They're as dumb as their misleader.

My country, ’tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing;
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrims’ pride,
From every mountainside,
Let freedom ring!

My native country, thee,
Land of the noble free,
Thy name I love;
I love thy rocks and rills,
Thy woods and templed hills;
My heart with rapture thrills,
Like that above.

Let music swell the breeze,
And ring from all the trees,
Sweet freedom’s song;
Let mortal tongues awake;
Let all that breathe partake;
Let rocks their silence break,
The sound prolong.

Our fathers’ God, to Thee,
Author of liberty,
To Thee we sing;
Long may our land be bright
With freedom’s holy light;
Protect us by Thy might,
Great God, our King.

1. I think I figured out why Bush wrote that....

...on that note that Condi gave him, telling him that "Iraq is sovereign." I think he recognized the word "reign" within the word "sovereign" and just winged it. Pretty clever for a chimp.

3. Your kind should secede-we'll take the intelligent Texans

you can live in your little fascist state and wallow in ignorance.

4. The link you provide has it dead wrong....

As do most conservatives.

The music to "My Country 'Tis Of Thee" is not a German hymn. It's "God Save The King/Queen!"

God save our gracious Queen,
Long live our noble Queen,
God save the Queen!
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us;
God save the Queen!

Some people don't want to accept that the song most Americans learn in Kindergarten is really new words to the British National Anthem!
