The Cowboy Myth

Let the Cheese eating, surrender monkeys in euroland whine. They gave up the right to speak with Chamberlin @ the Munich pact. They are merely along for the ride...when they put TROOPS on the ground or clean up their mess in the Balkans then they can lecture the USA

by the way whenever they start to make noise- just flash the pict of the Swastika flying over the Eiffel Tower. Only the Brits and Turks have true grit now

[Clemenza]

Europeans are 95% effeminate socialists. Down here in South Florida, we get Germans, French (Canadian and European) along with South Americans. I can take their money, but not their attitude.

Besides, have you actually ever KNOWN any Frenchmen or Italians (from the other side)? Mama's boys bigtime!

[Clemenza]

Only the Brits

This is particularly true of the Scots and the Welsh. I must say, however, that Poofy Tony the Englishman has been quite the water carrier for us.

Yes, I lived in France for a while, took a university class in Dublin, and traveled all over, including Italy, especially Como.

From my real life experiences in Europe, I disagree with your estimate of effiminates and socialists.
But you might be an expert on effiminates and socialists.

Hey, you use the movie Godfather as background? Another 100% real world reference.

[HeadOn]

Only the Brits and Turks have true grit now.

True Grit. That's a good movie. Contending for the number one scene in all westerns is the picture of The Duke charging the bad guys by himself with the reigns in his teeth and both guns blazing.

"Fill your hands, you S@n of a B%*ch !"

Ya beat me to it! See post 28.

[AzJP]

P.S.
If you ever travel in France or Italy, you might be a little less mouth about Frenchmen and Italians being "Mama's boys bigtime".
Unless in those two countries you want to receive the Ugly American award (which would do wonders for the reputation of other New Yorkers and Floridians) and might also yield for you a variety of unpleasant personal experiences. Enjoy.

[Clemenza]

Have you ever seen the regulations and taxes that most of the EU has. For my money, only Lichtenstein and Monaco count as free states anymore.

For the record, I have traveled throughout Europe and Latin America. I work with more foreigners than Americans in my place of business. Show me how Euro-peons are not more socialist than the USA and I am sure that you can prove that snipes exist in the Phoenix Valley.

Furthermore, as a half-Italian American, I am proud of the fact that my ancestors learned how to shove on their own in America and minimalize Mammisima.

BTW: Why do you knock my screen name?

[Clemenza]

I'm not so sure about the French, but most Italiam women will tell you about how the men remain boys for most of their lives. When drunk, so will most Italian men.

[Frumious Bandersnatch]

Thanks.  I knew it had "Red" in it, but I was just as sure that it wasn't "Red Dawn" or "Red Sun Rising" which were the only other two that I could think of.

[Clemenza]

In France, it is (or was) against the law to throw your adult children out of the house without first getting approval from the courts.

"I think GW on the ranch embodies what real America is still all about."

He sure does. He, unlike Clinton, represents the true American spirit. The social(sm) collectivists of EUrope will never - CAN never - understand that, because the fashionable political left is unable to comprehend the American spirit.

The French loved Clinton. They dismiss GW as a "cowboy." What does that tell us?

[Jonah Hex]

What myth?

[AzJP]

Because the movie was a piece of fictional drama flavored with history. According to notes from Coppola. According to comments from Puzo.
Hell, I really don't care about your screen name. Sorry I made a comment about the reference.

Nice background kid, but I still disagree with your assessment of Europeans being 95% effiminate socialists. You must have traveled in a different crowd.
Hey, so what, I have nothing against effiminates, or socialists, as long as they mind their own business.
If that's what you found in Europe, you're welcome to your own.

[moyden]

Cowboy = Individualism

Liberal = Collectivism

Therefore, the liberal despises the idea of a cowboy.

See ya' around Clem, I've finished downloading and I've got serious work....gonna' ship livestock to your faggity marxists buddies in Europe. For a profit.
