10 things all Americans should do

Rules to live by.

10 things all Americans should do.

by

Joseph F. Clarkson



1. Find the nearest servicemen and thank him that your allowed to live in a nation as free as ours.

2. Slap the first hippie you see and tell him to get a hair cut, and enlist at his first chance. (Shut up, listen up, sign up.)

3. The flag is for flying not burning or wearing on your head. Fly it proud and often.

4. Pick up a history book not written by a Berkely student and learn the Christian origins of our nation.

5. SERVE YOUR COUNTRY. That means the Army, Air Force, Navy, and Marines. Not the AmeriCorps, PeaceCorps or Coast Guard. (Shut up, listen up, sign up.)

6. When you are attacked there is no such thing as an Anti-War movement, only those who give aid and comfort to the enemy. You are either pro-Bush or pro-Terrorist.

7. Write the Attorney General and ask him to try Michael Moore for treason. Write a letter to Bill O'Reilly and thank him for the honest news analysis.

8. Vote Republican or stay home and shut up. This is a capitalist nation, communism lost thanks to Reagan. The Republicans support capitalism, democrats support communism.

9. Support the Pledge and say it publicly and often. Especially in liberal places.

10. The 10 Commandments aren't just a good idea they are the foundation of our nation and they deserve the respect as such.

Expunge

"1. Find the nearest servicemen and thank him that your allowed to live in a nation as free as ours."

He's typing this message right now, and he didn't do what he did for "thanks". I believe my relationship with him allows me to speak for him too.

"2. Slap the first hippie you see and tell him to get a hair cut, and enlist at his first chance. (Shut up, listen up, sign up.)"

He's also sitting right here typing this message right now. If Someone were to slap him, he'd most certainly take their head off. And if someone told him to enlist, he'd laugh (see #1).

"3. The flag is for flying not burning or wearing on your head. Fly it proud and often."

The flag is a symbol of hubris and repression. Burn it often.

"4. Pick up a history book not written by a Berkely student and learn the Christian origins of our nation."

Religion is another system used to control man, much like government. Expunge it.

"5. SERVE YOUR COUNTRY. That means the Army, Air Force, Navy, and Marines. Not the AmeriCorps, PeaceCorps or Coast Guard. (Shut up, listen up, sign up.)"

Did that. Now I serve it in other ways. I consider dissention to be the highest form of government. Anyone can goose-step. Anyone can be a yes man. It may make you think you're better than the rest of humanity because you were lucky enough to be born into the good life. But you're not.

"6. When you are attacked there is no such thing as an Anti-War movement, only those who give aid and comfort to the enemy. You are either pro-Bush or pro-Terrorist."

Sometimes bullies get attacked by the other kids on the playground. The bully can reflect on why no one likes him or the bully can go on the warpath. One leads to a happier life and one leads to picking oneself up off the playground many more times.

"7. Write the Attorney General and ask him to try Michael Moore for treason. Write a letter to Bill O'Reilly and thank him for the honest news analysis."

Michael Moore has never killed anyone. As a servicemeber I swore to defend the Constitution. It says Michael Moore has freedom of speech. It also says that only Congress has the power to declare war. Bush violated, abused, and twisted that Constitution that I swore allegiance to. Bush is the traitor.

"8. Vote Republican or stay home and shut up. This is a capitalist nation, communism lost thanks to Reagan. The Republicans support capitalism, democrats support communism."

You'd like me disenfranchised, huh? Again, shred that Constitution I swore to uphold.

"9. Support the Pledge and say it publicly and often. Especially in liberal places."

Fuck the pledge. Expunge it.

"10. The 10 Commandments aren't just a good idea they are the foundation of our nation and they deserve the respect as such. "

Fuck religion. Expunge it.
