9. ????????????

What freepers, those are the freaks of nature... the ones who
have NO CLUE what the Constitution TRULY stands for, or have ANY
respect for the rule of law.

They need to be reminded that they really hate half of the country

America hasn't changed only the assholes running it! This too shall pass.

5. I used to be proud...

Then there was Bush.

I used to want to go overseas
and Bush ruined it for me.
I used to like debate about policies
and the right ruined that for me.
I used to be a proud American
and the GOP ruined it for me.

17. That song makes me gag.

On a related note, I am a fireworks nut, but I refuse to go to "community" fireworks displays because I know that they'll play that stupid song!!

As Bill the Cat would say, "Ack!!"

8. I used to be and I trust that I will be someday

right now I'm staying home a lot so I don't have to make excuses for my country.

10. Recently, yes, I'm VERY proud to be an American.

I am probably the most unpatriotic guy around, but at the county Democratic Convention, where I was a delegate, I saw lots of folks who were there to take back the power!

Whooooeeeeeee! as Howard Dean said, rightly, I might add.

11. I'm still proud

to be an American. I proud to be a veteran. I'm proud to be a union member. Even though I cannot control what any of these groups do. I'm still optimistic. I'll do what i can. Please do what you can to help.

12. not while Bush is "War-President"

15. I don't know if I'd say "proud". I was born here, hence I am American.

I didn't do anything to be here, I didn't immigate, didn't have to pass any sort of citizenship test or anything. Because I happened to be born to two people who lived in America, I ended up American.

16. I am proud, but *MAN* do I hate that song (warning: wild tangent)

When I was in the service (80s) they played that Lee Greenwood song at some function like every other day. I never got so sick of a song in my life (and yes, I'm including "It's a Small World").

Couldn't they just play "God Bless America" ?!?!?! That's a fine tune! Or "America the Beautiful."

So many great songs, and they pull that chickenhawk's song out every chance they get.



Sorry. Back to your regularly scheduled poll/thread.

18. I'm glad you included the third option.
