Am I in pro-America or anti-America?
I live in Salt Lake City, which is in very conservative Utah. However, Salt Lake is home to Rocky Anderson, the man often painted as un-American.

He was our mayor for eight years.

We haven't had a Republican lead our city in 30 years.

Does this mean I'm a half-American?

2. Or just anti-pro-American, as opposed to pro-anti-America or, even worse, Muslim.

6. Use the Jon Stewart formula
Edited on Tue Oct-21-08 05:03 PM by EastTennesseeDem
(Town's population x Average price of a local cup of coffee + Art house movie theaters x No. of streets named after MLK Jr.) / (No. of pieces of identification needed to buy a Sudafed x No. of people who wear trucker hats in your town - No. of truckers x <1 / No. of houses of worship - Synagogues - No. of bars>)

If the answer is less than ten, then you're a real American.

10. All of that is irrelevant. Do you have an American flag magnet?
I'm guessing that and a "these colors don't run" t-shirt makes you a shoo-in for patriot of the week.

11. Well, you're probably better equipped to pass as pro-American than many of us.
If you can prevent yourself from talking politics with those around you, that is.

12. To Help You Out, I've created this simple color coded map for you


If you live in one of the "blue" areas you are an "Anti-American"

If you live in one of the "red" areas you are a "real American"

Funny thing though there seem to be more and more "Anti-Americans" every time this map gets updated...

:rofl:
