Too Cool to be a True American?

The newsline reads: "Suddenly, it may be cool to be an American." Why? Because the "rest of the world" likes the new choice for American president. He is more like them. Sorry world, but I don't want to be your kind of cool.

I don't want to be cool if it means that the values of the founders of my country are downplayed as old-fashioned, bigoted or evil. I don't want to be cool if it means that religion and God are despised, but nature worship (worshipping the created instead of the Creator) is undisputed.

I don't want to be cool if it means that my hard-earned income goes to every "cause celebre" but not to me, my children, or our future at our own discretion. I don't want to be cool if my liberty is erased for some vague and limiting universal equality.

I don't want to be cool if it means YOU are raising my children while I helplessly stand by. I don't want to be cool if it means that evil individuals find us (truthfully) weak fools and exploit us as such.

I don't want to be cool if it means that having a differing voice makes me evil and bigoted. I don't want to be cool if it means that tolerance is agreeing only with your side.

I don't want to be cool if it means I cannot own anything, including myself. I don't want to be cool if it means that believing in God and the right to bear arms makes me a frustrated ignorant yokel.

Sorry, world, I just don't like your brand of cool.
