Changes

Editor-Sitnews,
As the Country watches the huge social changes imposed by the
current liberal administration, many are and more are, becoming
concerned as to the Nation holding together with civility. I
can not attest to the validity of the following piece, however,
even if it were not written by the person listed, it still tells
well!!
Regards,
A. M. Johnson

American liberals, leftists,
social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters,
et al:
We have stuck together since the late 1950's, but the whole
of this latest election process has made me realize that I want
a divorce.... I know we tolerated each other for many years for
the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship
has run its course.
Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever
agree on what is right so let's just end it on friendly terms.
We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and
go our own way.
Here is a model separation agreement:
Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass
each taking a portion. That will be the difficult part, but I
am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After
that, it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives
can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such
distinct and disparate tastes.
We don't like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You
are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU. Since you hate
guns and war, we'll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and
the military. You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O'Donnell
(You are, however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle
big enough to move all three of them).
We'll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical
companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street. You can have your beloved
homeless, homeboys, hippies and illegal aliens. We'll keep the
hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO's and rednecks. We'll keep
the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood ..
You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we'll retain the
right to invade and hammer places that threaten us.. You can
have the peaceniks and war protesters. When our allies or our
way of life are under assault, we'll help provide them security.
We'll keep our Judeo-Christian values.. You are welcome to Islam,
Scientology, Humanism and Shirley McClain. You can also have
the U.N.. but we will no longer be paying the bill.
We'll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks and oversized luxury cars.
You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find..
You can give everyone healthcare if you can find any practicing
doctors. We'll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and
not a right. We'll keep The Battle Hymn of the Republic and
the National Anthem. I'm sure you'll be happy to substitute Imagine,
I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing, Kum Ba Ya or We Are the
World.
We'll practice trickle down economics and you can give trickle
up poverty your best shot. Since it often so offends you, we'll
keep our history, our name and our flag.
Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along to other
like minded liberal and conservative patriots and if you do not
agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting, I'll
bet you Answer which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.
Sincerely,
John J. Wall
Law Student and an American
P.S. Also, please take Ted
Turner, Sean Penn, Martin Sheen, Barbara Streisand, & Jane
Fonda with you..
P. S. S. And we won't have to press 1 for English.
