?The only real American are NATIVE AMERICANS...!!?
Oh man, not that lame charge again. You snot-nosed Europeans not only think you were born with a better pot to piss in, you think it?s the original pot? You figure you have more legitimacy when it comes to the question of Nationhood, or Culture. Ok, put down your Dr. Zeuss book, turn off your Barney video and I will teach you a little history lesson.
The question of American nationhood and citizenship is no different than in Europe. For centuries, as the various tribes of Europe battled, alliances were made, , the original nomadic tribes were conquered, city-states rose in their place, and the question of nationhood was settled and resettled. Let?s take one city in Europe as an example. How about Strausbourg?
In 13 BC - if you lived in Strasbourg you would be Celtic
In 12 BC - you would be Roman
In the 5th century AD ? you would be a part of the Frankish Kingdon
In 1262 ? You would be part of the Holy Roman Empire
In 1681 ? you would be French
In 1870 ? you are German
In 1918 ? you are French (sacre? blieu! How confusing!)
In 1940 ? Here we go again ? you?re German (NINE! NINE! DAS is CAPUT! )
Ah, but wait! IN 1944 - Get out your French dictionaries because guess what? You?re French again!!!!!!!!!
Of course it?s not just cities, whole countries disappeared. Maybe you can find Prussia on the map? How about Bohemia?
You want to talk tribes? What ever happened to the Medes, the Celts, Normans, Saxons, Bulgars, Slavs, the Avars, the Poles, Czechs, Serbs, the Magyars, the Franks, the Geto-Dacian tribes, the Vandals, the Gauls, the Moors, (hold on let me catch my breath) the Huns, the Scythians. the Danes, the Vikings, the Khazars, the Saracens, the Lombards, the Venetians, Sicilians, the Goths, the Mamelukes?? Even as little as ten years ago changes were STILL being made to the borders of Europe.
How about your own country? First you were an Independent nation, then your royal family died out due to inbreeding and syphilis, so you became part of an alliance with Denmark, then you were part of Sweden, then you were independent again, then you were part of Denmark again, then you owned Greenland and Iceland, then you lost them, then you were part of Sweden again, then you won your independence again in 1905, then you were part of Nazi Germany, and then the allies sacrificed their lives for you and handed you back your independence.
So you tell me what makes an Englishman English and a Frenchman French anymore than an American is American? Other than being snobs. You like to act like you are pure pedigree, but you are mutts just like us. Only with you, it?s your dirty little secret. We are proud to be mutts!! We got our country the same way you did, bro. Our ancestors kicked somebody else?s butt!
You Europeans like to pretend you?re a bunch of saints. I find it particularly reprehensible that you would toss out slavery as a topic without owning up to the fact that Europeans (your country in particular) profited off the capture, shipment and sale of African people to the new world. What was done to Africans was a sin against God and nature. Where do you Europeans come off pretending your hands are clean? Your cities are built on blood money! Here in America we are still living with the repercussions of an institution that Europe started!
America is the most multicultural country in the history of this planet. If we?ve had our share of growing pains, it?s no wonder. For over a hundred years Europe used this country as a dumping ground for it?s poor, and any other group you didn?t want to deal with. One million starving Irish people. Homeless Italians. Persecuted Jews. The people and the groups your governments didn?t like. We took them in. We opened our doors to them. And

Welcome lovely. You?re name reminded me of a song. I'm no Frank Sinatra, but if you will allow me the honor (clears throat)
Some day, when I'm awfully low,
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow just thinking of you...
And the way you look tonight.
Yes you're LOVELY, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft,
There is nothing for me but to love you,
And the way you look tonight.
With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fear apart...
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
It touches my foolish heart.
LOVELY ... Never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it ?
'Cause I love you ... Just the way you look tonight.
Just the way you look to-night.
Whenever this discussion is raised on talk radio 9 out of 10 callers want something done about it. Everyone you talk to wants something done about it. But politicians refuse to do anything about it. It costs society money. The only people who gain are the businesses that exploit the immigrants. It CAN be done legaly, the way it used to. Background checks, immunization records, a sponsor, a job waiting for them. The states need to round up the illegals and dump them in Washington D.C. Maybe then we'll get some action.
It can be any one of those things, or all of those things. Although I'm not to fond of rants, unless there is a specific purpose for it. For me the most amazing works of literature are the ones that entertain and inspire. I?ll never forget when I first read the Brothers Karamazov. It?s supposed to be one of the great hallmarks of writing. Dostoevsky is considered to be a literary giant. But when I started reading it I realized the guy was a good story teller. On top of that it was a thought provoking novel, but at it?s heart it was a good story.
I think it depends on what kind of project it is. If it?s an important issue, then be illuminating. If it?s humorous then be entertaining. People need both in their lives. What is it that you?re working on? (or is it a secret?)
"American smokes smell like A-S-S " - LOL!
Sounds like a classic case of smokey bowel syndrome to me...
Hey I bite other people's nails, does that count?
