    I think some of your criticisms are valid. Many are criticisms simply to be critical.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.

    LEGITIMATE criticism of specific American policies is not anti-American.

    However, that is not what you do. You whine.

    I'm not criticizing American policies, I'm criticizing US government policies. That you cannot or will not make a distinction between those two things makes you the anti-American, not me.

    Of course, having been government employees for a large percentage of your adult lives, it comes as no surprise that you two would characterize criticism of your sugar daddy as "anti-American". But from my perspective, your employer's penchant for lying to Americans and extorting them through taxation is what's really anti-American. That you two have benefited from this unjust arrangement is fairly obvious, which is why you insist on labeling any criticism of it with the "anti-American" misnomer.

    Truth hurts.

    You two have been heavily dependent on tax money throughout your adult lives, so when someone like me criticizes the unjust arrangement that you two have benefited from, you get all pissy and accuse me of being "anti-American" because you cannot defend your unearned privileges using logic and evidence.

    Given my posting history here you should know your criticism of me is unfounded. Not that it will stop you. In you it is a sickness.

    LOL.

    This is why I believe you are a kook.
