”As corny as it sounds,” he told the troops, “Damn, I’m proud to be an American!”
Ned Rice responds:
...if you were really proud to be an American, Mr. Vice President, you wouldn’t find it necessary to preface that declaration with the words, “as corny as it sounds”. If you were really proud to be an American those words wouldn’t sound corny to you. Then again, if you were really proud to be an American you wouldn’t be serving under a President who spent his last trip overseas apologizing to the world on behalf of America. You wouldn’t be serving under a President who either doesn’t recognize or simply doesn’t understand the concept of American exceptionalism.Yup. It's corny as hell to love your country. Only dumb hick rednecks say stuff like that.
.....
if there’s one person, in one scenario, who should never, ever feel that it’s corny to be proud to be an American, it would be:- The Vice President of the United States.
(there's more)
- Surrounded by hundreds of U.S. servicemen and women.
- Who have just become U.S. citizens.
- In a war zone.
- On Independence Day.
- You stupid moron, you.
