That’s East Virginia as opposed to West Virginia…
I remember people in college with me who thought Virginia and West Virginia were the same state.
My roommate didn’t bring a winter coat to school in Baltimore, because she thought it was in the ‘south’!
Now, there is an argument for a third state, Northern Virginia…,(DC suburbs partially occupied by the Army of the Republic during the Civil War) .. but the state really has 5 distinct cultures:
Northern VA, Central, Southside, SW Virginia, and Shenandoah Valley.
Most of the land east of the Chesapeake bay is in Maryland. That little piece of VA on the eastern shore is part of Southside.
Given Belfry’s appearance, I think he is styled after certain VA and WVA politicians, some who are no longer with us.

Nabu, you hit the nail on the head. As long as the press asks the “Do you still beat your wife” type of questions it’s not going to get any better.

Does it snow much on the “Eastern Shore” or is that Belfry’s dandruff?

And yes, it snows in Virginia, though snow is less likely in Southside.

The first panel should have started, “This storm is the worst SNOW JOB….
or hows about:
worst FALLOUT…
or even:
worst COVERUP…
it all seems to apply.
