A Recited Truth MAG
May 20, 2008
I pledge allegiance
To the flag
Of the United States of America
And to the controversial culture for which it stands
One nation, under whatever deity you choose,
Indivisible since 1965,
With liberty and justice for all who can afford a decent lawyer.

if you were mocking the downward spiral into which our once great nation is falling... i loved it! but if you were serious... i think i want to go pray to God on your behalf... and cry.

Wow, this is good. It really captured what happens in America. Maybe you weren't trying to make it funny, but I thought it was.

Naa..don't say that..
This nation has helped many peoples...
Although there are some really Fudged up people in power....the Good citizens are what keeps this country together and sane.
Its the citizens who abide by what this country was founded on...the Declaration of Independence.. human rights...
its inspired the world...
And up until the last few decades...it was continuing to do so..
