groups

I love it for all that.

I love it for all of us who are passionate about wanting America to be the best possible society. Even tho we all disagree about what that might be.

I love this group because it's about what pisses us off.

Everything you said is what I love about this country. Anyone who doesn't feel the same or comes here to trash or destroy is welcome to leave. THIS IS MY COUNTRY!!!!!!!!

What do I love about America. I love the Native American culture. I remember reading "The song of Hiawatha" as a child and loving it. The oneness with nature, and I came to live in Michigan, Hiawatha country and that is amazing. I love the wilderness and wild places. The wolves and bear, the forests and lakes of northern Michigan. The great Lakes. My favorite place is called Paradise in the Upper Peninsula. I love the Copper Harbor area where a lot of Cornish miners went for a better live and died in the mines. I enjoy going around and looking at their graves and seeing how hard it had to have been for them back then. We have seen a lot of the States and its hard to say what I like best. When my son was in boot camp we went out to San Diego to visit him and on the way went through Joshua Tree, I loved the desert. Arizona and New Mexico and the Colorado River. My favorite charactor is Crazy Horse and so we went all over the Dakota's visiting places he was. Bear Bute........climbing up that sacred mountain and seeing the view from the top, amazing. I have not yet been to the New England States or maine but will some day. The south is too hot for me but I loved Savannah. Both my boys were stationed down there as was my daughter who was married to a Marine at the time.
I like the people here, at least the ones I know.............and yes the freedom but coming from a free country I think that is a given. Its those who come from other places that appreciate it the most.
I am not really into American history too much its just not old enough haha.
I have no real desire to see the cities but can not get enough of the countryside. Its amazing how vast it is.
I am not too thrilled with the school system, the standard of education here but we are being positive and so I will move on.
I love where I live. My husband is a builder and so things are not so good at the moment but its not been all bad.
I think that we take things for granted here. Its a privalege to be able to choose what work we want to do.
I worked in a bank for 21 years and enjoyed that. I met great people and made life long friends.
Because I do genealogy I also appreciate what a privalege it is to actually have leasure time and to look forwards some day (maybe) of retiring. I am hoping to a be able to move to a nice place in Northern Michigan and be surrounded by woods and nature, listen to the loons in the mornings instead of traffic.
Thats a start..............so what else do you want to know?

I love America for all those reasons and the following:

1. I can own a gun and protect myself and my family.

2. I can read any book I want including The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Catcher in the Rye and the Bible.

3. I can state my opinions, beliefs and views and no one can stop me, even if they are politically incorrect.

4. I can be a racist if I want (I'm not; but I can be).

5. I can have as many children as I want (or don't) without government interference.

6. I can protest against my government when I am unhappy with its actions.

7. I can be pissed off at anyone for any reason at any time.

8. I can smoke and drink alcohol to access (I don't but I can) - in fact I don't either at all. But I can if I want to...

9. I can be overweight or I can be skinny.

10. I can dress-up or dress down.

11. I can laugh; I can cry.

in other words...I am free to be me.

We are all free to be who we want to be, except the criminals. You can even be an a$$hole every day as long as you don't break the law. You can say whatever you want as long as it's not about killing someone in the government. We have so many choices that some people are paralyzed at the thought of having to make a choice!

Well, we all agree....We love America

Love it or leave it-simple

I love how the East Coast is so different from the West Coast in topography as well as ideology. Same with North and South and all the places in between. ( Read the book The Blue Highways).

I love New Jersey--yup. I do, I really do. I love its mountains and down the shore and places like Schooley's Mountain and Sussex County and The Great Swamp and how close it is to NY so that I can get a cultural boost every once in a while when I have $500 to spend in one day.

I love the fact that we have been a refuge for people from other countries seeking assylum from oppression and that we have worked hard at giving civil liberties to our own people from whom we have denied it in the past--we grew and continue to grow, I hope.

I love America because:
I can be a bigot
A racist
Prejudice
Presumptuous
Overbearing
Obnoxious
Opinionated
Love em
Hate em
Walk on em or over em or both
Spit on the sidewalk
Kick em when they are down, never up because they can kick you.
And living in a capitalistic system, where if you work and put your best foot forward, manage what you earn intelligently, life isn't a paycheck to paycheck living standard.

America you are the greatest, not perfect but the greatest.

Can manage a marriage for over 48 years and both of us happy.
