THE FLAG GOES BY
~Henry Holcomb Bennett~

Hats off!
Along the street there comes
A blare of bugles, a ruffle of drums,
A flash of color beneath the sky:
Hats off!
The flag is passing by!

Blue and crimson and white it shines,
Over the steel-tipped, ordered lines.
Hats off!
The colors before us fly;
But more than the flag is passing by:

Sea-fights and land-fights, grim and great,
Fought to make and to save the State;
Weary marches and sinking ships;
Cheers of victory on dying lips;
Days of plenty and years of peace;
March of a strong land’s swift increase;
Equal justice, right and law,
Stately honor and reverend awe;

Sign of a nation great and strong
To ward her people from foreign wrong;
Pride and glory and honor-all
Live in the colors to stand or fall.

Hats off!
Along the street there comes
A blare of bugles, a ruffle of drums;
And loyal hearts are beating high:
Hats off!
The flag is passing by!

GOD BLESS AMERICA

Good Morning, (((DH)))!

Good morning all!

I have a rant this morning!
I am so tired of hearing Dick Gephardt go unchallenged on his remarks saying that George Bush is a failure! The question that needs to be asked by the news outlets, is who is the successful Commander in Chief, and who is the failed Former House Minority Leader, who lost a number of seats in the Congress to the Republican's before he recently had to turn his failed position over to Nancy Pelosi?

Failure

Morning,Aquamarine.It's going to get worse.I find joy in threads that mock the Pathetic Party!

Good morning, Billie Blubonnet...)

Good morning to all our Hostesses and all the Finest.

I wake up today, the sky is gold and rose from the terrible fires all around me, but I'm far enough away to be touched only by falling ash and the hellish images on TV.

Also, I'm touched by news of the war. It rouses anger at the enemy, and the cowardly Democrats who would choose French way, were they in charge.

May the Lord be blessing our Commander In Chief, our troops and their families...always.

I really like that pledge graphic Billie.

Goodmorning to the Finest!

Good Morning..I've been up through the night listening to the news.Received a Freepmail from a freeper in Coalition Authority that I'd pinged to a John Huang column.He was hearing explosions as he wrote from the headquarters in Baghdad.I just didn't go to bed.

I witnessed a terrible fire in Goleta when I lived there,though they called it the Santa Barbara fire.It is terrible to imagine how widespread these fires are.God bless the firefighters,those who have lost homes and those who have lost loved ones.

>>>Captions, anybody ?? ...

Yeah, but unfortunately the moderators would remove my post.

[Calpernia]

Is it me? Or does he have a mannequin look? Did he have some real bad plastic surgery?

Hi jwfiv. Was thinking about you as I watched the news about the fires in California. What a horror, my prayers are with all those affected by this.

Happy to hear that you are safe.
