Our country has done some awful things. It has left poor people to rot in a hurricane. This country outsources American jobs to save a buck. There is a large population of people who dont have health care, but in Canada they have free healthcare. I just watched Oprahs series about schools in crisis and how awful some schoos have become. When we evacuated Americans out of Lebanon we had people signing promissary notes to pay back the ticket home when other countries evacuated their citizens no questions asked. We are a nation get fatter, dumber, greedier and more dangerous. We are the biggest producers of pollution, we are the largest drug consuming nation in the world. Democrats and Republicans have not solved any of these problems. So how can you be proud of this country? One story in particular that has really pissed me off was the HBO special on a animal humane rescue operation that showed how awful people treat dogs. It was sick! This Priest killed and tortured innocent animals.

Collegedebt, you're right, but I think that was part of Sundown's point. The conservative voters have failed us just as miserably as the conservative government, and in their ignorance they still think they made the right choice.

Why are we proud of America? Simple two words that govern our nation.
1. Liberty
We have the freedom to earn wealth. We have the freedom to earn nothing. We have the freedom to do or not do.
2. Free Speech
We have the right to say what we think. There is no guarantee that what we say will be intelligent or considered. Your rambling diatribe is a perfect example of this!

Now lets consider your points.
Our country left poor people to rot in a hurricane.
Truth: Liberals starting with the mayor ( a black gentleman ) and the governor ( a female ) left the poor to rot. They failed to act. They prevented FEMA and the Red Cross from coming in to assist. FEMA, slow and awkard, are hardly problems in the same league with the Mayor saying 'You are on your own! good luck!" Or the Governor sitting on her hands because she was totally incompentant to be a leader of a state. (Why is it that all the other states hit by the hurricane didn't have these problems. They didn't have Liberals in charge!

There is a large population of people who don't have health care.
True. So What? It is not governments business to baby its citizens from birth to death. Liberty means freedom to succeed or to fail. Also, every hospital, by law, must treat people who arrive there with a health problem. So even though there are many people without health care, they still get health care by going to the hospital.

In Canada they have free health care.
Truth: No they don't. You are confusing cost with price. The costs of the health care are still present. They are paid by Canadian citizens in taxes. The price of getting health care is zero because they are not charged at the doctors office but the costs still exist. (Confusing cost with price is a common Liberal problem. Liberals refuse to understand real life economics.) Two more points...The Canadian health care system is so overburdened that surgical appointments are out 6 months and 12 months at time. Canadians come to America to get (and pay) for health care because they can't get it at home.

One almost after thought: Who creates new drugs? Free Market Americans. Where health care is a government operation, drug research is eliminated. I'll leave it to you to figure out why that happens. Hint: Costs vs Price Liberal Confusion hits again!

We had people signing promissory notes to pay back ...
So What? Who Cares? They have been told since 1996 that Lebanon was a very dangerous place. They were advised not to go there. They are responsible for their own problem.

We are a nation get fatter dumber and greedier....
Typical Liberal chatter. No facts just blather. Moving on...

We are the biggest producers of pollution.
Huummmm -> no. Wrong again. The countries making up the old USSR are the worst polluters. Communist China comes in second. Or maybe it's India or Mexico City. I forget. The fact that American citizens can earn wealth and do so far better than anyone else in the world also means that we have the means to fight pollution. Remember the Keyoto (I probably misspelled that), Treaty? The one President Bush said was a load of tripe and not worth bothering with? Fact: All the nations that voted to enact that treaty have failed to carry it out. That treaty was a lot of Liberal Talk but in the end everyone ignored it, including the nut-sos who wanted it to begin with.

I am sorry to hear that a priest killed and tortured innocent animals. As a Conservative I believe that all people should be held responsible for their acts. If true this person will face the law. Now that your rantings have been exposed, what are your responsibilities? May I suggest you make more of an effort to do independent research and some independent thinking.

You did not list one thing that is the responsibility of the federal government. Try reading the Constitution and stop listening to Air America and you might learn something.
1. Hurricane Katrina - It's not the US gov. job to get people out of New Orleans. That's up to the state of Louisiana and the City of New Orleans.
2. Outsourcing Jobs - Companies do that, not the government. Keep raising minimum wages and see how many jobs get outsourced!
3. Socialist Health care - Nothing is free, someone has to pay for it. That would be the taxpayers!
4. Schools - Schools are controlled locally not by the federal government.
5. Lebanon evacuation - Why should my tax dollars be spent to get anyone out of anywhere. They shouldn't have been there to begin with.
6. Biggest producers of pollution - That would be China.
7. Animal cruelty - We have laws to deal with that. If people broke those laws they will be prosecuted.

It sounds to me that you think that the federal government should control everything. That's called socialism. Move to China and see how you like it. I'm proud of my country because it's the freest, strongest and bravest country in the history of mankind.

SPIROCHETES OF AMERICA LISTEN UP!!!!! LES I CAST MY PEARLS BEFORE SWINE - AND THAT'S WHAT I AM DOING ANYWAY BECAUSE LIBERAL SPIROCHETES CAN'T LEARN

Our country has done some awful things- grow up - every country has done awful things which is undefined in your whimper.

