Proud of America because even an idiot can run for president

The first time I can recall being proud - or even really proud - of my country was when I was about 5-6 watching fireworks on the 4th of July outside Bexely High School in Columbus, Ohio with my dad. The first time as an adult was after Richard Nixon was run out of office. There were no tanks in the street like other dopey little countries where the maximum leader hangs onto power through force. The vice president was sworn in and on we went.

The latest time was this morning watching Cuban exiles celebrate Castro’s demise in Little Havana safe from tyranny in what is basically great and good nation. There have been too many other occasions to count; Marines of every race, color, creed and geographic portion of the nation working together; Marines going door to door on Christmas delivering presents donated by other Americans to the less fortunate; the fall of the Berlin wall; the fall of the Sadam statue; moon shots; shuttle launches; private generosity to victims of every kind of tragedy everywhere in the world be it tsunami, hurricane, tornado, craved Islamo-terror-fascists etc. Even the Scoutmaster staying at the end of the night, long after the meeting has ended and the hall has cleared to listen to the last boy’s story make me proud to have been lucky enough to have been born here – that last one happened last night and the boy was Lex jr.

So excuse me if I think Michelle Obama is a bit of a self-centered female dog for suggesting that America has offered her nothing to be proud of until her empty headed husband got on roll last month. And I’m not buying any of the MSM spin that oh she meant this or she meant that. She said exactly what she meant. If not she’d have come out falling all over her self about how great this country is and what great opportunities it has afforded her and her elephant-eared husband. She’s done nothing but offer excuses.

So, if she has such a low regard for her country, why doesn’t she do us all a favor and get the hell out. She certainly has the means to move her family to a country she could be more proud of. Ironically, those means were afforded her by the very country she holds in such a low regard.

Why doesn’t she move to Africa where she and her family can be hacked to death by machete wielding Muslim lunatics who look more like the Obamas. Why doesn’t she move to communist China where they share many of her husband’s political ideas but where she’d certainly disappear the first time she ran her trap about not being proud of the country or its government. She could dawn a burka and move the Middle East where she and her two daughters could be treated like property.

The MSM will want us all to forget about this. Until Barry Obama’s campaign spends the money to buy three hours of prime time TV and she uses that time to list all the benefits this country has afforded her and her empty suit husband, I’m not forgiving or forgetting. And by the why, I’m one of those angry white men that decides most American elections.
