Americans are the most humble people on the planet. No contest. Politicians get a rating of 1.5. A sorrier bunch of whining shirkers I have never seen in my entire life. I wonder how they can stand to look at themselves in the mirror.
Having a sense of community is usually a good thing. Report for jury duty and don't lie to get out of it. Civil responsibility is generally lacking and this is probably the biggest reason we keep churning criminals back on to the streets. It's not that nobody cares but it's such a great big pain in the toochis and if you get picked and have to serve you miss work which probably means you miss money. Personally I believe with modern technology our court systems could be streamlined and we could get much better public involvement. When you can actively serve on a jury at your desk with your feet propped up munching cheetos we'll know we have some progress. But I digress. There is nothing wrong with patriotism. As long as it is tempered with understanding and respect for other cultures. Nationalism can be dangerous. I'll leave with this little gem from Mac Davis. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoRPohOA8WI&feature=related We're all jus' doin' the best we can. -Don On Thu, Jan 14, 2010 at 8:56 PM, kenny <[email protected]> wrote: > everyday task... as ben franklin says; "Small expences will sink a > large ship". who is it that makes up our thoughts of ourselves. one > whom lives life day by day surley has different thought/mooods than > one whom is of such a diffenet nature, such as one who is....about > different morals/lifestyles, if you catch, to thick/choose... > > on scales, where would you rate our politicians? say...1-5? to me, i > feel quite sequre now, so i'd say 3.8. i'll let them keep doing so. > how much trust do you hold? i feel most do trust our gov. where does > citizenship and nationality some in? should we be proud? confucious, i > belive, belived in humility. are americans humbe? ???!? > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > ""Minds Eye"" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/minds-eye?hl=en. > > > >
