I received that idiotic mass email about Obama (Re: Fw: FW: [Fwd: Fw: FW: Barack Hussien Obama) and I mass responded debunking the “facts”, cut and paste pro-Obama material and cc’ed everyone whose inbox was involuntarily raped by this slanderous list of lies about OB.
Then I got an email from a “lady” named Maggie.

I do not know you and do not appreciate receiving this email.
If you are embarrassed by showing your US passport while going to different countries, then perhaps you should stay in one of those other countries.
I will put your email address in my “do not accept” file.
Proud to be an American.

Wow.
You are right. I don’t know you and I’m glad I don’t.
As for “proud to be an American”, really? When is the last time you traveled abroad?
As for my patriotism, I served in the USAF, my father was drafted for Vietnam, his father was drafted for WWII and served under Patton during the Battle of the Bulge. In fact, I can trace my family all the way back to the Revolutionary War.
That’s just my father’s side.
My only advice to you is: Read more.
As much as my email offended you. I felt the same receiving that idiotic Obama email.
I’m not saying you sent it to me but I wanted to make sure that all the people that received it have a chance to see it from a different perspective.
I’m sure you will not read this and the this will go directly to your “do not accept” file. You have been single-narrowed minded your entire life. Why would you change now?
Not proud to be an American (for now),
Dan
I felt is was my obligation as an American to send this to my friend Michael at WorstEmailEver.com
And now this:
My friend Christian turned me onto this long ago and I believe he discovered it through our friend Victor. Thank you, Victor, for this gem.
Enjoy and God Bless America!
