Lana: I'm leaving. Ray, airport, let's go.

Archer: Have you lost your mind?

Ray: Seriously, I am not your servant. [Archer slapping Ray's face] Ow, quit-quit Ow, ow, goddamn it!

Archer: Not that. Lana, in case you haven't noticed, this place is crawling with rebels.

Pam: And not the good kind you get drunk with at Myrtle Beach and cruise the strip in the bed of their monster truck with a big rebel flag on it, flinging empty longnecks at people.

Lana: Yeeeah, those aren't actually the good kind, either.

Pam: Now who's racist?

Archer: Those guys, Pam, those exact same guys you just described.

Pam: Oh. Well now I feel like an asshole.

1985 - Jello Biafra, spoke word introduction to California Über Alles

Jello Biafra, spoke word introduction to California Über Alles,
Blue Horizon Ballroom, Philadelphia, PA
11/17/1985

Rambozo the Clown!
America's back!
America's back!

"Hey, I love our flag. I'll fight to the death to save her. I'll beat up people who disagree with me, in the redneck American way."

Patriotic rednecks...Patriotic rednecks, they bring our country down. Down!

If you really care about our country... you care about people. Not guns, not power, people.

All people.
Rich people
Poor people
Religious and atheist
Black and white... and green
and AIDS victims.

We're all people.

But not if the "christians" have their way. Then we're not people, we're fucking cockroaches.

Are you a person or are you a cockroach?!?

I don't know about you, but I am a human being goddamnit.

This is the only country I got. I'm not into nationalism, but I'd like to hang on to what freedom we have so it doesn't become a born-again christian version of Iran.
