I understand what he's saying... there is a difference between pride, and blind ignorance. I love this country, but it's not like I can't see shortcomings.

You do realize that is 100% NOT what America is all about, right?

Awesome commercial, and I have owned 2 C6's, but, my tax money going to GM is a hard pill to swallow.
You sir, are a ******* MORON...

Funny how GM and Ford both average around 12% of their spending on UAW employees a year... It's us who's making them go broke! riighhht

Agreed. Our country is a melting pot of all the rejects from the world's others countries.

Bingo.

Unless your native American saying things like that seems pretty ignorant and shortsighted.

But hey not too many "indians" left, immigrants(current "americans") were pretty good at killing most of those off (hey at least we got tons of FREE land from it), so good that Hitler himself (this is all true) adopted and modified those techiniques for concentration camps, i believe he even explained this and it caused quite a ruckus at the time in "good ole merica"

Being a citizen and living in a country gives you every right to question and complain, and what makes American so great is the ability to do this without fear of reprimand, other then being told to "GTFO if you dont like it"

Im saying if your bitching and whining and dont like the country then you obviously think there is somewhere better..... might as go to the country if its just so bad here!!!!

I work with a bunch of mexicans (i am by no means racist by the way) and i listen to them talking about mexico taking over the United States without ever firing a weapon and how even if we did go to war they would fight for Mexico... I always say "If you dont like the country and mexico is so much better then get the **** out and go back to mexico"

If you dont like it here then leave or shut up.........

And we are saying you obviously don't know anything about how this country works... if people don't like something, we bitch and whine and work to CHANGE it. Did you miss the past ~200 years or so?

NO NO NO... i get where your coming from, how else do you get anything changed without doing something about it... and most times thats done by whining/bitching.... i understand that.

But to say you will not support the country that allows you to live the life you live....... thats not right, if you dont support the country then why are you here??????

Besides when we become a one-world-nation you wont have to worry about any of it anyway.



BUT THATS NOT WHAT THIS THREAD IS ABOUT! ITS ABOUT A COMMERCIAL..... ILL STOP THREAD HIJACKING....

Well im not sure how it changed... lol ... maybee just the way it was worded came off wrong, idk... Im not saying i like everything about our country but thats the great thing about the US you dont have to, but to not stand behind it is wrong.

im just venting about some of the guys i work with... i get tired of hearing about how great mexico is compared to the us. and how they would fight for mexico befor they would stand behind the US.... I just dont understand why they are here is the US if mexico is so great??????????? (im not implying every mexican is that way just a FEW i work with not all of them)

This is the first thing you said, after a couple people said they were tired of people thinking America is the best at everything. No mention of your Mexicans till later.
