NYers getting mad at Cruz's "New York values" comment.

I knew what he meant. Other people who aren't all up in their city pride knew what he meant. The fact that NYers are committing themselves in explaining how diverse NYC is in terms of a voting bloc is amusing. I know that a parts of Brooklyn vote (D) while others vote (R). I know that The Bronx, Queens as well as Staten Island vote (R). It's Manhattan that dominates the politics. That's what Cruz meant.

This uproar about Cruz's "New York values" comment and the media coverage of the NE blizzard proves what Cruz meant: self-importance, arrogance and hypocritical. You can shit on middle America and the South but you can't shit on the NE, especially NYC. That's the shitty standard put on the rest of the country if you aren't on the West Coast.

Well, here's my message to NYC and DC -

Could Cruz been more accurate in his phrasing? Yea. To calm the living indignant out of the all the New Yorkers. I understood him. I knew exactly what he meant.

JV winter team

When people in DC freak out about the upcoming winter vortex that's going to hit them and they think they got "winter cred" ... Psshhh. Try to survive Chiberia.

EDIT: In the DC metro, some did not mind the snow.

A small group of soldiers will brave this weekend's historic snowstorm to stand guard at the Tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington National Cemetery. 

"These guys will be out in the snow, no matter what," said Major Russell Fox, a spokesman for the Army's Old Guard, according to ABC News. 

Tomb Sentinels from the Army's 3rd Infantry Regiment's Old Guard have guarded the memorial — regardless of the weather — for 24 hours a day, 365 days a year since April 6, 1948, ABC reported. 

"A lot of the guys are looking forward to this [storm] and kind of excited about it," Fox added.

Fox said the soldiers will be shoveling snow from the plaza so it will not impede their duty.
