Have you guys seen this one?
My nephew, who is not a bad kid but appears easily influenced though, as this appeared in my mailbox today. I had to reply that it was a load of tripe, especially since I consider myself a Liberal/Progressive :)
:crazy:

YES, I'M A BAD AMERICAN



I Am the Liberal-Progressives Worst Nightmare.

I am an American.


I am a Master Mason and believe in God...

I ride Harley Davidson Motorcycles and believe in American products.

I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some
Liberal governmental functionary be it Democratic or Republican!


I'm in touch with my feelings and I like it that way!

I think owning a gun doesn't make you a killer, it makes you a smart American.



I think being a minority does not make you noble or victimized,
and does not entitle you to anything.. Get over it!



I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac, do it in English.


I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God when and
where they want to.





My heroes are John Wayne, Babe Ruth, Roy Rogers, and Willie G.
Davidson that makes the Awesome Harley Davidson Motorcycles.



I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor.

I know wrestling is fake and I don't waste my time watching or
arguing about it.

I've never owned a slave, or was a slave, I haven't burned any
witches or been persecuted by the Turks and neither have you!

So, shut up already.

I believe if you don't like the way things are here, go back to where
you came from and change your own country!

This is AMERICA ..We like it the way it is!

If you were born here and don't like it you are free to move to any
Socialist country that will have you.

I want to know which church is it exactly where the Reverend Jesse
Jackson preaches, where he gets his money, and why he is always part
of the problem and not the solution.



Can I get an AMEN on that one?





I also think the cops have the right to pull you over if you're
breaking the law, regardless of what color you are.

And, no, I don't mind having my face shown on my drivers license.

I think it's good.... And I'm proud that 'God' is written on my money.





I think if you are too stupid to know how a ballot works, I don't
want you deciding who should be running the most powerful nation in
the world for the next four years.

I dislike those people standing in the intersections trying to sell
me stuff or trying to guilt me into making 'donations' to their cause.

Get a Job and do your part!


I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child, it takes
two parents.

I believe 'illegal' is illegal no matter what the lawyers think..


I believe the American flag should be the only one allowed in AMERICA !






If this makes me a BAD American, then yes, I'm a BAD American.

2. Now, why would a dyed in the wool liberal post that kind of drivel in entirety
without including their pithy reply? Waste of good DU bandwidth, unless the object might be wider dissemination?

12. Oh, I see
Here is my response;

Hey, as a liberal-progressive I think this is a load of tripe. Why isn’t Rush Limbaugh mentioned here? He wants the current President to fail and encourages others to believe as he does. If the author believes everyone can pray to their God when and where they want to, I suggest he start doing so. This little diatribe is NOT an example of “loving your neighbor as yourself” it’s more like a huge steaming load of horse manure dumped on your kitchen table and labeled as food.

Feel better now? :shrug:

11. Psst.! That's one of the secrets the repugs aren't allowed to know.


Liberals love wrestling because it allows them to worship the "New World Order" in disguise.

Psst!

8. Here's what I would say
You may not want to be so blunt with someone you love, though! :)

Yes, dear, it's nice that you're an American. But if you think you are my worst nightmare, you need a serious ego check! Where on earth did you get the idea you are that important?

Just for the record, I don't care what your religion is as long as I'm not forced to be part of it. Congrats on that mason thing, but, again, not really something most liberals care about. We wish you well in your career, whatever it is, as long as you do no harm to others.

It's nice that you don't hate the rich. Hatred consumes people. Pitying the poor would be a little condescending, but you might try sympathizing with them a little. Perhaps it will be easier for you when someone you love is in an accident and ends up with medical bills that break them even though they are insured.

I'm glad you think people who were born here and don't like the way things are going can just move to some other country. Bravo! Be sure to pass that info along to those teabaggers when they come up for air. Don't forget the Fox Noise Anger Team - they could use some time under some other country's sun, too.

Why do you care where Jesse Jackson goes to church? More, what makes you think your odd preoccupation with Reverend Jackson makes you a nightmare to us rather than the sad, impotent figure we actually see in you?

It's nice that you support the police when they are performing their job as they are supposed to. So do I. See? Not really very nightmarish, is it?

I do know how a ballot works, thank you, but it's nice to know you oppose those idiots in Florida who didn't know and therefore created a ballot that was nearly impossible for reasonable people to punch. Good on ya', kid!

I already have a job, thank you very much. I do find it amusing, though, that so many of you on the right assume we're all out of work at the same time that you complain about how "elite" we are. Frankly, sweetie, I AM elite when rated alongside you lot, but that just gives you a goal to work toward. Get to it!

I'm sorry you are so hostile to Girl Scouts, high school students raising money to fill the gaps left by tax dodgers, etc. You are not required to buy any of what they are selling, though some of the cookies are pretty tasty.

I'm glad you think it takes two parents to raise a child! Perhaps as you get older, you and your friends who believe similarly will change the fact that the red states have a significantly higher divorce rate than the blue.

And since "illegal is illegal no matter what," I look forward to seeing you campaign to put Rush Limbaugh, George W Bush, Dick Cheney, and their lawbreaking compatriots behind bars.

Thanks for writing, darling. Say hi to you mom for me!

Love, Auntie

15. Tell him Harley-Davidson is about to cut 400 MORE jobs...
...and that John Wayne was just an action movie actor, like Tom Cruise.

It makes you a xenophobic, racist, ignorant asshole who happens to be an American.

on edit:

And a shill for Harley-Davidson.
