only problem with all that is we are all from overseas at some point, unless ur a native american !

Even "Native Americans" are from overseas at some point, so don't start with that argument.

They have sovereignty over their tribal lands and they can do as they choose on them, DC exercises sovereignty over the remainder.

I didn't realize Geri Haliwell was a British Fascist, good to know.

Patriotic or not, you breathe intolerance and stupidity.

Your telling me that saying that you want to shoot an enemy of the state who is responsible for thousands of Americans deaths could get you arrested? Must be a new Obama administration thing cause didn't GW say basically the same thing about Osama Bin Laden "Wanted dead or alive"? :confused:

Ooops.......I misread his post.........sorry. :o Although wasn't it GWB that said he didn't know why so many people were so concerned with Osama because he WASN'T? :confused:

The words "under God" were added in 1954 by then President Eisenhower, who stated at the time, "In this way we are reaffirming the transcendence of religious faith in America's heritage and future; in this way we shall constantly strengthen those spiritual weapons which forever will be our country's most powerful resource in peace and war."

It is a pledge written by a religious socialist and then altered by the guy who help establish and coin the phrase military industrial complex.

Learn your history clones.

If you want people to learn from your posts rather than just be ****ed off at your arrogance, then you need to work on your delivery a little. Just a casual observation.

After reading your post, I wanted to put a cigarette out in your face, rather than thank you for your valuable and informative post.:rolleyes:

Is this what you wanted?

Alrighty then......a thread about wearing an American tie has led down the path of politics and religion and which party is patriotic and which is communist. Even informative posts end with insults at the general forum population. Nice job APC. Thread closed.
