Anyone watch Steve Tyler of Aerosmith fame, destroy the National Anthem at Sunday night's game? www.bing.com/videos/se...FORM=VIRE1 He now stands neck and neck with the likes of Roseanne Barr in disgracing the Anthem and themselves.

Suz, you're right!
BB, the plane was too late...
but who am I to judge? Our previous Prime-Minister was asked to sing our national anthem and he sang the Marseillaise...
maybe that's why they gave away our banks and companies to France?

I couldn't agree more. Call me a punk, but when sung as it should be with respect for what it represents and reverence for those who died to preserve it, it brings a tear to my eyes as well.

Many have tried and many have failed, but whoever sings our National Anthem who does so with no knowledge of our history and what our country truly stands for cannot do it justice and the worst singer who sings it with love and passion for our country in their hearts sings it truly and best.
I also like God Bless America, and some say it ain't over till the fat lady sings, I say the fat lady is the only one who should sing God Bless America. Please have a listen.

Irving Berlin wrote the song and gave all moneys earned from it by either Berlin or Miss Smith going to the Boy and Girl Scouts of America. That arrangement exists to this day. These organizations were chosen, to quote the contract, because "the completely nonsectarian work of the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts is calculated to best promote unity of mind and patriotism, two sentiments that are inherent in the song itself."
America and many other free countries are going through some dark times it seems that those who wish to rule us with tyranny and hate are gaining ground and all our politicians can do is waste money and tell us how they can change things for the better, like any politician has ever changed anything for the better except for himself and other politicians.
Keep strong, keep the faith, God bless you all.
