1) Only in America could politicians talk about the greed
of the rich at a $35,000 a plate campaign fund raising event.
2) Only in America could people claim that the government
still discriminates against black Americans when we have a black President, a
black Attorney General, and roughly 18% of the federal workforce is black.
3) Only in America could we have had the two people most
responsible for our tax code, Timothy Geithner, the head of the Treasury
Department and Charles Rangel who once ran the Ways and Means Committee, BOTH
turn out to be tax cheats who are in favor of higher taxes.
4) Only in America will you find people who burn the
American flag and call America an "imperialist nation," but who get
offended if you say they're not patriotic.
5) Only in America can we have terrorists kill people in
the name of Allah and have the media primarily react by fretting that Muslims
might be harmed by the backlash.
6) Only in America could someone drinking a $5 latte and
texting to his friends on an iPhone 4 complain that the government allows some
people to make too much money.
7) Only in America would people take rappers who brag
about shooting people and selling drugs seriously when they complain the police
are targeting them unfairly.
8) Only in America would we make people who want to
legally become American citizens wait for years in their home countries and pay
tens of thousands of dollars for the privilege while we discuss letting anyone
who sneaks into the country illegally just become American citizens.
9) Only in America could the people who believe in
balancing the budget and sticking by the country's Constitution be thought of
as "extremists."
10) Only in America could the most vicious foes of
successful conservative women be self-proclaimed feminists and the National
Organization for Women.
11) Only in America could you need to present a driver's
license to cash a check or buy alcohol, but not to vote.
12) Only in America can we have terrorists fly planes
into our buildings and have some people’s first thought be "what did we do
to make them hate us?"
13) Only in America would we think teaching kids at
college is an appropriate job for communists, terrorists, and other dregs of
humanity.
14) Only in America could people demand the government
investigate whether the oil companies are gouging the public because the price
of gas went up when for every penny of profit the oil companies make, the
government tacks on roughly 24 cents’ worth of taxes.
15) Only in America could the first people asked to weigh
in on the seriousness of a racial incident by the media be professional race
hustlers like Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and Ben Jealous. In other words, it's
like calling in a car dealer as a neutral source on whether or not you need to
get a new car.
16) Only in America does airport security put its hands
on your underwear....while you're wearing it.
17) Only in America could the government force a skating
rink to have handicapped parking spots and Braille on the ATM machines.
18) Only in America could the government collect more tax
dollars from the people than any nation ever has before in all of recorded
history, still spend a trillion dollars more that it has per year, and complain
that it doesn't have nearly enough money.
19) Only in America could the rich people who pay 86% of
all income taxes be accused of not paying their "fair share" by
people who don't pay any income taxes at all.
20) Only in America could the people who approve of
slaughtering 25 million females babies via abortion accuse OTHER PEOPLE of
waging a "war on women."
