Lately it's pretty hard to find a reason to be proud of America. Mitch McConnell is blocking a bipartisan bill to lower drug prices and the Supreme Court is shredding our rights. The Congress is not passing the bills we need. The only thing I see that has been good is the US is supporting the Ukaraine. Pretty sad.

***the Supreme Court is shredding our rights.
>>>That is a lie. They are establishing where are rights belong for the decision as to what they are or should be. By the way, there is no constitutional right to a******n. But the States can decide that they will allow it and under what conditions and limitations. As it should be.

***The Congress is not passing the bills we need.
>>>Hopefully they are not passing the bills you think we need. But what they should be passing is things like finishing the border wall.

***The only thing I see that has been good is the US is supporting the Ukaraine.
>>>As stated by the administration and so many others before that war started, that is not our war and we have no interests there. We don't belong there and if that POS POTUS wasn't spending our money there the war would be over by now, many less deaths and Ukraine and Russia settling there differences at the conference table like Putin wanted before the war. Remember, it was obama/biden meddling in Ukraine with an illegal c**p in 2014, that is where the escalation of hostilities really started.

***Pretty sad
>>>What is pretty sad is you will never get it.

What you fail to acknowledge is that there are a number of countries where people are happier than here. And in many ways enjoy more freedom. This is true in much of Scandinavia and other parts of Western Europe. Along with places like New Zealand. It all depends on what is important to you. Education, health care, decent dignified work. To answer your question, I am proud of our nations potential and our ability to make it better by acknowledging our successes and learning from our failures.

The federal government and its population of 4.3 million officials, politicians, bureaucrats, appointees, and employees
IS NOT the United States of America.

Put on your thinking cap and see if you can explain why.

Toby Keith says it best, because not matter our politics, when it comes to screwing with America, lets just say "not a wise decision! From his song "courtesy of the red white and blue".

American girls and American guys
We'll always stand up and salute
We'll always recognize
When we see Old Glory flying
There's a lot of men dead
So we can sleep in peace at night when we lay down our head

My daddy served in the army
Where he lost his right eye but he flew a f**g out in our yard
Until the day that he died
He wanted my mother, my brother, my sister and me
To grow up and live happy
In the land of the free

Now this nation that I love has fallen under attack
A mighty sucker punch came flyin' in from somewhere in the back
Soon as we could see clearly
Through our big black eye
Man, we lit up your world
Like the fourth of July

Hey Uncle Sam, put your name at the top of his list
And the Statue of Liberty started shakin' her fist
And the eagle will fly man, it's gonna be hell
When you hear mother freedom start ringin' her bell
And it feels like the whole wide world is raining down on you
Brought to you courtesy of the red white and blue

Justice will be served and the battle will rage
This big dog will fight when you rattle his cage
And you'll be sorry that you messed with
The U.S. of A.
'Cause we'll put a boot in your ass
It's the American way

Hey uncle sam put your name at the top of his list
And the Statue of Liberty started shakin' her fist
And the eagle will fly it's gonna be hell
When you hear mother freedom start ringin' her bell
And it feels like the whole wide world is raining down on you
Brought to you courtesy of the red white and blue

Oh oh of the red, white and blue
Oh oh of my red, white and blue

Yeah, that's what happens when you put an imbecile in office. God I miss the ability to fill up my tank without having to choose rather I'll be able to afford any meat this week (if there is meat). I miss t***sferring money every month in savings for vacations and Christmas. I miss being able to afford full coverage on my auto insurance and a gym membership.

Why aren't people clambering to go there? If you will surrender your American citizenship "permanently" , I will pay for a one way flight to any of your above mentioned destinations. PS-this offer stands for 30 days!
