"If you hate this country so much, LEAVE IT!!" -- Time to answer back!

[stevietheman]

As the reich-wing cretins become increasingly desperate this year, they will use more and more attacks on the patriotism of those who are really highly patriotic dissenters who believe our nation and its Constitution are under attack by the Criminal Bush Regime.

So, this is a thread for us to come up with good comebacks to the subject attack.

Here's one I came up with today...

Nut: If you hate this country so much, why don't you leave it!?

Me: No. I'm staying permanently to ensure that your America is thoroughly destroyed.

Your turn. :)

ON EDIT: grammar fix

[grytpype]

1. "I like this country fine, it's assholes like YOU that I hate!"

[flyingfysh]

2. my response would be:

My people were here first (I have Cherokee ancestry). You leave it.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

4. Aho!

My husband could say the same thing (he also has Cherokee ancestry).

[smtpgirl]

16. good come back

My ancestors were Blackfoot Indian.

We are the true natives.

I think I'll stay too

[Jeffersons Ghost]

28. does a Creek Great-Grandmother count? can I stay?

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

3. Who says I hate this country?

I support the Constitution of the United States, which IS what everyone, from the President on down, pledges to preserve, protect, and defend against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Speaking of which, why do you hate the Constitution?

[driver8]

6. Exactly! My response as well.

One of the freepers on my veteran's board and I argue all the time about Shrub and the Constitution. He got all bent out of shape when I told him that junior uses the Constitution to wipe his ass. He sent me a copy of the Constitution and I told him that he should have sent it to Bush, as I don't think he has ever seen it.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

5. "Love it or leave it" Redux. Same shit, different "war".

[Mr_Spock]

7. "Ya gotta love our freedoms huh?" "It's 'Merica, love it or leave it..."

"...if my free speech bothers you so much, you are welcome to leave"

I just use their words against them - there is NO defense to this offense :rofl:

[sweetheart]

8. So, i left, now i'm back

as an undead pissed off ghost who will not shrug off, nor surrender
this blue blooded soul.

I hope everyone who's left, logs back in and lets them know what
they really think. Its about time we were honest with each other,
and if it takes leaving the borders to be that, then so be it.

[existentialist]

9. answering hatred with hatred doesn't work, a better answer is

I love this country. That's why I'm doing every thing that I can to SAVE it.

[stevietheman]

20. but... they _expect_ a soft response.

I was thinking in terms of using responses that will surprise them. But alas, to each his/her own.

[PA Democrat]

10. My response: Do you criticize your kids when they do wrong?

Then, why don't you give them up for adoption if you hate then so much?

[bullimiami]

11. If THEY love america so much maybe they should stop destroying it.

[Bouncy Ball]

12. I like to use the short and simple "fuck off."

Works quite well.

[Mythsaje]

13. I answered this the other day...ahead of time, apparently.

:evilgrin:

Yes, we hate YOUR President... live with it

For eight years we watched vicious attacks on a first family that had done nothing but try to serve the American people and bring justice to the world. Sure, they weren't perfect, but who is?

But now, while we watch what is arguably the WORST President in the history of our country shit all over our Constitution, the Geneva Convention, and everything it means to be an American, the only thing you have to say is to call us Bush haters.

Well, no shit. We've been "misled" into war, participated in the slaughter of countless civilians, sent 2500 hundred of our soldiers to the Great Beyond, practically crippled our armed forces, discovered that our President considers himself above any act of Congress, and are now being spied upon IN OUR OWN FUCKING COUNTRY while all too many people shrug and say "so what?."

What's to hate?

You people make me sick. Every one of you Bush apologists is a hypocritical gasbag of monumental proportions. If a Democratic government did 1/10 of these things, you'd be up in arms. Hell, you'd be calling for mass assassinations.

All we want is his impeachment. Clinton lied about sexual indiscretions. Bush lies about EVERYTHING. Yet you seem to consider him above reproach.

What's wrong with you people cannot be fixed. Therapy would be like a bandaid placed over a knife-wound to the belly. We used to think you were simply deluded. Maybe a bit confused.

