Gulf of Mexico? Try 'Gulf of America'
By NBC's Domenico Montanaro
First, there were Freedom Fries.
So, of course, it makes sense that someone somewhere would try this – renaming the “Gulf of Mexico,” what else – the “Gulf of America.”
That’s exactly what Mississippi state Rep. D. Stephen Holland, a Democrat, is proposing.

Hopefully this idiot doesn't get word that 4 out of 5 great lakes owe their names to native americans.

02-10-2012 08:28 PMThe guy who has the least amount of coastline wants to change it?
My choice is "The Gulf of Florida and those other guys"

I guess he is overcompensating for having a tiny coastline

Gulf of Runaground,Puddle of Mexico, when are they coming back for that thing! I'd much rather have the Atlantic on both sides of the Keys. I feel bad, but i won't even drink with people from the gulf side (unless there're buyin) . Then again most keys people won't drink with Key Largo people on either side!

What is this word "Buying".....it is foreign to us lower Keys residents.
