Re: FOX Lies!! Barack Obama Pastor Wright

The Star Spangled Banner is as dumb as Oh I Want to See Him. A more appropriate theme would be God Bless America or America the Beautiful.

I'm not that hip on saluting flag. I do out of respect for others. I have a problem saying the pledge of allegience to an american flag made in a thrid world country.

If you think its a dumb song, then maybe this isnt the country for you!!!!

Re: FOX Lies!! Barack Obama Pastor Wright

*sigh*

You know, it's the little things and small traditions that help make us who we are as a country. Everything from the "dumb" national anthem to the picture of Lincoln on the penny to American flags waving in neighborhood yards to the thousands of fans who take their hats off at baseball games when the "dumb" song is sang.

I think these things are worth hanging on to. It doesn't have anything at all to do with whether or not you like the lyrics or whether or not the melody inspires you.

And you shouldn't be saluting the flag based on where it's sewn; it's a matter of what it represents.

Sister, I don't have anything against that being our national anthem. I just thing it's dumb to sing and hold our hands over our heart while reciting the poa. I don't care if others do it. I just don't want to.

There you go, MissBrattified...making sense again.
You know that's not appropriate for this thread.
Intelligent posts are not wanted, needed, or appreciated on this thread, ok?
Thank you!

I know a lot of kids who think its dumb to say "please" when they ask for the potatoes at the dinner table. But etiquette and manners and traditions are important--to me, anyway. (And our children will be taught the same things we hold dear.)