No, I think now that you're clinically insane. Too crazy to be allowed to vote. You'd vote for a rabid pitbull if he could be taught to speak like a human being. As long as he mouthed the right catch-phrases.

Sure, maybe Bush wouldn't be a bad guy to sit down and have a beer with. But YOU would be picking up the tab. Or maybe you could just defer it to your children and grandchildren. That's the gist of his economic policy, after all. Play now, pay later.

You call us traitors because we don't like Bush?

Fuck you. Look in the goddam mirror. EVERY principle on which this country was founded is but a hurdle for this asshole to jump. He has about as much respect for America as he did for the population of New Orleans when Katrina was bearing down on them. Which is is to say... NOT THE SLIGHTEST BIT.

"America...Love it or leave it." Remember when that was thrown in the faces of those who dared to stand up to oppressive government in the past? We do. You know what? We know who REALLY hates America and all she stands for. YOU PEOPLE. Every last one of you who still think Bush walks on water and turns water into wine. Why don't YOU just get the hell on a boat and get the fuck out of our country?

We don't want you. We don't need you. And we're sick and tired of listening to your stupid excuses.

We don't care where you go. Just go somewhere where you can't fuck up our country anymore. And take your dumbass President with you. We'll even throw you a going-away party.

Bon Voyage, you stupid bastards. Write when you find work.

17. Oh I saw this the other day and just love it!

Absolutely brilliant rant. Kudos kudos kudos!!!

[stevietheman]

22. Yes, that was a great rant! Thanks for that. n/t

14. "When, specifically, did I say I hated this country?"

Redstone

[tlsmith1963]

15. I Like Your Comeback

I'd love to destroy *their* America!:evilgrin:

Tammy

[AnnieBW]

18. I'm Staying To Piss Off People Like You

Or, for myself, "I *knew* my grandparents that fought to come to this country. I'm damned if I'm going to let their dream turn into a nightmare."

[Yollam]

19. I did leave.

Living in the US is no longer worth the personal sacrifices anymore. $1100 for a little dental work (and that's WITH the "insurance")? Enough already. There were a lot of non-political reasons, too, but it's too hard to raise a family on a regular income in the US anymore.

[radwriter0555]

21. I don't hate America. I fear what America has become, and worse what IS

to come under the current regime.

[Fozzledick]

23. Earth! Love it or leave it!

(My favorite retort to right-wing shots at environmentalism or internationalism)

Hey, if you don't like this planet why don't you go back where you came from! :evilgrin:

[Jeffersons Ghost]

29. best yet! Fozzledick has it so far.

[mwooldri]

24. My answer: I *chose* to come here.

As an immigrant I can say that. Eventually I'll be a citizen (at one point) but really...

The reason why I picked here was because it was a darned sight cheaper to live here than in the UK. The reason why I stay here is because I do kinda like it here. The reason why I fight for what I do is because I kinda like things the way they are (or were, pre 2000).

And in any case if things really do 'go south', my family has a ticket out of here. The nutcases more than likely don't have a way out, they just have to hide in their nuclear bunker (you mean, they haven't built their nuclear bunker yet? oops...) Let me show them where to find one...



Mark.

[johnaries]

25. I love America, it's the current leadership that's trying to destroy

the Constitution and everything that America stands for that I hate. I hate them BECUASE they're destroying America!

[JCMach1]

26. No Problem Nut, but I'll still vote and even better I won't have

to pay taxes to fund your bogus war or your retirement!


MUHAMUHA!

[Jeffersons Ghost]

27. when I got told that a few months back...

I said well if it's the old line that "majority rules" YOU need to leave not me because polls show YOUR NAZI IDEAS are in the minority now!

[Initech]

30. "I love my country. I just hate the people who RUN it."

A very deep, psychotic fucking hatred for the people who run it, but still... :evilgrin:

[Sabriel]

31. "Hey, back off! I'm trying to!"

"We're just a little slow in applying for Permanent Resident status. We'll let you know when we hear something."

There. That oughtta fix 'em.

[kentuck]

32. And if you love an incompetent asshole more than your country...

then why the hell don't you leave?!!!
