Only Andy Rooney could
tell it this way. Andy Rooney was one in
a million. At the end of "60 Minutes" he usually had his own 10
minute segment that, unbelievably, was never censored by CBS. He's probably the
only one who could have gotten away with this.
Andy Rooney says.......“I don't think being a
minority makes you a victim of anything except numbers.. The only things I can
think of that are truly discriminatory are things like the United Negro College
Fund, Jet Magazine, Black Entertainment, Black Television and Miss Black
America".
Try to have things like
the United Caucasian College Fund, Cloud Magazine, White
Entertainment Television, or Miss White America; and see
what happens......Jesse Jackson will be knocking down your door.
Guns do not make you a
killer. I think killing makes you a killer. You can kill
someone with a baseball bat or a car, but no one is trying to
ban you from driving to the ball game.
I believe they are
called the Boy Scouts for a reason, which is why there are no
girls allowed. Girls belong in the Girl Scouts! ARE YOU LISTENING MARTHA BURKE
?
I think that if you feel
homosexuality is wrong, it is not a phobia, it is an opinion.
I have the right 'NOT'
to be tolerant of others because they are different, weird, or tick me off.
When 70% of the people
who get arrested are black, in cities where 70% of the population is black,
that is not racial profiling; it is the Law of Probability.
I believe that if you
are selling me a milkshake, a pack of cigarettes, a newspaper
or a hotel room, you must do it in English! As a matter of
fact, if you want to be an American citizen, you should have
to speak English!
My father and
grandfather didn't die in vain so you can leave the countries you
were born in to come over and disrespect ours.
I think the police
should have every right to shoot you if you threaten them after they tell you
to stop. If you can't understand the word 'freeze' or 'stop' in English, see
the above lines.
I don't think just
because you were not born In this country, you are qualified for any special
loan programs, government sponsored bank loans or tax breaks, etc., so you can
open a hotel, coffee shop, trinket store, or any other business.
We did not go to the aid
of certain foreign countries and risk our lives in wars to defend their
freedoms, so that decades later they could come over here and tell us our constitution
is a living document; and open to their interpretations.
I don't hate the rich; I
don't pity the poor. I know pro wrestling is fake, but so are movies and
television. That doesn't stop you from watching them.
I think Bill Gates has
every right to keep every penny he made and continue to make more. If it ticks
you off, go and invent the next operating system that's better, and put your
name on the building.
It doesn't take a whole
village to raise a child right, but it does take a parent to stand up to the
kid; and smack their little behinds when necessary, and say 'NO!'
I think tattoos and
piercing are fine if you want them, but please don't pretend they are a
political statement. And, please, stay home until that new lip ring heals. I
don't want to look at your ugly infected mouth as you serve me French fries!
I am sick of 'Political
Correctness.' I know a lot of black people, and not a single one of them was
born in Africa; so how can they be 'African-Americans'? Besides, Africa is a continent.
I don't go around saying I am a European American because my great, great,
great, great, great, great grandfather was from
Europe. I am proud to be from America and nowhere else, and if you don't like
my point of view, tough”. – Andy Rooney
I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO
THE FLAG, OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA , AND TO THE REPUBLIC, FOR WHICH IT
STANDS, ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE,
WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!
I was asked to send this
on if I agree or delete if I don't. It is said that 86% of Americans believe in
God. Therefore I have a very hard time under-standing why there is such a problem
in having "In God We Trust" on our money and having "God"
in the Pledge of Allegiance. Why don't we just tell the 14% to BE QUIET!!!
I have attached an
article: *The Secret of America's Strength* - totally relevant to the above.
