Thread: America

Will we still be the Country of choice and still be America if we continue

to make the changes forced on us by the people from other countries
that came to live in America because it is the Country of Choice??????

Think about it!

All we have to say is, when will they do something about MY RIGHTS?


I celebrate Christmas...........but because it isn't celebrated by everyone..............we can no longer say Merry Christmas. Now it has to be Season's Greetings.

It's not Christmas vacation, it's Winter Break. Isn't it amazing how this winter break ALWAYS occurs over the Christmas holiday?

We've gone so far the other way, bent over backwards to not offend anyone, that I am now being offended. But it seems that no one has a problem with that.
This says it all!

This is an editorial written by an
American citizen, published in a
Tampa newspaper. He did quite a job; didn't he? Read on, please!

IMMIGRANTS,
NOT AMERICANS,
MUST ADAPT.
I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we
are offending some individual or their culture. 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 made up 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
multicultural 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, Portuguese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language.
Therefore, if you wish to become part
of our society, learn the language!

"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.......on 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 part of our culture.

If 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.
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.


It is Time for America to Speak up
If you agree -- pass this along;
if you don't agree -- delete it!

AMEN

As a Brit I have to say 'WELL SAID' psirois...

Exactly. As another Brit we are seeing this more and more. Christmas lights are now Winter lights, piggy banks are being removed from banks so they don't offend Muslims...

Sorry, and I'm not particularly religious, but it's stupid... I've never met a Muslim who was anti-Christmas. This is also a Christian country.... if Christianity (and our traditions) offended them then they wouldn't choose to live here.

I'd like to see the uproar if the politically-correct morons decided to ban any references to Ramadan or Diwali...

This bowing to the minority (who don't care anyway) has gone too far now.

A large part of the reason I left the UK is listed above. Add to that list the fact that as a straight, white, healthy working male I didn't receive the welfare handouts or special needs grants reserved for the rest of the population............I just paid for them. Good bye is the only way to survive.

This morning on Sky news, I read that 30 million people in the UK receive one or more welfare benefits!!! Out of a population of approx 70 million. That's unsustainable. The UK has reached the point where working is a waste of time. The benefit society has arrived. And I am not prepared to pay for it!!

$9 a gallon for gas, $10 for a pack of cigarettes, avg house price around $320k, stealth taxes & political correctness everywhere............ not for me!!

Having a great day in freedom

Merry C******S to All
by John Leo

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care
In hope that St. Nicholas soon would be there.
When out on a lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter.
There was Santa again, on his annual journeys,
Ensnared in a group of eight tiny attorneys.
They looked pretty grim and they threatened to sue,
So we knew in a flash---"It's the ACLU!"
They paid us no heed, but went straight to their work,
Handcuffing poor Santa, then said with a smirk:
"This is secular airspace, we can't have a saint
Flying our flightpaths---we need some restraint.
A sleigh full of toys is OK, we suppose,
But faith-based incursions we've got to oppose."
Litigation on Christmas is something we dread,
So we nestled our children all under their beds,
The grinch doesn't scare them, and Scrooge they see through,
But what kids are prepared for the ACLU?
The reindeer were shackled as a further incitement,
Then the lawyers unpackaged a 12-count indictment.
"Merry Christmas to all!" they just had to foreclose
(Though they had no complaint about all the "Ho Hos").
One lawyer objected to Santa's red clothing.
"It's religiously tainted," he said with some loathing.
"Poinsettias (the red ones) everybody must note, are
A church-state offense in St. Paul, Minnesota!"
Santa's climb up each chimney (one lawyer made mention)
Is a symbolic reference to Jesus' ascension.
And the reindeer, of course, recall the Apostles,
And those who deny it are nothing but fossils.
These lawyers have labored at neighborhood schools,
Making Christmas extinct there as part of the rules.
Praise Kwanzaa or Ramadan---they think it's quite splendid,
But say "Merry Christmas" and you might get suspended.
Our children, God bless them, don't get or recall
Why "inclusiveness" doesn't include them at all.
Why diversity theory (as the lawyers insist) must
Require the annual quashing of Christmas.
In Canada, home of post-everything living,
Now the "12 Days of Christmas" are "The 12 Days of Giving."
Christmas trees aren't party to the season at all,
They buy "multicultural trees" at the mall.
At a hospital (Catholic), the staff is ashamed
To use the word Christmas, so their tree is misnamed,
As a "care tree," though some would prefer "tree of life."
(Why not "tall lit-up flora" to avoid any strife?)
Australians are told they should have no compunction
Calling parties at Christmastime "end of the year functions."
The idea is to make Christmas somehow unmentionable,
A tactic I think of as wholly contemptionable.
Instead of "White Christmas" they will probably sing,
"I'm dreaming of a snow day sometime in pre-Spring."
Here's my suggestion, a harsh one I fear,
Why not call Christmas "Christmas?" (It's just an idea.)

U.S. News & World Report, December 23, 2002

Fortunately, the Alliance Defense Fund (ADF) has begun to win some cases and the ACLU to lose. It is legal (and Constitutional) to say "Merry Christmas" and to have a nativity scene on public property
For more info go to their website:
http://www.alliancedefensefund.org/main/default.aspx

We even had a local school district in Plano, Texas try to ban the wearing of red and/or green during December as that sent a "Christmas, i.e.religious message." The
ADF informed them of their errors.

this is a classic dog and pony show. diversion, that is.

Show, Hell. It is the way it should be. When others want to immigrate to this country, they need to be willing to adapt to our way of doing things, not expect us to adapt to their ways. It is their ways that made them want to come here. Adapt, or get out.

Interesting,

I would suspect they love it, for they are making billions on American casinos now. Only in America. LOL

Good luck to all, Mike
