Wash. Times: Danged furners are ruining Amer’ca!

Published 6/8/08

I don’t know that any comment I could make would be necessary. This Washington Times editorial pretty much speaks for itself — volumes, really, showcasing a backward-looking, isolationist, narrow mindset.

The Bradley Project on America’s National Identity issued a report which contends that America’s national identity is being weakened by the spread of multiculturalism and globalization.

“weakened” How about “improving” or “progressing” I’m happy to see that thee next generation is as hung up on a white bread America that steps on the rights of all minorities (GOP Excepted of course). I’m so sick to death of every generation looking back and wishing for the good old days. But they always seem to forget about things like polio, outhouses, depressions, typhoid, smallpox, the dust bowl era, gas lines, food shortages, etc. The good old days weren’t always good and you have to take the bad with the good.

At least I’m not stuck in the 70’s and complaining about the music kids play (even if I don’t like most of it)

I can understand where you guys are coming from, but the good old days weren’t all bad. I have a real problem when our school teachers are forced to have to deal with kids that can’t speak our language, so instead of making the kids (and their families) speak English, we as a society have to change to accommodate them. I guess if you were close to say the Mexican border I could understand this, but I’m in Western New York, why do my kids teachers have to deal with a different language and why do all our signs have to now be in two languages?

I find it funny that gas lines, dust bowl era, smallpox, typhoid, and polio weren’t related to being an isolationist country, yet it was brought up. Yes all that stuff happened in the past, but so did the assembly line, the coffee pot, the refrigerator, and the telephone, the tractor, etc.

I’m speechless. But I guess, since I live at the east edge of the Great Plains, I should move out of my house and into a Tipi and start aqcuiring some horses. But wait, those multicultural heathens where part of the globalization drive of the lase Ice Age. So, I guess I’m just speechless.

God, what morons…
