Proud to be an American - Part II

I've been surfing and visiting quite a few sites and maybe because it's been "my lucky day," [insert sarcasm here] most of these sites that I came upon are very verbal about their thoughts on President Bush and how they are unhappy in how he is running our country. It bothered me a lot that so many people had nothing but negative things to say about the USA. So, I come back to my site and wrote how I felt about it. I received a couple of comments. One person took my comments personally.

Please don't take my posts personally unless you see your name written on 'em (sighs). Anyhow, I don't think the person read my post with an open mind, but instead with a defensive one.

Lighten up, ok?

The second comment I received appeared to be polite but cautioned me about just because a person disagrees with what the president is doing does not mean they are bashing the USA. Well, to me it is bashing the USA because the president represents the USA.

My challenge: Does anyone have anything pleasant or encouraging to say about our country? Puhlease don't comment unless you do.

By the way, mobius and raven, thanks for your comments to my entry "Proud to be an American." :) Shine on you two!
