The last sentence says it all!!

Will we still be the Country of choice and still be America if we continue to make the changes forced on us by the people from other countries that came to live in America because it is the Country of Choice??????

Think about it!

All we have to say is, when will they do something about MY RIGHTS?


I celebrate Christmas...........but because it isn't celebrated by everyone..............we can no longer say Merry Christmas. Now it has to be Season's Greetings.

It's not Christmas vacation, it's Winter Break. Isn't it amazing how this winter break ALWAYS occurs over the Christmas holiday?

We've gone so far the other way, bent over backwards to not offend anyone, that I am now being offended. But it seems that no one has a problem with that.
This says it all!

This is an editorial written by an
American citizen, published in a
Tampa newspaper. He did quite a job; didn't he? Read on, please!

IMMIGRANTS,
NOT AMERICANS,
MUST ADAPT.
I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we
are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11,
we have experienced a surge
in patriotism by the majority
of Americans. However...... the dust from the attacks had
barely settled when the "politically correct! " crowd began complaining about
the possibility that our patriotism was offending others.

I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone who is seeking a better life by coming to ! America.
Our population is almost entirely made up of descendants of immigrants.
However, there
are a few things that those
who have recently come to
our country, and apparently some born here, need to understand.
This idea of America being a
multicultural community
has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity. As Americans......
we hav! e our ow n culture, our
own society, our own language and our own lifestyle. This culture has been developed over centuries of struggles, trials, and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.


We speak ENGLISH, not Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language.
Therefore, if you wish to become part
of our society, learn the language!

"In God We Trust" is our national motto. This is not some Christian, right wing, political slogan.. We adopted this motto because Christian men and women.......on Christian principles.............
founded this nation..... and this is clearly documented.
It is certainly appropriate to display it
on the walls of our schools.
If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as
your new home.........because
God is part of our culture.

If Stars and Stripes offend you, or
you don't like Uncle Sam, then you
should seriously consider a move
to another part of this planet.
We
are happy with our culture and have
no desire to change, and we really
don't care how you did things where
you came from.
This is
OUR COUNTRY,
our land, and our lifestyle.
Our First Amendment gives every citizen the
right to express his opinion and we
will allow you every opportunity to do so!
But once you are done complaining....... whining...... and griping....... about our flag.......
our pledge...... our national motto........or our
way of life....I highly encourage you to
take advantage of one other Great American Freedom.......

THE RIGHT TO LEAVE.

FH must be a cracker. He didn't hook anything.

The bait sucked and so did the presentation.

Does that mean you will adapt to the ways of the natives that were here for thousands of years before your ancestors even knew the world was round??

I'm really touched by that post. A tear is sliding down my cheek.

There's a nibble.......feed him some.

Good post fishead5. As you must know the post is the equivalent of dropping the soap in a shower at the local NAMBLA chapter. I hope you were prepared to be verbally assaulted. Most here won't take issue with the issues. Just the post's author.

NAMBLA shower!? Sardonicus, do know what NAMBLA stands for? I'm shocked that you admit familiarity with places like that!

National Association of Marlon Brando Look A
likes?

C'mon aunty, I can't be that bad.

OK, I'll try to get up an avatar soon that shows I am at least smokable,

Krusty'll be proud that someone else here is referencing his pet social club: NAMBLA.

pet?
Was I wrong, could it be Narth American Manatee Bull Love Association?

Wish I was computer literate so I could have an avatar.

United we stand....except liberal Democrats...
Holy [Bleeeeep!] I heard about how far left this forum was, but I had to see it to belive it. Tsk Tsk !!!

Wow a pulchitrudinous bovine barracuda. Looks pretty unstable. Udders must be under the crossed fins. I can see where dugongs come off looking like mermaids.
Something to be thankful for. I'm only "about stupid" per the bovine one. That makes me look pretty good by comparison to the mean IQ on the thread. Thank You Aunty Moo.
NAMBLA is an organization that provides the citizens of the country with a group of targets that can be converted to land fill without ACLU intervention.

It's interesting how the manipulated pawns of the radical right substitute slogans and lists of one liners for thought. They would have been perfectly at home in Mao's China, running around waving their Little Red Book.

Of course if they were into thinking they wouldn't be so easily manipulated.

i love how behind the times these conservatives really are!...... their party is tearing the country apart and they are STILL dumb enough to keep poping off at liberals with a bunch of outdated incorrect steroetypes......... the irony of a bunch of religeous wing nuts who cant understand how silly they look for throwing stones while their glass houses are breaking all around them...........welcome new neo-con nut jobs.....i hope your a litle bit deeper than the kiddie pool conservatives that normaly frequent this joint

OOOOh touchy touchy. The pinko porcine squeals are a little more shrill than usual. Lighten up girls. It'll all play out however. Looks llke the Puchasing agent Paladin may drag a few Dems down with the Republicans he fingers. OOps pardon the espresson. I don't want to get anyone excited. LOrd it's nice not being on the leading edge. You don't get dull so quick.

"LOrd it's nice not being on the leading edge."

Ignorance is bliss right??

There are still around 40% of the public who support Dumbya. Some are neocon nut jobs for sure. But a lot are just ordinary hard working folks who are being manipulated and shafted.

