    Great America Panel... All-American New Year... Great Americans of 2010...

    Where do they get off deciding what's American?

Au contraire, that's exactly what this particular sub-forum is for - dredging the moonbat-infested swamp of DU and then throwing the contents of the dredge bucket on the deck here for all to examine and mock.

Carlos seems to have inadvertently left this particular dip's name out of the clip - it's one I've not noticed before, one LLStarks - perhaps a renamed persona, since it has 1000+ posts yet I can't recall seeing its blathering before.  Maybe it just never said anything quotably stupid before, though.

The nerve of Faux Snooze to call people who love this country Americans. I bet they call the goons at DU American haters when in realty they are the true patriots, just ask them and they will tell you.  :-)

Well given that everyone at the DUmp hates America why should we be surprised at this.

Have they never heard the leaders of their own party? How many times have I heard some leftist nut-job or congressman or whatever say, "The American people won't tolerate..." or "The American people don't want..."

They're the ones that want to put words in our mouths or tell us what we're thinking. In the case of Fox News they're using it as a description. They "great American panel" is...wait for it...American. Americans on a television show in America. Must be a conspiracy. As for the new year. If we were in France or Albania wouldn't we then have the All-French New Year or All-Albanian New Year? But since we're here we say "America". I suppose we could say the "Western Hemisphere" New Year. That would be as nonspecific milquetoast as they want to make the country. As for the great American's of 2010, what the heck do they care, they don't think there are any great Americans.

Who the hell are you to decide when and how the use of "American" is offensive?

I find it deeply offensive that these DUmp monkeys call themselves, "Americans". They are anything but, at least in mentality and attitudes.

Russ, they are there and they are trying to drag the rest of the country down with them.  Remember, they're not happy unless they're not happy--and making others equally unhappy.

Why do we Conservatives believe Liberals are out to destroy America.??

None of these Jerks want to see any changes unless it benefits them in the short run.

To my surprise and shock I found out yesterday that one of my children at her age is a liberal, sort of like I was at her age.

Oh MY Lord, it is like looking in a mirror and seeing myself back at her age. She is an idealist and still holds some Conservative ideas, anti-abortion and proud of her son that will go to boot camp next months.    

She still holds out hope that Obama will save the country, I figure in 5 years she will do the two step backwards and as I did quit this foolishness.

Most people find them deeply offensive.  I am constantly steering people toward the DUmp because that is one sure way to increase the numbers voting conservative!

Here is your CLASSIC example of the mental disorder in full spasm.
We live in America. Fox is pro-American compared to the mindless dolts on the MSM channels, that's for sure.

That makes too much sense.  They would rather have the government ban Fox News.  Do you really expect the liberals to have to change the channel on a remote?  That takes too much work.
