Viva America!

I went to an MLS soccer game the other day and our defense flubbed up major league, taking out our own goalie and allowing for one of the players from the Chivas to score. I was quite perturbed when the stadium erupted with cheers. This was a home game and there were probably more people there to cheer for the Chivas than the home team. Then I realized who the crowd was and turned quickly racist. Racist is the term used by them for me. I use a different term. That term is patriotic, or else scared...

I have nothing against the latin culture. Quite the contrary, actually, considering my choice of profession being landscaping. I am angry about the people that choose to break our rules to come here. My friend, Greg would say this is an emotional and not a logical argument, and he is right. However, there are very logical implications on my every day life with them being here. I refer mostly to the fear that has swept our country with the move to be politically correct. I won't spend much time on this blog, because it has all been said before by people much more eloquent than me. But why do we have 'latin heritage' month on the Disney Channel? And to take the topic one step further to a more deeply seeded issue, why do we have Black History Month? I think it is very important to know that not only white europeans contributed to the development of our country, but why does it have to be about color or ethnicity? I have got to tell you that my cotton gin is about overflowing with menial facts about black contributors to society. I would bet money that more people in this country now come out of school knowing about the cotton gin than Henry Ford or the Wright brothers. I am not trying to argue one way or another who contributed more, but let's not cram menial information down our children's throats in the name of being politically correct! Teach the important stuff. All of the important stuff and don't let it be about color.

Lastly, please cheer for the home team! Oh, and go to my blog and vote for your choice for President!
