant of things than they are given credit for. To begin, the overwhelming majority of them are NOT racist. There are tons of Democrats who are racist, however. (Keep this in mind, it was Democrats in the past who promoted mistreatment of black people, and wanted to keep slavery alive. There are many white democrats today who still despise blacks. Yes, it is TRUE.)
Next, we believe in women's rights. We believe that women have every right to leave the home, get a college degree, become successful and get a job, etc. To say otherwise about our stand on women's rights is BULLSHIT. Also, Red Staters (or Republicans) do NOT go around committing hate crimes on racial minorities, homos, lesbians, or non-Christians. (Just so you know, I have fellow devoutly-Republican friends who are ATHEISTS!!! AND, I don't criticize them for it, either.) You people fail to realize that there are millions of Republicans who are actually racial minorities. These include asians, Native Americans, Hispanics, subcontinient Asian Indians, and even a few black people. There are also Jewish Republicans. Yes, there are; there is plenty of evidence to support the fact that there are people of every single one of those previously-mentioned groups within the Republican Party.

The Red Staters are attacked and accused of things that most of them are not or that they haven't ever done. Don't call us brain-washed; you people all seem to believe the stereotypes about us, without having any evidence to back it up (and you call yourselves free-thinkers.) You all just blindly follow the words and commentary of figures like Ted Kennedy, Diane Feinstein, John Kerry, and Michael Moore.

Get the Red Stater mug.This is the formerly-largest city in the great state of Ohio, with the metropolis' population currently being at around 470,000 people. It is here where there are three major/national sports teams: Cleveland Cavaliers (NBA), Cleveland Browns (NFL), and Cleveland Indians (MLB). Cleveland has been voted as an All-American city five times.
There is a Federal Bank Reserve building located here. In addition, C-town also has numerous corporate headquarters, including GE (General Electric). It was in Cleveland that the term rock n roll was coined by a DJ during the early 1950s. Not surprisingly, the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame and Musuem is also located here, built partially on the Cleveland shore, and part of it just above the coast of Lake Erie.
This major U.S. city is also home to one of the tallest and coolest buildings in the World: The Key Tower; a massive skyscraper that towers over downtown Cleveland at 947 feet and 57 stories high. There are also some REALLY OLD high-rise buildings here, including: Holiday Inn Express (built 1896, 15 stories), the Rockefeller Building (built 1905, 17 stories), and Metropolitan Bank Center (built 1915, 15 stories).

Get the Cleveland, OH mug.The last name of the lovely, first black woman Secretary of State. Condoleeza Rice can be referred to also as the "Third most powerful person in the US Government", as she is just under President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney.

Get the Rice mug.This lovely lady was brought into this unfortunate situation a decade and a half ago. Now it is the liberals and the asshole husband of Terri, Michael Schiavo who are allowing and even supporting the murder of this disabled, brain-damaged (but NOT braindead) woman.
She was a devout Catholic, so the tens of millions of other American Christians and God are seriously concerned about this horrible act against humanity. There is no doubt about it, God is MAD, especially since this is one of his believing children! If Jesus were walking around today, she wouldn't be in this condition (which Michael Schiavo put her in, by the way) because he could and DID perform miracles. It's not our fault, or hers that she is in this condition and therefore unable to please that bastard husband of hers. What's worse, that adulterer has been going out and cheating on her for all of these long years. Some dedicated husband he is, eh?

God is not pleased by these inhumane acts being taken against Terri Schiavo. The people responsible for this will surely pay in time.

Get the Terri Schiavo mug.The latest, most irritating slang term today that is sweeping over parts of the US like a plague. Only rednecks, cowboys, stars of The Blue Collar Comedy Tour, The Sons of Confederate Veterans, and other total freaks say this. I will be relieved when this idiotic phrase is finally burned out, hopefully in the next two years.
I think the fact that they named that "movie" the Blue Collar Comedy Tour is quite insulting to actual middle and lower-class citizens who fall under the Blue Collar status and live in Northern states and cities. Now many morons out there will expect EVERY blue-collar person being like those Southern, redneck-talkin jackasses on that movie.

Get the Git Er Done mug.The 2004 presidential candidate who, if he had been elected, would have been:
-the ugliest American president, beating out either Abe Lincoln or Zachory Taylor.
-The first non-Christian president.
-The first president to betray his country and protest it's military efforts.
-The most cowardly president that would take no action whatsoever against terrorist attacks on American soil.
-The most divisive president that led to a second civil war in America; this time it would be a military conflict between Red and Blue states.

Thank the Lord that John Kerry is not the president. Otherwise, I would currently be dead, most likely after a plane with an Arab terrorist crashed into the Key Tower and the building fell on me in the streets.

Get the John Kerry mug.