It has left poor people to rot in a hurricane -this is the failed liberal premise that government is the source of all your problem solving
but you will never admit to it - that storm was an opportunity to see that government can’t be there always and the media had a field day with your weak liberal mind.


This country outsources American jobs to save a buck -
No corporations out source jobs to save money - the jobs that move never belonged to the people who occupied them previously. You don't own your job you are lucky to have a job but as a liberal spirochete this doesn't register in your weak yellow coward mind.
You have a sense of entitlement – the evil corporation that you hate took “YOUR JOB.”
Aside from the lower wages found overseas why count all the savings from the administrative nightmare placed on them for environmental , social , legal , etc.
placed there by spirochete politicians and attorneys. Now those corporations can do business the old fashion way – yes and they will take advantage.

There is a large population of people who don't have health care.

Yes they don't have health care- this will take some typing to explain. Its hard work casting your pearls before swine isn't it??
This actual number depends on the clown liberal quoting the number.
No one is entitled to health care - this is just another liberal clown phrase coined by liberal clowns who think socialism is the answer to their pathetic whims. Liberal democrats should start a health fund so they can take care of this - of course they really don’t produce anything with their pathetic lives so they won’t be able to afford, design, or manage it even if they tried. What we really need is for everyone to pay then Hillary can mange it and the government can pick and choose winners and losers in who they buy product from and who gets what treatment when. Do you like to wait in line spirochetes?? I could on and on just barely scratched the surface.

Illegal immigration and Immigration - this adds to the problem now doesn't it - maybe they can bring health care with them in their knapsack!!!
Patent laws and retroactive buybacks make drugs more expensive - it's never addressed
I could on and on just barely scratched the surface

but in Canada they have free healthcare.
Monkey - they pay through high taxes – many Canadians come to America to have surgery because Canadian healthcare sucks- it has been bailed out twice
by their government – move to Canada they are socialist losers just like you

I just watched Oprahs series about schools in crisis and how awful some schoos have become
Yes well the government’s track record running anything is really bad isn’t it.
They should run health care!
You watch T.V. for your social conscience because you are a monkey spirochete.

Separation of church and state caused a lot of this aside from the natural incompetence government brings to the table – vouchers are evil Jesus is bad
Ten commandments bad – young people are not stupid they have no respect for that system run by a NAZI SOCAILAST REGIME CALLED THE NEA but it’s a good Nazi regime because they agree with the spirochetes of America

When we evacuated Americans out of Lebanon we had people signing promissary notes to pay back the ticket home when other countries evacuated their citizens no questions asked.
**** other countries they tax their people to death
We are on the pay as you go ( its called freedom ) plan you little yellow maggot – it just makes you feel awful about your country No one is asking you to stay.



We are a nation get fatter, dumber, greedier and more dangerous.
And can’t spell or use proper grammar probably because you went to the public schools. Fatter yes it’s a free health care society
Dumber – yes you are proving right now
Greedier people who make and do more are deemed greedier because this country has a spirochete problem – parasites who hire a lawyer at the drop of a hat to straighten those greedy people out.

We are the biggest producers of pollution, Yes we still have a manufacturing base and we drive cars and use a lot of chemicals on our food supply. We also produce benefit from it clown weasel



we are the largest drug consuming nation in the world Yes we have 8 million elementary students doped up on Prozac and Ridelin prescribed by psychopathic administrators and moron parents – mostly to boys who can’t sit still in your government run school system and behave like a little girl. Do your home work flunky this is the best yet you may begin to understand spirochetes.

. So how can you be proud of this country?
Why you little ******* yellow coward your kind is the parasite that has brought this country where it is currently stands it is slowly going insane because spirochetes bring insanity to the host. They can’t live independent of the host because parasites have no blood of their own
They hunt some one else’s

There is a lot to be proud of in America. Even though we, as a country, have made some poor choices, you have to realize this is one of the best countries to live in. All we can do at this point is each one of us should try to make as big of a difference in our part of the world as we can and leave the rest to God. But if that doesn't work, move away. But every place has a different challenge.

I agree--this administration has done very little to be proud of in the past few years. But the Conservatives are traditionally in favor of big business, not the poor or even the average person. And after all, weren't they able to get their buddies at Exxon record profits? Didn't they get Haliburton all kinds of new contracts? Weren't they able to make it so that several businesses made money off of money earmarked for Hurricane Katrina victims? It's a bright, shining world for them!

America isn't perfect. I'm still proud to be an American. If you're not, you have some choices to make. You can devote some of your time, talent and money to improving it, you can just run with the herd that someone else (good or bad) is leading, or you can go somewhere else that you think is better.

"Lead, follow, or get out of the way."

Do not blame your government for the ails our country faces. Governments are primarily based upon the people in them, people seize as much power as they can, when they can. Instead you must look inward.

America's future relies not on our Governing body but rather on the eternal vigilance of the American people. Once we lose our vigilance we will lose our prosperity and freedom along with it. Ironically prosperity is what causes complacency in the first place.
