Are "true" Americans -- as opposed to those who just happen to be born here and can't afford to and/or are too entrenched in a rut to go live somewhere else more civilized like the countryside of Italy or France or peaceable escapement such as Costa Rica or Tibet (sorry, I digress) -- the ones who display the patrio-fascist yellow or red-white-blue stickers from China-supplying Wal-Mart on their gas-guzzling SUVs while blindly following the lead of a lying incompetent immoral President from a party which will stoop to any underhanded tactic to win, OR are the true Americans those who hold the ideals of the Constitution and Bill of Rights and the Founding Fathers above the next-to-nonexistent threat that some dark-skinned turban-wearing religious jihadist, who hates our guts because of the very reason that Americans don't seem to believe in anything outside of their immediate realm of personal gratification, is hiding under the bed?
