I may not be a REAL AMERICAN. My grandparents emigrated here from Europe. I went to school in such places as Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Los Angeles, California. I have never been to Alaska or lived in any southern towns. I was never drafted into the army. I supported the Vietnam War until I realized that the United States had no plan to win. I then joined the Beverly Hills Young Democrats and I campaigned as a Democrat. I did live in Canada for six months but believe me I pleaded with my parents to move to Erie, Pennsylvania. After crying continuously for those first months of my life I finally got my way. As an adult I am involved in local community events but I admit they are in an integrated area where there are Blacks, Hispanics, Indians, Sikhs, Muslims, etc.
According to Congresswoman Michele Bachmann and Governor Sarah Palin I am not a real American. Bachmann claimed that Senator Obama and his wife Michelle may hold “anti-American views” and even called for the media to investigate other members of Congress to “find out if they are pro-America or anti-America.” Sarah Palin adressed a big crowd in a southern town called all of those attending the “pro-Americans.” She implied many others in America are anti-American. Of course there was no definitions provided. Bachmann’s views were expressed on Hardball.
Please watch this Bachmann interview.
Both of these women remind me of Joe McCarthy. Does anyone remember him?
