I'm Offended -- Deeply

I'm sorry, but after hearing they want to sing OURNational Anthem in Spanish ... enough is Too much!
NEVER did they sing it in Italian, Japanese, Polish, Irish-Celtic, German,Portuguese, Greek, French, or any other language because of immigration.
It was written by Francis Scott Key and should be sung word forword the way it was written. The news broadcasts gave a translationthat's NOT even close.
Sorry if this offends anyone ...but this is my country.
Let me make this perfectly clear
THIS IS MY COUNTRY!
And, because I make this statementDOES NOT mean I'm against immigration!!!
YOU ARE WELCOME HERE IN MY COUNTRY.
Welcome to come through like everyone else has.
Get a sponsor!
Get a place to lay your head!
Get a job!
Live by OUR rules!
Pay YOUR taxes!
AndLEARN THE LANGUAGE LIKE ALL OTHERIMMIGRANTS HAVE IN THE PAST!!!
AND PLEASE DON'T DEMAND THAT WE HAND OVER OUR LIFETIME SAVINGS OF SOCIAL SECURITY FUNDS TO YOUTO MAKE UP FOR ''YOUR'' LOSSES.
When will AMERICAN'S STOP giving away THEIR RIGHTS???
We've gone so far the other way ... bent over backwards not tooffend anyone.
But it seems no one cares about the AMERICAN that's being offended!

If you want to come here and become an American, welcome one and all (a few at a time, please). But if you want to come here and remain a Mexican, Greek, Afghani or anything OTHER THAN American, go the hell home!

Maybe it's the bullseye painted on my forehead?

Determined said...

OOO! How much did you pay for that tattoo? I like the perfect red white and blue circles - lest not forget the black dot in the middle. LOL
oh come on, Anne, laugh with me!

Its political correctness madness gone mad.

Solaris,

I didn't have to pay anything for the tattoo -- I got it for free so long as I agreed to be a walking endorsement for a popular department store that is a rival of WalMart. (Think about it.) That's why the stripes are only red and white. It's my eyes that are blue. No, wait -- they used to be blue; now they're green.
Of course I'm laughing with you, silly!

You got it, Lara! I've spent my whole life being politically correct, before it was politically correct to BE PC. I just think it's been carried a little too far, at the expense of our way of life. But I'm still a card-carrying PCer -- just not as over-the-top as we've become.
