That Precious Jewel - American Citizenship
ArticleVBlog ^ | February 10th 2020 | Rodney Dodsworth

Posted on 02/10/2020 1:36:10 AM PST by Jacquerie

I’m an unabashed American. That’s an American without hyphens. Snowflake objections to our past don’t concern me. I’m proud of it all. All men are born equal, but not all nations. America is #1, every other nation is not, and that is that.

I look down my nose just a little at foreigners, not as 1930s Untermensch, but more in pity along the lines of our homegrown 1980s P.J. O’Rourke.1 Americans are simply unequally better than the rest of the world. Thanks to extra-ordinary good luck, I hold a jewel that much of the rest of humanity wants and I won’t give up: my share of the American community, my citizenship.

Unlike life in class-conscious countries, I needn’t avert my gaze downward when talking to anyone. The homeless American can stand next to the President and look at him squarely in his eyes. We don’t curtsey or genuflect to anyone but God. My attitude makes for swagger. From Old-Glory and Ronald Reagan t-shirts to a KAGA lawn sign, they all mark me as someone who loves his country and is covetous to keep it. As if my t-shirts didn’t send a strong enough signal, I enjoy the occasions when I’m rhetorically confronted by Leftists. For like-minded patriots, always remember that you have the advantage in defending what you know and love. The typical Leftist dirtbag doesn’t know what he’s talking about; why study what you hate? I wouldn’t, and neither do they.

You mention P. J. O’Rourke; enjoy this rant delivered to a condescending Brit who has just said something about how Americans think war is a John Wayne movie:

We think war is a John Wayne movie. We think life is a John Wayne movie – with good guys and bad guys, as simple as that. Well, you know something, Mister Limey Poofter? You’re right. And let me tell you who those bad guys are. They’re us. WE BE BAD.
We’re the baddest-assed sons of bitches that ever jogged in Reeboks. We’re three-quarters grizzly bear and two-thirds car wreck and descended from a stock market crash on our mother’s side. You take your Germany, France and Spain, roll them all together and it wouldn’t give us room to park our cars. We’re the big boys, Jack, the original, giant, economy-sized, new and improved butt kickers of all time. When we snort coke in Houston, people lose their hats in Cap d’Antibes. And we’ve got an American Express card credit limit higher than your piss-ant metric numbers go.
You say our country’s never been invaded? You’re right, little buddy. Because I’d like to see the needle-dicked foreigners who’d have the guts to try. We drink napalm to get our hearts started in the morning. A rape and a mugging is our way of saying “Cheerio.” Hell can’t hold our sock-hops. We walk taller, talk louder, spit further, f*ck longer, and buy more things than you know the names of. I’d rather be a junkie in a New York City jail than king, queen and jack of all you Europeans. We eat little countries like this for breakfast and sh*t them out before lunch.

P. J. O’Rourke, from Among the Euro-Weenies, in Holidays In Hell, 1988

I pretty much detest most of the world. Sorry but that’s just how I feel. I see people from every Third World crap hole working at the hospital where I work in southern NJ. Jabbering in everything but English, bashing my president, telling me how great their countries are, to which I ask them ‘’Then why did you leave?’’. That’s when the conversation stops.

I get infuriated when they start bashing Trump and talking
up socialism. I told one Greek bitch “I didn’t ask you to come here.’’ “Go back to Greece if you don’t like it here’’. Stony silence from her. I wish to God we could put a moratorium on immigration for at least a year. Two years would be even better. We’re losing our sovereignty.

That was a lot of fun. Thank you for posting it.

I’m a legal immigrant. It took a long time to take the oath of citizenship, but it still feels new and awesome and precious to me all the time. On road trips, I sing 1 verse of The Star Spangled Banner for every flag we see outside Perkins. I love this country so much. Being a citizen thrills me every blessed day!

In South Florida, in-store announcements aren’t made in English.

Glad you liked it, and very glad you’re a U.S. citizen. The country needs many like you.

I heard more English at San Juan International Airport in Puerto Rico than I did at Miami International.

Second, I occasionally see Burkha babes here in redneck north Florida. After the November election I hope President Trump deals with the problem so we don’t end up like France or the UK.

American citizenship is the Newell that the left is trying to devalue and I’d say very successfully by importing all of these parasites from the third world who care not for what the country stands for the care only for what they can get out of it.

When you open your borders to “free” trade of goods, services and people from socialist countries you become like them and NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND.

Out politicians do not think American citizenship means a damn thing. They give it away with both hands for free. Like it means nothing.

An open border is what the rats stand for and what the pubbies do nothing to stop.

When we take the House and keep the Senate and Presidency, the GOP had better get on board . . . or else.
