Andy Rooney

I am not sure that these are actually the comments of Andy Rooney but if they are he gets an attaboy from me.

Tom Gator 851.

Hes got some VERY GOOD points here:
Andy's on a roll...

Same as many of you, I like big cars, big boats, big motorcycles, big houses and big campfires.

I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some
governmental stooge with a bad comb-over who wants to give it away to crack addicts for squirting out unplanned babies.

Guns do not make you a killer. I think killing makes you a killer.
You can kill someone with a baseball bat or a car, but no one is trying to
ban you from driving to the ball game, at least so far!

I believe they are called the Boy Scouts for a reason, that is why
there are no girls allowed. Girls belong in the Girl Scouts!

I think that if you feel homosexuality is wrong, it is not a phobia,
it is an opinion.

I don't think being a minority makes you a victim of anything except
numbers.

The only things I can think of that are truly discriminatory are
things like the United Negro College Fund, Jet Magazine, Black Entertainment Television, and Miss Black America. Try to have things like the United Caucasian College Fund, Cloud Magazine, White Entertainment Television, or Miss White America and see what happens. Jesse Jackson will be knocking down your door!

I have the right "NOT" to be tolerant of others because they are
different,weird, or tick me off. When 70% of the people who get arrested are black, in cities where 70% of the population is black, that is not racial profiling, it is the law of statistics.

I know what sex is, and there are not varying degrees of it. If I
received sex from one of my subordinates in my office, it would not be a "private matter" or my "personal business". I would be "FIRED" immediately!

I believe that if you are selling me a milk shake, a pack of
cigarettes, a newspaper or a hotel room, you must do it in English! As a matter of fact, if you want to be an American citizen you should have to speak English.

My father and grandfather shouldn't have to die in vain so you can
leave the countries you were born in to come over and disrespect ours.

I think the police should have every right to shoot your sorry ass if
you threaten them after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand
the word "freeze" or "stop" in English, see the above lines.

I feel much safer letting a machine with no political affiliation
recount votes when needed. I know what the definition of lying is.

I don't think just because you were not born in this country, you are
qualified for any special loan programs, government sponsored ! bank
loans or tax breaks, etc., so you can open a hotel, coffee shop, trinket
store, or any other business. We did not go to the aid of certain foreign
countries and risk our lives in wars to defend their freedoms so that decades later they could come over here and tell us our constitution is a living document and open to their interpretations.

I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor.

I know wrestling is fake, but so are movies and television, and that
doesn't stop you from watching them.

I believe a self-righteous liberal or conservative with a cause is
more dangerous than a Hell's Angel with an attitude.

I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and
continue to make more. If it ticks you off, go and invent the next operating system that's better and put your name on the building. Ask your buddy that invented the Internet to help you.

It doesn't take a whole village to raise a child right, but it does
take a parent to stand up to the kid and smack their little ass' when
necessary and say "NO."

"I think tattoos and piercing are fine if you want them, but please
don't pretend they are a political statement. And Please stay home until
that new lip ring heals, I don't want to look at your ugly infected mouth as
you serve my french fries!

I am sick of "Political Correctness" and of all the suck ups that go
along with it.

I know a lot of black people, and not a single one of them was born in
Africa, so how can they be "African-Americans"? Besides, Africa is acontinent. I don't go around saying I am a European-American because my great, great, great, great,great, great grandfather was from Europe. I am proud to be from America and nowhere else.

And if you don't like my point of view, tough shit!
