A.. Is it that we have electricity and running water 24 hours a day, 7 Days a week?

B.. Is our unhappiness the result of having air conditioning in the summer and heating in the winter?

C.. Could it be that 95.4 percent of these unhappy folks have a job?

D.. Maybe it is the ability to walk into a grocery store at any time and see more food in moments
    than Darfur has seen in the last year?

E.. Maybe it is the ability to drive our cars and trucks from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic
    Ocean without having to present identification papers as we move through each state?

F.. Or possibly the hundreds of clean and safe motels we would find along the way
    that can provide temporary shelter?

G.. I guess having thousands of restaurants with varying cuisine from around the world is just
    not good enough either.

H.. Or could it be that when we wreck our car, emergency workers show up and provide services to help
     all and even send a helicopter to take you to the hospital.

I.. Perhaps you are one of the 80 percent of Americans who own a home.

J.. You may be upset with knowing that in the unfortunate case of a fire, a group of trained firefighters
     will appear in moments and use top notch equipment to extinguish the flames, thus saving you,
     your family, and your belongings.

K.. Or if, while at home watching one of your many flat screen TVs, a burglar or prowler intrudes,
    an officer equipped with a gun and a bullet-proof vest will come to defend you and your family
     against attack or loss.

L.. This all in the backdrop of a neighborhood free of bombs or militias raping and pillaging the residents.
    Neighborhoods where 90% of teen agers own cell phones and computers.

M.. How about the complete religious, social and political freedoms we enjoy that are the envy of
     everyone in the world?

Maybe that is what has 67% of you folks unhappy.

The Fact is, we are the largest group of ungrateful, spoiled brats the world has ever seen.
No wonder the world loves the U.S., yet has a great disdain for its citizens. They see us for what we are.
The most blessed people in the world who do nothing but complain about what
we don't have, and what we hate about the country instead of thanking the good Lord we live here.

I know, I know. What about the president who took us into war and has no plan to get us out?
The president who has a measly 31 percent approval rating?
[X] Is this the same president who guided the nation in the dark days after 9/11?
[X] The president that cut taxes to bring an economy out of recession?
[X] Could this be the same guy who has been called every name in the book for succeeding
    in keeping all the spoiled ungrateful brats safe from terrorist attacks?
[X] The commander in chief of an all-volunteer army that is out there defending you and me?

Did you hear how bad Our President is on the news or a talk show?
Did this news affect you so much, make you so unhappy you couldn't take a look around
For yourself and see all the good things and be glad?
Think about it......are you upset at the President because he actually caused you personal pain OR is it
because the 'Media' told you he was failing to kiss your sorry ungrateful behind every day.

Make no mistake about it.

The troops in Iraq and Afghanistan have volunteered to serve, and in many cases may have died for your freedom.
There is currently no draft in this country. They didn't have to go. They are able to refuse to go and end up with
either a ''general'' discharge, Or Worst Case Scenario A "dishonorable" discharge after a few days in the brig'.

So why then the flat-out discontentment in the minds of 69 percent of Americans?

Say what you want but I blame it on the media. If it bleeds it leads and they specialize in bad news.
Everybody will watch a car crash with blood and guts. How many will watch kids selling lemonade at the corner?
The media knows this and media outlets are for-profit corporations. They offer what sells, and when criticized, try
to defend their actions by 'justifying' them in one way or another.
Just ask why they tried to allow a murderer like O.J. Simpson to write a book about how he didn't kill his wife,
but if he did he would have done it this way......INSANE!

Turn off Certain TV News Channels, You Know The One's I'm Talking About. The UNfair And UNbalanced News, Use Newsweek, The Chicago Tribune And New York Times for the bottom of your bird cage.

Then start being grateful for all we have as country. There is exponentially more good than bad.
We are among the most blessed people on Earth and should thank God several times a day, or at
least be thankful and appreciative.

With hurricanes, tornados, fires out of control, mud slides, flooding, severe thunderstorms tearing up the country
from one end to another, and with the threat of terrorist attacks,
'Are we sure this is a good time to take God out of the 'Pledge of Allegiance?'

DON'T EVER FORGET.......

WE'RE NOT ALONE IN THE FIGHT FOR FREEDOM....
This Is An Awesome Video/Song Written By An Australian Girl, Beccy Cole
Who Answered Those Who Boycotted Her Recordings Because She Supports
The "Diggers", The Australian Soldiers Fighting In Afghanistan And Iraq.
Simply Put, She Says It All...
Thank You Beccy.

Only Two Defining Forces Have Offered To Die For You,
Jesus Christ And The American Soldier.

One Died For Your Soul; The Other For Your Freedom.

THE AMERICAN SOLDIER

In The Midst Of All Evil, We Stand Our Ground,
And We Protect Our Country, From All Terror Around.

Peace And Not War, Is What Some People Say.
But I'll Give My Life, To Keep The American Way.

Fight Against The People Who Hate Us, Fight For The Young
So They All May Have
The Greatest Freedom We've Won

Don't Ever Forget What They Have Done.
If You Stand Up For Freedom,
You'll Stand With Pride When The Fight Is Done.
