YES, I'M A BAD AMERICAN by: George Carlin
I Am Your Worst Nightmare. I am a BAD American. I am George Carlin.
I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some mid level governmental functionary be it Democratic or Republican!
I'm in touch with my feelings and I like it that way!
I think owning a gun doesn't make you a killer, it makes you a smart American.
I think being a minority does not make you noble or victimized, and does not entitle you to anything.
I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac, try to do it in English.
I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God when and where they want to.
My heroes are John Wayne, Babe Ruth, Roy Rogers, and whoever canceled Jerry Springer.
I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor.
I know wrestling is fake and I don't waste my time arguing about it.
I've never owned a slave, or was a slave, I didn't wander forty years In the desert after getting chased out of Egypt. I haven't burned any witches or been persecuted by the Turks and neither have you! So, shut up already.
I want to know which church is it exactly where the Reverend Jesse Jackson practices, where he gets his money, and why he is always part of the problem and not the solution. Can I get an AMEN on that one?
I think cops have the right to pull you over if you're breaking the law, regardless of what color you are.
And, no, I don't mind having my face shown on my drivers license. I think it's good..... and I'm proud that "God" is written on my money. I think if you are too stupid to know how a ballot works, I don't want you deciding who should be running the most powerful nation in the world for the next four years.
I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child, it takes two parents.
And what is going on with gas prices ... again?
If this makes me a BAD American, then yes, I'm a BAD American.
If you are a BAD American too, please forward this to everyone you know.
We need our country back!
We NEED GOD BACK IN OUR COUNTRY!
I would rather live my life as if there is a God, and die to find out there isn't, Than live my life as if there isn't, and die to find out there is.
I know... Is this really Carlin's work?
No. Urban legend. Long since discredited. Cool piece, but whoever wrote it (AGES ago), it sure as hell wasn't Carlin.
Thanks. It really doesn't sound like George Carlin's work. Too clean.

We'll hear a full apology from Teddy K for Chappaquidick before we hear Carlin ever saying anything like this.
How many times will this be posted this year?
I don't read FR as religiously as many others but I see this same post way too often.
Carlin is a hard core libertarian/contrarian and would never write anything resembling this.
You have a point.
If my bitching prevents even one other "Carlin" post then it's...oh what the hell.
Nobody would post them if they had already read one. They aren't reading this one.
OMG. This has got to be the fortieth time this is posted.
Your niece, if just now e-mailing this, is about three years behind the rest of the Internet. To forestall spam and BS, you should tell her not to forward you any e-mail promising that if a thousand people open it, they'll all get Microsoft products or a Disney vacation.
*smirk*
Let me guess . . . your niece is JUST NOW finding out about investment opportunities in Nigeria.
* NOTE: I'll pout if you answer my question
Must be some other George Carlin we dont know about. Cant believe the one we all know and love...well uh know anyway, would say these things.
You're awful touchy this morning.
