I'm proud to be an American, because only in America:
-can a pizza get to your house faster than an ambulance.
-do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.
-do people order double cheese burgers, large fries, and a diet coke.
-do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.
-do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.
-do we use answering machines to screen calls and then have call waiting so we won't miss a call from someone we didn't want to talk to in the first place.
-do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.
-do we use the word 'politics' to describe the process so well: 'Poli' in Latin meaning 'many' and 'tics' meaning 'bloodsucking creatures'.
-do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering.

I was born in American but my moms side is from Panama.. I really am ashamed most of the time because Americans tend to be so arrogant, close-minded, etc..So sadly I would have to say that I am NOT proud to be an American..

Not any more. Being an American is embarrassing these days since our government has made enemies all over the world even with out traditional allies. We've done so many things to be ashamed of I honestly don't know what to think except I'm ashamed of us.

Yes and no. Our culture is headed down the drain, but it's good not to have bombs going off outside the door.

this question always reminds me of the late, great Bill Hicks:
"Well, I really didn't have much to do with it. My parents f--ked, there, that's all."

No, not these days, because most of my peers are ignorant and/or arrogant.
