10. Welcome to DU!

:hi:

[Reader Rabbit]

4. Oh! You made me cry!

And ironically, those words were originally spoken by a Republican!

[BattyDem]

6. "spoken by a Republican"

That's right! I never even gave that a thought. Today's GOP has been smacked upside the head by the words of one of their own. Sweet! :evilgrin:

[originalpckelly]

12. A bit more liberal than our "friends" the Republicans...

of today. Can you imagine Republicans talking about freeing slaves? Hell they won't even let gay people get married, and that isn't as big of an economic issue.

5. Tweak the ending iffin you like, but ya all know the tune, Sing it out, DU

America!

1. 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!

2. 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.

3. 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.

4. 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.

[Mme. Defarge]

7. We hold this truth

to be self-evident.

GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!

[Tommymac]

8. WE THE PEOPLE have spoken.

9. Is it really over?
