At first I found it depressing.
But then, later in the day, I was thinking...
I grew up in the 1960s and '70s. If someone had polled the teenaged and early-20s baby boomers about "would they leave America if they could," I bet at least as many would have answered as the millenials did in the survey Rush quoted.
That time period was very chaotic compared to today. Riots in every major city. Multiple political assassinations - two a time span of less than three months in 1968.
The draft, the campus riots, the baby-boomer demographic effect... when you add it all up, the typical baby boomer thought the USA sucked.
The type of survey Rush quoted might have placed the number at 75%, I think might be a plausible guess.
Teenagers and most 20-somethings are ignorant. Always have been, always will be.
I believe they did, but it wasn't included in this report.
I heard those figures a day or two ago and, as I recollect, barely half of all whites were "proud to be American" while around 80% of blacks felt that way.
You sure those are American women? or are they internationalistic socialist women?
Obama used that “citizen of the world” epithet to describe himself in 2008. These women, if they don’t lie (no need to call Captain Obvious here), would also apply that epithet to themselves. Double agents and moles always say they belong to the country they are subverting.
Gotcha. You fully support the current admin and court’s actions. Plus the self neutering of congress.
And you grant yourself the right to condemn any who disagrees with you to exile.

The left is taking over EVERYWHERE and no one is stopping them.
Yeah, the lack of pushback is totally unAmerican.
As an American military veteran, the Continental 48 is the best place on the globe for me.
As a ‘seasoned citizen’, I might say that we could dump 47% of the existing examples of the gene pool, just to see the bottom of the mess, before we clear it up.
As a ‘seasoned Nativist’, the percentage just might be fiddled with, a bit more or so.
I believe the British sum up Americans precisely in the British saying this regarding Americans ... Americans can always be counted on to do the right thing after exhausting all other possibilities.
“coming out of the aftermath of WW1 nicely. “
If draconian terms of the Versailles treaty which brought on a worthless currency and France hauling heavy industry out of the Ruhr Valley are “nicely,” then, yeah. IOW, no.
A RINO or Democrat in the White House in 2017 will not end the long march of the Left. A RINO will only slow the rate of decay. It is not inconceivable that Bernie Sanders may be our next President, in which case we can count on more intense persecution, even beyond Obama. Never give up hope, but our odds of surviving as a relatively free nation are grimmer than they were in the 1970s.
No one?
If they seem that powerful to you, then remember the spiritual aspect. Those who go to the prince of this world for power are eventually consumed by that power.
Having a social-democratic Weimar Republic was no help either.
What does it mean to be an American anymore?
After last week, what is there left to be proud of except if you are some kind of sexual deviant?
The rainbow flag now flies over the White House. American Citizens are second class citizens and illegal invaders now hold the government of the United States in their hands.
Happy 4th of July.
Have you been living in a cave for the last 6 1/2 years?
The City on the Hill is in flames and the hill has eroded.
We have become a festering wart on a butt.
I was *once* extremely proud....now I actively support secession.
That shining city *was* Ferguson,Missouri.But after years of decay it burned to the ground a few months ago.
Allowing Obama to shape your thinking?
That’s what Obama wants you to pursue. He wants you to think he’s unstoppable without tearing the USA apart.
I’m sorry you live in that world.
Gallup needs to break out a lot of their stuff by race...
