WHY WOULDN'T I BE PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN?

These days there are all kinds of people who loudly proclaim that they're proud to be an American.

Given the option, who would be nuts enough not to be an American? For those who have traveled to foreign countries you know well the difference between here and there: Is there any comparison that comes close?

People get confused with not being proud to be an American and just being pissed off.

Someone once said that it was better to be pissed off than to be pissed on. Frankly, I think Americans are both pissed and they're being pissed on by our government.

I think we've all pretty much had it with what's happening in our country. We voted for the clowns in public office - the ones pulling the strings on the American way of life. If we want change we must vote carefully in the next election.

So what are you going to do about it come that first Tuesday in November: Stay home, watch TV and not vote?

Quit your bitching and go out there and do something about it.

Happy Fourth.

Um, proud to be part of a country to unlawfully and invaded Iraq under false pretense?

Proud to be part of a country that tortures it's POW's in a way that skirts the Geneva Convention?

Proud to be part of a country reviled by much of the world?

Proud to be part of a country that elected George Bush... TWICE?!

HELL NO!
