Here's an excellent takedown on the whole "real America" thing. It really makes me wonder just how many times the legions of wingnuttia will have to lose before that meme gets unstuck from the yammering class of mainstream media. If you're a glutton for punishment you can find a clip of that Morning Joe segment on YouTube or wherever. What amazes me is that they seem honestly surprised that anyone would be upset that they just made up a partisian political litmus test for who counts as a "real American." Do these people actually have the attention span of a gnat? Can they really not remember back as far as last fall? (I know, I know... stupid question... if anyone could remember back as far as last fall, they could just recycle all their comments on McCain's campaign suspension for Palin's resignation instead of taking the time to write something "new").
Anyway, I'm down with the comment I saw online somewhere -- proud to be a fake American.
