America Is... (By Me)
A country founded on pure principals
that are not always true
but mostly are
A country containing many different
but alike
A country of greed
and charity
A country of technology
A country of tools
A country of fools
A country of millions
with debt in the billions
A Bully
A Friend
A country with a hand to Lend
And a country that needs to Mend
A country that is broken?
A country that needs to be woken?
Loved
Hated
Revered
Despised
Home of the Brave
Land of the Free
America is up to you,
Not up to me;
It all depends on what you see.

Get the America mug.A tour where one goes to visit Boston, New York and Cleveland.
Must not be confused with "European Tour", where one typically would go see stuff that is more than 100 years old.

Oh man, my American Tour was so awesome! I went to see all these homogeneous places, that all look the same!
Though my favourite was Cleveland - the most cultured place on the planet.

Get the american tour mug.True grit. True devotion. True love. These tributes are used often to describe the American Bulldog -- a hardy, athletic, all-purpose working dog. The American Bulldog is a loving family companion, good with children and other pets, yet at the same time, fearlessly determined. It has been known to display heroic acts of courage in protecting its master. The American Bulldog has also been used to hunt everything from squirrel to bear, and has been trained to drive cattle and guard stock from predators. The American Bulldog should be evaluated as a working dog, and exaggerations or faults should be penalized in proportion to how much they interfere with the dogs ability to work.
Bulldogs in England were originally working dogs who drove and caught cattle and guarded their masters' property. At one time, the breed was used in the grueling sport of bull baiting. With the outlawing of the sport in England in 1835, the original type of Bulldog disappeared from Britain and was replaced with the less athletic dog we now know as the English Bulldog. Yet the original Bulldog was preserved by immigrants who brought their working dogs with them to the American South. By the end of World War II, the last remnants of the working English Bulldog were disappearing in the U.S. Thanks to the breeding programs of John D. Johnson and Allen Scott, the breed was brought back from the brink of extinction.

The essential characteristics of the American Bulldog are those which enable it to work as a hog and cattle catching dog, and a protector of personal property. These tasks require a powerful, agile, confident dog with a large head and powerful jaws. The American Bulldog is a gentle, loving family companion who is fearless enough to face an angry bull or a human intruder; Good with children; Good with pets.

Get the American Bulldog mug.Derived from the phrase "As American as hot dogs and apple pie". Both hotdogs and Hip Hop were originated in America, Hip Hop started in the South Bronx.
Once there was a street artist who got busted by a cop. The intricate graffiti was displaying George W. Bush as a mass murderer, with a chainsaw, attacking cripples and little nerd children. And then the cop went ape shit. Or... pig shit.
Cop: This is filthy! Like a wall of... turds! Filthy! You're bashing The Dubbya.
Graf Writer: Its symbolic. It shows Bush killing all the innocents... with this war that cousin-fucking hillbilly started.
Cop: You little... spraypaintin'... turd! You are Un-American!! Bashin' the Dubbya!
Graf Writer: I'm as American as hot dogs and Hip Hop.
Cop: This is filthy! Like a wall of... turds! Filthy! You're bashing The Dubbya.

Get the As American as Hot Dogs and Hip Hop mug.A strong robust dog much taller then the english or french bulldog. Bred in america by Dr. Johnson and Dr. Scott. These two men had different views of the perfect american bulldog so the created two kinds. The Johnson which has a huge chest and is usaully a bit heavier, and the scott bulldog which is has more lean muscle rather then big bulky muscle. Both American bulldogs are great working dogs and are used to hunt wild hogs.

"Shield Down, Captain America!" said Louis to Joe for ranting about how "everyone" was against his ideas "all the time."
When Toby winced and ducked at the cold beer Lyle tossed him, Ralph roared, "Shield Down, Captain America!"
