America

I got this in my email today.

America

SOMEONE FINALLY SAID IT!
Hip Hip Hooray!! Finally, someone has said what I think has been on every
American's mind!!!!! This is an editorial written by an American citizen,
published in a local newspaper.

"IMMIGRANTS, NOT AMERICANS, MUST ADAPT!!" I am tired of this nation worrying
about whether we are offending some individual or their culture, here in the
USA. Since the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, we have experienced a surge
in patriotism by the majority of Americans. However, the dust from the
attacks had barely settled when the "politically correct" crowd began
complaining about the possibility that our patriotism was offending others.
I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone who is
seeking a better life by coming to America. Our population is almost
entirely comprised of descendants of immigrants. However, there are a few
things that those who have recently come to our country, and apparently some
born here, need to understand.

This idea of America, being a multi -cultural community, has served only to
dilute our sovereignty and our national identity. As Americans, we have
our own culture, our own society, our own language and our own lifestyle.
This culture has been developed over centuries of struggles, trials, and
victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.

We speak ENGLISH, not Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any
other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn
the language! ENGLISH. "In God We Trust" is our national motto. This is
not some Christian, right wing, political slogan. We adopted this motto
because Christian men and women, of Christian principles, founded this
nation, and this is clearly documented. ! It is certainly appropriate to
display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest
you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is and
always will be part of our culture.

If the Stars and Stripes offend you, or you don't like Uncle Sam, then you
should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet. We are
happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we really don't
care how you did things where you came from. Remember, "Delta is ready when
you are and they can have you there by nightfall".

This is OUR COUNTRY, our land, and our lifestyle. Our First Amendment gives
every citizen the right to express his opinion and we will allow you every
opportunity to do so. But, once you are done complaining, whining, and
griping about our flag, our pledge, our national motto, or our way of life,
I highly encourage you to take advantage of one other great American
freedom, THE RIGHT TO LEAVE.

If you agree with this message, pass it on . If you don't agree, pass it on
anyway. What the heck! This is AMERICA, after all!

I love the fact that the only times you hear about PC is when it comes to the US... Try speaking out in some other countries and you'll find yourself locked away or dead...

God Bless the USA!

*if you don't believe in god, then:

Bless the US!

Happy 4th everyone!!!

You know its bad when even other immigrants say way too many are being let in and talk about the lack of English speaking.

Even though I wasn't born here in the United States, I agree with that completely. If this is a free country then I can pray wherever and whenever I want, and say the pledge of alegance or anything else that I want to say. If American patriotism offends people, then they should be given 24 hours to leave the country or be hung and set on fire because I see it as treason against the country, the same thing with flag burning. And to those who trip about "in God we trust", don't forget that if it wasn't for the founders of this country who believed in God, you would still be in your home country living in a clay hut in the middle of a dessert and not knowing how to read and write, not to even mention trying to file a lawsuite against this couintry and its beliefs.
