The America I remember fondly is when a good host, out of consideration for smokers, would have ashtrays on the coffee table for guests. Enjoying a cigarette back in the 40s and 50s wasn't a crime and was quite normal.

Now in this upside-down world, smoking is now considered an act of evil and tobacco companies are Lucifer personified. Yet, sodomite marriage is now the norm and those who oppose such depravity are vilified.

In terms of American culture, I miss the era when what was then known as "race music" was pleasing and easy on the ears. Artists such as Nat King Cole, The Ink Spots and The Platters were among those I recall fondly. I'm over 70 and can't stand the loud, obnoxious, offensive, abrasive noise that passes as "music" from Holder's people nowadays.

A vivid study in contrast depicting American culture I remember compared to what it's devolved to now.
