Andy Rooney Hooray !! This actually happened !!
Andy Rooney said on 60 minutes a few weeks back:
(for those of you that don't know Andy Rooney, he is a 82 year old US TV
commentator)
I like big cars, big boats, big motorcycles, big houses and big
campfires.
I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some
governmental stooge with a bad comb-over who wants to give it away to
crack addicts for squirting out babies.
Guns do not make you a killer. I think killing makes you a killer. You
can
kill someone with a baseball bat or a car, but no one is trying to ban
you from driving to the ball game.
I believe they are called the Boy Scouts for a reason, that is why there
are no girls allowed. Girls belong in the Girl Scouts! ARE YOU LISTENING
MARTHA BURKE?
I think that if you feel homosexuality is wrong, it is not a phobia, it
is an opinion.
I don't think being a minority makes you a victim of anything except
numbers. The only things I can think of that are truly discriminatory
are
things like the United Negro College Fund, Jet Magazine, Black
Entertainment Television, and Miss Black America. Try to have things
like
the United Caucasian College Fund, Cloud Magazine, White Entertainment
Television, or Miss White America; and see what happens. Jesse Jackson
will be knocking down your door.
I have the right "NOT" to be tolerant of others because they are
different,
weird, or tick me off.
When 70% of the people who get arrested are black, in cities where 70%
of
the population is black, that is not racial profiling, it is the Law of
Probability.
I know what sex is, and there are not varying degrees of it. If I
received
sex from one of my subordinates in my office, it wouldn't be a private
matter or my personal business. I would be "FIRED" immediately!
I believe that if you are selling me a milk shake, a pack of cigarettes,
a
newspaper or a hotel room, you must do it in English! As a matter of
fact,
if you want to be an American citizen, you should have to speak English!
My father and grandfather didn't die in vain so you can leave the
countries
you were born in to come over and disrespect ours. I think the police
should have every right to shoot your sorry self if you threaten them
after
they tell you to stop. If you can't understand the word "freeze" or
"stop"
in English, see the above lines.
I feel much safer letting a machine with no political affiliation
recount
votes when needed. I know what the definition of lying is.
I don't think just because you were not born in this country, you are
qualified for any special loan programs, government sponsored bank loans
or
tax breaks, etc., so you can open a hotel, coffee shop, trinket store,
or any other business.
We did not go to the aid of certain foreign countries and risk our lives
in
wars to defend their freedoms, so that decades later they could come
over
here and tell us our constitution is a living document; and open to
their interpretations.
I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor. I know pro wrestling is
fake, but so are movies and television. That doesn't stop you from
watching them.
I believe a self-righteous liberal or conservative with a cause is more
dangerous than a Hell's Angel with an attitude.
I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and
continue
to make more. If it ticks you off, go and invent the next operating
system
that's better, and put your name on the building. Ask your buddy that
invented the Internet to help you.
It doesn't take a whole village to raise a child right, but it does take
a
parent to stand up to the kid; and smack their little behinds when
necessary, and say "NO!"
"I think tattoos and piercing are fine if you want them, but please
don't
pretend they are a political statement. And, please, stay home until
that
new lip ring heals. I don't want to look at your ugly infected mouth as
you serve me french fries!
I am sick of "Political Correctness." I know a lot of black people, and
not a single one of them was born in Africa; so how can they be
"African-Americans"? Besides, Africa is a continent. I don't go around
saying I am a European-American because my great, great, great, great,
great, great grandfather was from Europe. I am proud to be from America
and nowhere else.
And if you don't like my point of view, tough. DON'T PASS IT ON!!

I don't no....I remember him saying a lot of this....a while back.I watch him whenever I can ,he's funny.
Death to Tyrants!!! Lev 26:14-39
Those who would offer any interpretation that would relegate Amendment II to "relic" status of a bygone era are blatantly stating that the remainder of the Bill of Rights isn't worth a damn, either.
Luke 22:36.
Sounds like quotes from Ted Nugent to me and I couldn't agree more....Man, don't get me started....
Thats the whole point man.......get STARTED!!! oh and welcome!

-I believe politicians are more concerned about being reelected than ANY principle. Furthermore, I believe we can all tell when a politician is lying to you because his lips are moving. Any of you ever watch the news? See??
Death to Tyrants!!!

Remember how many seats were lost after AWB passage? Vae victis!
