A song for y'all...

Neither conservative nor liberal. It just is what it is.

America

O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain.
For shopping center parking lots,
For freeways, trucks, and cranes.
America! America! All natives step aside.
Men with plans, and calloused hands,
Have come to turn the tide.

O beautiful for nail salons.
For gas stations, signs, and roads.
A thoroughfare of steel and glass,
And asphalt rolled in loads.
America! America! Home of brave and free,
Relieved of pain, and entertained
By the crap on their TVs.

O beautiful for movie stars,
And guitar strumming bards.
For record labels and magazines,
And radio talk show tards.
America! America! God help the man who strays
From the norm, despite the swarm,
Finding his own way.

O beautiful for laying blame.
Nothing is our fault.
Fault lies with the other guys,
We had no chance to halt.
America! America! Lock and toss the key.
If you had a role, you want to extoll,
That’s fine, just don’t blame me.

O beautiful for praying to
The glorious bottom line.
Success is cash, and cash is king,
And kings are all divine.
America! America! If you think you’ve won,
Count the bills, and add the change,
And judge the final sum.

O beautiful, the irony
Of fearing storm-tossed masses.
How easily we forget
Our fathers had no passes.
America! America! Let’s keep our country free
From the droves of immigrants
Invading our country.

Oh beautiful, our fighting might.,
They guard against oppression.
How often do we kill and maim
Without justification?
America! America! We have a deadly lust.
Dropping bombs, on dads and moms.
You better watch for us.

O beautiful, the Fourth Estate.
They feed us all our news.
News, that is, as they deem worth
Their cameras, men, and crews.
America! America! Beware of what you see.
Trash and lies sell drums of ink,
And make for great TV,

O beautiful, our right to speak,
To satire and lampoon.
There’s more I could say for sure,
But I’ll stop singing soon.
America! America! I tip my hat to thee.
Truth is that there’s no other place
Where I would rather be.

I loved a lot of your song.
Except the part where you think we kill without justification.

That's incorrect.

Has there been collateral damage thru the years? Yes.

But no intellectual human being would say we kill without just cause.

Vietnam? In case you don't understand, the commies we were at war with were the most sadistic psychopaths on earth.
After we pulled out of there,
Those sociopaths murdered raped and tortured another 5 million or so

Any muslim foes? Every single war was against muslims who rape murder and tortured women and children even

Find me a foe who was squeaky clean.
I'll wait.........

Sorry EAP. I've got to run. I only make brief appearances on the board for old time's sake. Maybe someone else here would like to argue with you about how just our wars have been. Would make an interesting topic.

Take care

Being on a left winger's ignore list is a badge of honor.

It proves that you snowflakes are short on both knowledge and testosterone.

This song is an example of whitebread gloating wrapped in sarcasm. Perfect political party 'appropriate chuckle' material.

It's also tailor made for immigrants who have been through worse, and don't see what the big fusses are, to be honest.

EAP loved it.

It is, what it is.

TL;DR

Appreciate the effort though.

Fair enough, Mikey. But I'm surprised that you're going to let this pass...