Many don't have time or energy to think much about it. The easiest approach to getting people's political support is to hook them on some fear or prejudice they already have.

Rove may have them convinced the Libs are after their guns. This Christmas they were conned into thinking the Libs were trying to stop them from saying "Merry Christmas". Some have been conned into believing the homosexual agenda is to take over the public schools and turn their sons into gays. Lot's of basically decent people are afraid of some damn thing or the other they have been conned into being afraid of.

But the last 40% supporting Bush aren't necessarily nut jobs. A little slow, maybe. Some of them may realize they have been had by next year. Some will never get it.

Karl Rove and his cynical cohorts have been amazing effective at taking advantage and manipulating people. Throw the corporate media into the mix and it's a wonder only 40% still back Bush. If the only "news" you get is from TV or talk radio, how the hell are you supposed to know what's going on?

Remember after 9-11 when Dumbya disappeared for a few days for scripting and rehersals? Everybody was wondering where he was and then he showed up at the World Trade Center for a scripted photo op.

It was masterfully done. Rove had a plant out in the crowd to yell "We can't hear you!"

I don't remember the exact script but then Bush comes back with something like "We can hear you! The world can hear you, and pretty soon the people that did this are going to hear.. etc.

That was masterfully scripted and staged propaganda and Bush's approval ratings shot sky high. All the people responding to the script weren't nut jobs and they aren't all nut jobs now.

Americans are pretty decent and trusting people for the most part. Maybe that's why Cheney/Bush/Rove has found it so easy to deceive and manipulate them.

Is that enough slack Dan??

Oh yeah. I knew you'd find a biter eventually. Now sit back and play it for a while.

I cant say anything but I totally agree with the post. Anybody who doesnt and actually lives here in this country has a screw loose.

P.s the only plausible reply to this thread reference the "native americans" what about the kenniwick man or the great burial mounds in the middwest or the bones found in florida? these have been suppressed. Why?

besides that if the ruskies came here or the spanish or the mexicans there wouldnt be any tribes left.

If we get many more administrations like this one the real question is who's going to be here last? Probably Cheney. By then he'll be a complete cyborg.

Well, technically, the "ruskies"(sic) were here before us, as well as the Spanish and Mexicans.

The chinks were here before all of them.

Real class TK!

You've proven many many times what a bigot you are!

Grow up.

Should I have used coolies as they were known here? You are right grow up and have a sense of humor.

Oh so you were being funny...

Do you always excuse your racism as a joke or just stupidity?

Racism is an action not a word. Your support of lefty social programs are racist as a example because they are based on the idea that people of certain races are not equal and impose action to prove that point. . Refering to someone with an invective is not racist. Specifically when humor is intended. If all races could laugh at themseleves and the sterotypes it would end a lot sooner.

"Racism is an action not a word. "

Calling someone a "chink" is an action, stupid.

Whom did I call a chink?

You want a name?

My support of lefty programs?

So you know what programs I support? Please enlighten me so I can start taking credit.

You feeble attempts to categorize people only exposes your idiocy even further. Not only do you make gross generalizations about individuals, entire races, political rivals but you then try to accuse others of doing exactly what you have been doing on this board since the sad day you joined.

And now you have even managed to rationlize your own bigotry!

But hey, as long as the humor excuse works for you... Right?

DanS

Please show me where have done either of these by the definition. I hope you never refer to someone as a Cracker again.

"rac·ism ( P ) Pronunciation Key (rszm)
n.
The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.
Discrimination or prejudice based on race. "

Waky,

You don't even know what Racisim is but you do not hesitate to call someone a racist by your imagined definition. You have been brain dead or brain washed for so long you just spew out the standard liberal line of BS.

TK

Using a derogatory reference to an entire race is racism no matter what dictionary definition you try to hide behind. Keep on rationalizing.

Life must be great when you can just call folks that don't see eye to eye with you Liberal.

Cracker

Offensive.
Used as a disparaging term for a poor white person of the rural, especially southeast United States.
Used as a disparaging term for a white person.

chink1 ( P ) Pronunciation Key (chngk)
n.
A narrow opening, such as a crack or fissure.

Wacky,

The people I know would call you a pussy before a lefty is that derogatory towards a cat or a woman?

Most likely the people you know I could give crap about...

Keep hiding

it's a racial slur, plain and simple.

The Revelation
Ch 7 Vrs 9,
...and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in there hands:

Looks like The Throne will be h*ll for racists

"Big rural difference, not to mention you'r on a fishing board where the term implies something totally different AND you know WTF "

You need to get out more if you don't know why it's called crackering a fish and the people doing it crackers.

But alas the liberal mantra "do as I say not as I do " shines like a billion watt beacon.

Next thing you know TK will be saying "red neck" is a racial slur.

I watch the Crackers at big Eddy and Tokul with the kids. People that fish blue Creek or the Cow or any terminal fishery for that matter are Crackers. The inbred locals during fall salmon runs sagging are called Crackers. I don't consider people that fish that way my friends. We where using the term long before you moved here so I won't let a tourist tell me what it means.

By these people definition SS it is. But it is ok to call white American males anything in the liberal world.

I suppose Balck entertainment television is racist? Why is it not off the air?

lol, still going 12 years later

Elvis was such a dick.

He was like Hank, only not stupid.
