some a**hole posted that stupid "i am a bad american" screed
on my non-political message board,myspace to be exact.is there a ready-made point by point rebuttal of that trash i could use anywhere around here? i already gave links to snopes http://www.snopes.com/language/document/carlin.htm but i have a feeling i'll need more ammo...

1. To do what? Debunk what's being said, or that Carlin is the author? n/t
?

2. Somebody on DU wrote a scathing parody of it a year or so ago
I hope that somebody comes forward and claims it, because it was really good, and I can't remember who wrote it or when it was.

3. Living document
I did not go to some foreign country and risk my life in vain and defend our constitution so that decades later you can tell me it's a living document ever changing and is open to interpretation.


So I assume the writer is against adding an ammendment defining marriage.

I disagree with the writer about the Taco Bell dog, but agree about loud stereos in cars.

Mostly it's a bunch of nothing.

4. i googled it
and found numerous sites where they show it wasn't written by carlin,or andy rooney or ted nugent for that matter.the earliest version is called "i am a bad republican" which probably originated on freerupublic.i'd like the parody ZLydia Leftcoast is talking about,i vaguely remember reading it and thinking it would be perfect.
