A message from the Chief:

Now comes AAAA: Americans for the Americanization of an American America.

There is true patriotism and there is lying patriotism. This group is devoted to knowing and sharing the dark & shining examples of that splendid distinction, mindful of Samuel Johnson's delcaration on April 7th, 1775: "Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel."

DO YOU KNOW THE DIFFERENCE between real patriotism and jingoism? Can you tell when a cause is waving the flag or the flag is waving the cause? Sometimes, it's a very fine line, and you have to put on your thinking caps (fast-disappearing headgear in this country).

And, there are so many kinds: Coonskin thinking caps, skimmer thinking caps, cowboy thinking caps, ten-gallon thinking caps, cocked thinking caps, campaign thinking caps, blasting thinking caps, polar ice thinking caps ....

Here, feel free to post your news and op/ed items on the subject, (real or imagined, depending on your sources) your photos, videos, arrest warrants, et al.

The AAAA welcomes all points of view (as long as they're American). SEE? Didn't that statement get your juices in a wrangle? That's why we're here.

Who knows, we may even getting around to talking about the difference between freedom and liberty.

Hold on to your mums and apple-ish pies, folks.

WELCOME! And, God (as you like it) Bless America!
