I'll tell you right off what it ain't: Anglo-Saxon. It's not at all like my own family name (Fletcher), white "American" as white American gets y'all, not a trace of any of those swarthy non-English races anywhere, yo. Yet somehow, Tom Tancredo seems to think that it is he and his people who hold the title to this great country. Why would that be? And who the fuck is Tom Tancredo, you ask? Ask Colorado (one of those fly-over states rotten with rugged and self-satisfied "independents" and "individualists," much like my own current home state...except we just call them Republicans, douchebags and teabaggers here).
Anyway, according to Wikipedia, this Tancredo dude (who ran quixotically and douchebagotically for President in 2008), is descended from some Italian grandparents. Well, excuse me, but as I recall, we (meaning the "real" (English) Americans) don't really have much sympathy for that. What? They fuckin immigrated here? Like relatively recently? Like after we had already exterminated the so-called "native" population and made it safe for our white English faces? If there's one thing I should be suspicious of (as a REAL American), it is some draft-dodging foreigner whose name ends in a vowel.
Yeah, anyone reading this is wondering why the fuck I am in a bitter rant about a fifth-tier piece of shit politician who has no chance of ever mattering again in any possible way ever. I guess THIS is why. Blessed be the Tea Party. I hate it now, but it is the gift that will keep on giving, I promise.
Even though I am a "liberal" and a "fucking faggot," I can say to people like Tom Tancredo that I am not one of those goddamned dirty immigrants that he hates (cuz my peeps were here first, jackass). But I feel secure enough in my ethnic identity that I will continue to tolerate these o-ending-named fahreigners living in my white Ahhmuhhhrikka.
