Their Fox Nation website decided to display their patriotism by posting an editorial by impeachment advocate, and Fox senior legal analyst, Andrew Napolitano, that declared that America has <em>&#8220;Gone From An Inherited Tyrant To An Elected One.&#8221;<\/em> Hooray for the USA!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Over on the Fox News website they featured an article by Dan Gainor, the VP of the ultra-rightist propaganda factory, the Media Research Center. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/2014\/07\/04\/this-july-fouth-be-especially-proud-to-be-american\/?intcmp=obnetwork\" target=\"_blank\">Gainor&#8217;s column<\/a> was headlined <em>&#8220;July Fourth: Be especially proud to be an American in 2014.&#8221;<\/em> It was long discourse that covered many subjects, but left out just one: Any reason to be especially proud. Gainor just ranted about the evils of liberals and President Obama. For example, note these excerpts:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>[Liberals are]<\/em> largely in charge of educating our children, running our government and manipulating the media we consume.<\/li>\n<li>Government is both pro-left and pro-union.<\/li>\n<li>No wonder America is in trouble. The Us in USA have a $17.5 trillion national debt, an unchecked parade of illegal immigration and off-the-charts moral decay (including epic out-of-wedlock births).<\/li>\n<li>Look who they learn love of country from \u2013 the president.<\/li>\n<li>Patriotism and love of country are under attack, just like faith.<\/li>\n<li>The flag and those who care for it are under attack across the nation.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t let liberals talk down the Founders unopposed. Don\u2019t let local tyrants force you to take down the American flag.<\/li>\n<li>The next time someone asks you if you are proud to be an American, you can answer: \u201cDamn right I am.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Yippie-Ki-Yay, America.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Richard Mellon Scaife died. Scaife was the media baron who spent a lifetime attacking Democrats, and particularly the Clinton family who he accused of everything from drug-running to murder. He was an early and aggressive advocate of Clinton&#8217;s impeachment. He was 82.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Disgusting, hate-filled, Tea Party, racist, protesters <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=18533\" target=\"_blank\">continue to camp out<\/a> at the site of a Murrieta, California, facility where immigration officials are hoping to temporarily house women and children while being processed. These pseudo-patriots are actually impeding the authorities from completing deportation proceedings, and at the same time they are subjecting the children to terrifying experiences and forcing them into unsafe, overcrowded facilities. What a wonderful way to spend the Fourth of July and honor these words:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,<br \/>\nWith conquering limbs astride from land to land;<br \/>\nHere at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand<br \/>\nA mighty woman with a torch, whose flame<br \/>\nIs the imprisoned lightning, and her name<br \/>\nMother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand<br \/>\nGlows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command<br \/>\nThe air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.<br \/>\n&#8220;Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!&#8221; cries she<br \/>\nWith silent lips. &#8220;Give me your tired, your poor,<br \/>\nYour huddled masses yearning to breathe free,<br \/>\nThe wretched refuse of your teeming shore.<br \/>\nSend these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,<br \/>\nI lift my lamp beside the golden door!&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Finally, let&#8217;s all wish this beautiful young woman the very happiest Sweet Sixteen ever.
