[BITList] not by an Australian Dentist -- What An American Is

[x50type at cox.net]

Being rather inquisitive and doubtful [of the stuff along these lines Frank serves up, {he must frequent some outré sites to get it}] – I researched the article.
the first red flag to its veracity is why would an Australian dentist waste his time composing such an ‘editorial’?
why not an American lumber jack [say], or an American Idol fan?
Surprise, surprise - turns out this is ‘stuff’ from a well known right wing nut  Peter Ferrara, [its from 11 years ago] and not from an Australian dentist at all [disappointed?].....................!
it falls into the ‘glowing and warmly enthusiastic praise’  category – commonly known as American bullshit.

PS  good one, Frank.

                                Written by an Australian Dentist   

                                To Kill an American 
                                You probably missed this in the rush of news, but there was actually a report that someone in Pakistan had published in a newspaper, an offer of a reward to anyone who killed an American, any American.  

                                So an Australian dentist wrote an editorial the following day to let everyone know what an American is.  So they would know when they found one.  (Good one, mate!!!!)  

                                'An American is English, or French, or Italian, Irish, German, Spanish, Polish, Russian or Greek.  An American may also be Canadian, Mexican, African, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Australian, Iranian, Asian, Arab,  Pakistani or Afghan. 

                                An American may also be a Comanche, Cherokee, Osage, Blackfoot, Navaho, Apache, Seminole or one of the many other tribes known as native Americans..

                                An American is Christian, or he could be Jewish, or Buddhist, or Muslim.  In fact, there are more Muslims in America than in   Afghanistan ..  The only difference is that in America they are free to worship as each of them chooses. 

                                An American is also free to believe in no religion.. For that he will answer only to God, not to the government, or to armed thugs claiming to speak for the government and for God.


                                An American lives in the most prosperous

                                land in the history of the world..

                                The root of that prosperity can be found in the Declaration of Independence , which recognizes the God given right of each person to the pursuit of happiness.

                                An American is generous.. Americans have helped out just about every other nation in the world in their time of need, never asking a thing in return. 


                                When Afghanistan was over-run by the Soviet army 20 years ago, Americans came with arms and supplies to enable the people to win back their country! 


                                As of the morning of September 11, Americans had given more than any other nation to the poor in Afghanistan ..

                                The national symbol of America , The Statue of Liberty , welcomes your tired and your poor, the wretched refuse of your teeming shores, the homeless, tempest tossed.  These in fact are the people who built America   


                                Some of them were working in the Twin Towers the morning of September 11, 2001, earning a better life for their families.  It's been told that the World Trade Center victims were from at least 30 different countries, cultures, and first languages, including those that aided and abetted the terrorists.
