The Jews pay their bill and leave, and the waiter finds a huge tip. "Won't leave a dime, eh?" laughs his cohort. "Well, what did you expect?" the waiter snarls, "They've got all the money in the world!"
Americans have a lot to learn from Jews. Everybody hates us, and everybody wants us dead. And there is nothing we can do, for good or bad, that will change those facts.
I love the left...
They'll indict Americans as being "ignorant" (Michael Moore anyone?) while praising the intellectual prowess of the Europeans. My experience, however, is that the left's assertions of American ignorance is nothing more than projection:
"Europeans speak so many languages, and Americans barely speak one!"
Well, I for one speak two other languages fluently, and am currently working on my third. I also can manage to speak about 100 or so words in about three more languages; Spanish, Japanese, and Korean. Of course, I can only speak from my own experience, but EVERY time a lefty comes at me with this tired line, I ask, "Oh! Well, I speak German and Latin (yeah, I know... it's dead.. but fun) fluently! What do you speak?" and am met with blank stares "ummm... oh, uh... I used to take Spanish in high school... but I forgot everything..."
Case against liberal public education?
"Europeans are much more in tune with current events!"
As demonstrated by this website alone, I read several dozen newspapers daily, listen to news on the radio, as well as watch it on a couple TV stations. On top of that, I read academic journals in my particular field that would make most people's heads spin, and read about one non-fiction title a month. When I pose to my lib friends (a number which is rapidly diminishing), "Where do you get your news?," I generally hear, "uhh... well I listen to NPR... and Comedy Central's 'Daily Show'..."
I love that statement.... so, here for your amusement, is my father's (who turned me on to FR) news experiment...
Listen in the morning to your local AM Talk Radio news. Listen for a couple of hours or so if you can manage. Then, in the afternoon, listen to NPR and compare.
...my liberal friends NEVER take me up on that challenge.
"Europeans are so multicultural! I mean, a day trip in any direction is another culture."
Spoken like truly UNTRAVELLED people. If you think there's one overriding American culture, you watch too much TV. While there are certain traits and characteristics that bind us together, people are not the same whereever you go (despite the claims made by Stevie Wonder and Paul McCartney). If you want to experience culture shock, just travel to another state. Libs seem to think that Georgia is the same as Massachusetts, or California is the same as Alaska. Even within a state there are diverse cultures. I just moved to Illinois, and am amazed at the ubiquitous Amish culture here. I've never seen so many buggies in my life.
I suppose I could go on, but why bother, we all know that lefties are ignorant, hypocritical, know-nothings, who know that they're better than everyone else.
