So here are some of Dougie-boy's points and my retorts:

In the last three years, our country has exhibited:

· A deep surge in unabashed patriotic Americanism;Stash: Americans have always been patriotic and always will be. Evil leftist "hollywood types" to right wing Christian fundamentalists have said the pledge and been willing to fight for America if America were threatened. There was not a huge outcry about the US going into Afghanistan trying to get Bin Laden.....because it was Bin Laden that attacked the USA.

· Our flag flying high and proud;Same as above. It has always flown high and proud.

· Leaders who actually lead instead of being pulled by the polls;Tell me that when Dubya sticks to anything he says, ie,

There won't be a Homeland Security Dept. *flip*

There will be a Homeland Security Dept. *flop*

or

I won't be a nation-builder. *flip*

Unless they are not a democracy and if they have lots of oil and if they are godless moooslims and if I can foist a bunch of hooey onto the American people! *flop*

A clear distinction between good and evilI've always known that Dubya, Cheney and Ashcroft and Osama, were evil. Unlike Dougie, it didn't take a few airplanes into buildings to prove it to me.

· Political correctness (finally) beginning to go down the crapper;Gotta hand it to Dougie on this one. There are some extremely incorrect political occurances these days.

· 18-20 year olds joyfully joining, by the hundreds of thousands to defend America’s and every nation’s right to freedom ... Ooo-Rah!A whole bunch of poor and middle class 18-20 year olds have signed up to fight in Dubya's War, but not too many of America's wealthiest families are sending their boys and girls off to defend Dubya's honor....... and their the ones who are benefitting most from Dubya being in the White House.

· Good music, uplifting TV and movies, decent men and women and worthy vocations receiving the honor that’s due them;

· A solid return to traditional faith and its influence in the public square;

· The Second Amendment, the right (necessity?) to bear arms, lauded and protected;These are all lumped together because Doug has his head up his ass on all three. TV, Movies, Music....... What's changed? There were good shows and crap before 9/11 and there are good shows a crap now. There were G, R, and X movies before 9/11 and there are G, R, and X movies now. The same holds true for music.....nothing's changed. Doug's just blowing smoke.

· Less face time for Cher, Sean Penn, Susan Sarandon, Janeane Garafalo, the Dixie Chicks and Hans Blix!Cher is still doing her Fairwell tour. Sean is pumping out Oscar nominated performances, Garafalo has a great show on Air America, the Dixie Chicks are back on the road doing fine. I don't have a clue as to what Sarandon was doing before 9/11 and I don't know what she's doing now. Hans Blix probably retired seeing as how Dubya wouldn't let him finish the job he was sent to do...... Look for Weapons!

Doug blew it. It's a shame that people like this get to waste space.
