Great America Panel... All-American New Year... Great Americans of 2010...

Where do they get off deciding what's American?

5. I always wonder if Hannity has ever been seen in public without
a pen between his third and fourth fingers. I have never seen him without one, but then I have often seen contented babies with a passifier in their mouthes. There might be something there, might not.

6. Their whole point is to conflate "American" with "right wing", "conservative" etc.
The implication, sometimes stated explicitly, is that the rest of us are "un-American".
