I believe in putting Americans first. Poor Americans should come before illegal immigrants, the lives of our troops are more important than the lives of the terrorists they’re fighting and I don't much care what the United Nations or "international law" has to say about anything. I wish everybody well and think we have a debt of honor to the countries that fought shoulder-to-shoulder with us in wars, but I’m not a “citizen of the world.” I’m an American first and the rest of the world is a very distant second.
I don’t care for most of the politicians in our country, even the ones in my party -- and our President is a disgrace. But, I also think God couldn't give anyone a much sweeter gift than the privilege of being an American citizen. That's something every good American should remember and teach to his children. I’m proud when I see a flag wave because it’s the symbol of a people who conquered a continent, became a superpower and saved the world three times. If you don’t feel any pride for being a part of a nation like that, you should move to a nation you can be proud to support.
As an American, I have a healthy disrespect for the government, along with any busybodies who want to tell me what to do or bureaucrats who think they know how to spend my money better than I do. I don't need help from the government any more than our ancestors needed help from the British and the few things I want it to do, it doesn't do very well. When the government secures the border, stops giving our tax dollars to lazy people who won’t work, and balances the budget, then I'll stop resenting every dime I have to send in on April 15th.
I respect cops, soldiers, firemen and anybody else who runs toward danger when everyone else runs away. I like feminine women, men who fulfill their responsibilities, and children who've been spanked until they've learned to treat adults with courtesy. While we're at it, if your kid is getting in trouble at school, stop blaming the teacher and punish his sorry little butt until he straightens up and flies right. If we had more kids getting spanked and less parents letting them run wild and walk around with their pants hanging below their behinds, we'd have a better country.
While we're at it, I say "Yes, sir” and “No, ma’m," I tip 20% and I treat everyone from janitors to waitresses with respect. If I need to yell at someone, I'll have a manager called up so I'm at least yelling at someone who can do something about my problem instead of venting at some working stiff who's just doing his job. I open doors for women, pull out their chairs and offer them seats on the subway. If a woman doesn't like that, then that's her problem, not mine.
I wouldn't tell any woman she has to try to look attractive for men, act like a lady, and make me a sandwich, but I will admit that I appreciate the women who do. I also don't mind telling a woman she looks great if she does. What kind of world would it be if we can't tell a woman who spent an hour trying to make herself look beautiful before she went out that it worked? All these feminists who insist women are just like men? They don’t even know themselves. The reason men love women is because they aren't like us.
I don't care what race, sex, gender or religion you are; you don't deserve to be discriminated against and you don't deserve any special privileges. If you expect me to turn a blind eye while you treat someone badly or feel entitled to special treatment, you're going to be disappointed. I don't care if you get offended because you can take your trigger words and your complaints about “white privilege,” turn them sideways, then shove them where the sun doesn't shine. Curse me out if you like, but at least do it in English since that's the language we speak in this country.
I think we should be more concerned with telling people the truth than sparing their feelings. There is a God and your life will be better if you believe in HIM. You’re stuck with the gender you’re born with and you can’t change it. Abortion is killing a living, breathing human being who would love you with all his heart. Ninety nine percent of the time your kids will do better if they have a mommy and a daddy in the home. You can’t be a good Christian and support abortion or gay marriage. Better to get mad about it now and have a chance to do something than to figure it out when it’s too late.
Nobody owes me anything and you’ll never hear me complaining that life’s unfair. I was born an American, I have two parents, I’ve loved and been loved in return and so as far as I’m concerned, that means I hit life’s lottery. Too many people don’t realize how good they have it here because they weren’t raised right, they’ve never cracked open a history book and they spend too much time envying people who have more than they do instead of appreciating what they have. This is the greatest country God ever raised up from the muck and any American who isn’t willing to say so has something wrong with him.
Love it!
Great line:
Curse me out if you like, but at least do it in English since that’s the language we speak in this country.
Good answer.
When a man opens a door for me, I always say, “Thank you, sir!”
Kinda the mindset I have is I’m no better than anybody but nobody is better than me either. LOL! Merry Christmas. HoHoHoHoHo!
I do care if you are Muslim.

I care, too, but I do not regard that political movement/death cult as an actual religion, so I have no quarrel with the author’s statement.
BFL
“God bless us, everyone.”
Merry Christmas.
Bravo!
Too bad they don’t teach what John Hawkins wrote to every kid in school. They need to hear this because it is how WE older people have been taught and it has been working for a long, long time. It’s what we, as real Americans are. Sadly, much of what Mr. Hawkins wrote has been lost on todays idiots.
Amen.
Hawkins only missed one thing; he should have said “It’s okay to say Merry Christmas and not be PC.” But agree with the rest.
You can bet your a$$ you’re the type of American they want to see disappear! When they come for you (and me) you can rest assured there will be like minded people standing with you in the fight. I think, they’ll try to wait us out, using the school system and government subsidies instead of a frontal assault.
These progressive pussies are thoughtful in the pursuit of their goals, It hasn’t gotten to the point of strapping ‘vests’ on gullible brain-washed American high school seniors yet.
Dawg ping...
Merry Christmas hounds...
I am ALSO the type of American “they” want to see disappear.
Unfortunately... my trigger finger says “no”.
Do Not Go Gently.
“...Herald, save thou thy labor. Come thou no more for ransom, gentle herald. They shall have none, I swear, but these my joints, Which, if they have, as I will leave to them, shall yield them little...”
-Henry V
Merry Christmas, Dawgs... indeed... proud to be in the same Manger with you all.
“...It’s what we, as real Americans are. ...”
And as long as even ONE Of us still exists somewhere...
THEY haven’t won.
F*** ‘em.
Thank God I’m an American.
I agree with all that you said.
Hallelujah!
Tells it like it is ...
The truth lives!...The truth lives!...The truth lives!...The truth.........
Ah, Henry V - one of the Bard’s Best!
Merry Christmas, to the Dawg Pond.
RE Henry V:
Indeed... Saint Crispin’s Day speech... Chills, man... still get ‘em when I hear it.
Kenneth Branagh’s version was amazing...
