I AM YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE - A "BAD" AMERICAN
email ^ | 4/22/02 | George Carlin

Posted on 04/22/2002 5:28:56 PM PDT by Elkiejg

I like big cars, big hooters, and big paychecks. I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some midlevel governmental functionary with a bad comb-over who wants to give it away to crack addicts squirting out babies.

I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac, you'd better do it in English.

I'm not in touch with my feelings and I like it that way.

I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child, it takes two parents.

I think owning a gun doesn't make you a killer.

I want to know which church is it exactly where the Reverend Jesse Jackson preaches. And where does he get his money. And why is he always part of the problem and not the solution.

I think that being a student doesn't give you any more enlightenment than working at Blockbuster. In fact, if your parents are footing the bill to put your pansy ass through 4-7 years of college, you haven't begun to be enlightened.

I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God or gods, just leave the rest of us out of it. This also applies to sexuality.

I believe it's called the Boy Scouts for a reason.

I don't think being a minority makes you noble or victimized.

I don't use the excuse "it's for the children" as a shield for unpopular opinions or actions.

I think fireworks should be legal on the 4th of July.

My heroes are John Wayne, the Simpsons and whoever canceled Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman.

I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor.

I know wrestling is fake and I don't waste my time arguing about it.

I think global warming is a big lie. Where are all those experts now, when I am freezing my ass through a long winter?

I've never owned a slave, or was a slave, I didn't wander forty years in the desert after getting chased out of Egypt, I haven't burned any witches or been persecuted by the Turks and neither have you, so shut up already.

I think the cops have every right to shoot your sorry ass if you're running from them.

I also think they have the right to pull your ass over if you are breaking the law, regardless of what color you are.

I think if you are too stupid to know how a ballot works, I don't want you deciding who should be running the most powerful nation of the world for the next four years.

I think if you are in the passing lane, and not passing, your license should be revoked, and you should be forced to ride the bus until you promise to never delay the rest of us again.

I think beef jerky could quite possibly be the perfect food.

I think tattoos and piercing are fine if you want them, but please don't pretend they are a political statement or expect my tax dollars to pay to have them removed.

I think Dr. Seuss was a genius.

I'm neither angry nor disenfranchised, no matter how desperately the mainstream media would like the world to believe otherwise.

If that makes me a BAD American, then yes, I'm a BAD American.

We need our country back!

You may have seen this before, but when I got this email today, it brightened my day. I've been so discouraged with the news lately - Gore's back, America-haters marching in D.C., RATS lieing ALL the time ----- I needed a chuckle. Enjoy.

George Carlin didn't write this. Neither did Ted Nugent. Who did? Nobody knows.

I think we should all send a copy to Craig Shergold in a get-well card.

Don't go to that site! You will pick up the Goodtimes virus and lose a kidney.

Bootyist-monk was the earliest claimant to authorship coupla' years ago.

Ooooops, I see I am not first to post that tidbit.

George Carlin denied it, and fans know it's not his style.

I don't know who wrote it, but clearly they HAVE driven on the Taconic Parkway.

I have no sympathy for this any more. Use SEARCH feature to see that it has been posted 1.7 billion times.

Also, go to SNOPES and do a SEARCH before pasting internet junk e-mail to see if it is even true or FAKE, FAKE, FAKE.

Third, this particular piece was written right here on FreeRepublic and then shoved around the world 1.7 billion times. You can see it at this link:
AUTHORSHIP

Sorry, but this is the straw that broke the camels back on this thing.

Sorry - and thanks for letting me know of multiple posts. I withdraw the credit given to Carlin -- should have know it was written by a freeper - it's way too clever for Carlin!!

The thinnest two-lane parkway in the nation (at least around Bear Mt.) I would rather take the bus than drive there.

That is the most lethal virus I have ever encountered.

snopes.com is a good resource for filtering this and others.

There is a bit of a childish pleasure in arrogantly pointing out that a sincere effort to share was a oft repeated piece of b.s.

Look around, you can see some of that here.
