per Andy Rooney

     EXCELLENT analysis of the world situation. Some things haven't
changed much.
     If someone said this on TV today, they would be fired tomorrow.
Andy Rooney is 100% correct.  
     Andy Rooney was one in a million. 
 
     At the end of '60 Minutes' he usually had his own 10-minute
segment that, unbelievably, was never censored by CBS. He's probably
the only one who could have gotten away with this.
   
Andy Rooney once said . . .

     **“I don't think being a minority makes you a victim of any-
thing 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.

     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, which is
why there are no girls allowed.  Girls belong in the Girl Scouts!
 
     I think that if you feel homosexuality is wrong, it is not a
phobia, it is an opinion.

     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 believe that if you are selling me a milkshake, 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 you 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 don't think just because you were not born in this country,
you are qualified for any special loan programs, government-spon-
sored 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.

     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...”

     I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG, OF THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA, AND TO THE REPUBLIC, FOR WHICH IT STANDS, ONE NATION
UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!**

     People like Andy Rooney were rare and usually dead on when
they have lived long enough to know how to make their point.

     This is what the First Amendment is there for and it is why
the founding fathers created the best document ever written.

     They wrote the Constitution based upon God's inspired Word
that challenges us ALL to have faith and strive to be more like
Jesus so we have a power to guide us in a direction that gives
us the strength trust in the Lord and know how to recognize the
evil that is trying to destroy ALL God gave us and gave His only
son to die for our sins.

  Conservatively,
  John
