>>>>1) Only in America, could politicians talk about the greed of the rich
at a-$35,000.00 a plate-campaign fund-raising event.=0A>>>>>=0A>>>>>2)
Only in America, could people claim that the government still discriminates
against black Americans when they have a black President, a black Attorney
General, and roughly 18% of the federal workforce is black while only 12%
of the population is black.=0A>>>>>=0A>>>>>3) Only in America, could they h
ave had the two people most responsible for our tax code, Timothy Geithner,
the head of the Treasury Department and Charles Rangel who once ran the Wa
ys and Means Committee, BOTH turn out to be-tax cheats-who are in favor
of-higher-taxes.=0A>>>>>=0A>>>>>4) Only in America, can they have terr
orists kill people in the name of Allah and have the media primarily react
by fretting that Muslims might be harmed by the backlash.=0A>>>>>=0A>>>>>5)
Only in America, would they make people who want to legally become America
n citizens wait for years in their home countries and pay tens of thousands
of dollars for the privilege while we discuss letting anyone who sneaks in
to the country illegally just ''magically'' become American citizens.=0A>>>
>>=0A>>>>>6) Only in America, could the people who believe in balancing the
budget and sticking by the country's Constitution be thought of as "extrem
ists."=0A>>>>>=0A>>>>>7) Only in America, could you need to present a-dri
ver's license-to cash a check or buy alcohol, but not to vote.=0A>>>>>=0A
>>>>>8) Only in America, could people demand the government investigate whe

when the return on equity invested in a major U.S.oil company (Marathon Oil
) is less than half of a company making tennis shoes (Nike).=0A>>>>>=0A>>>>
>9) Only in America, could the government collect more tax dollars from the
people than any nation in recorded history, still spend a Trillion dollars
more than it has per year - for total-spending of $7-Million PER MINUTE,
and complain that it doesn't have nearly enough money.=0A>>>>>=0A>>>>>10)
Only in America, could the-rich people---who pay 86% of all income ta
