Oh! say, can you see, by the dawn’s early light,
W hat so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?

And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof thro’ the night that our flag was still there.
Oh! say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave,
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?


On the shore, dimly seen thro’ the mist of the deep,
Where the foe’s haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o’er the towering steep.
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?

Now it catches the gleam of the morning’s first beam,
In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream
‘Tis the star-spangled banner. Oh! long may it wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!


And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion
A home and a country should leave us no more?
Their blood has washed out their foul footstep’s pollution.

No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave,
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.


Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved homes and the war’s desolation,
Blest with vict’ry and peace, may the Heav’n - rescued land
Praise the Pow’r that hath made and preserved us a nation.

Then conquer we must, for our cause is just,
And this be our motto—”In God is our trust.”
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

I wonder how this is being portrayed on Spanish language radio stations in the southwest part of the country.

Let 'em try again. We'll be back if they do.

Keep your eyes down the road. Watch for this bill to be included in a military expediture or something, like the online gambling ban was to the port security bill.

The legislation, which had been endorsed by President Bush, would tighten borders, institute a new system to prevent employers from hiring undocumented workers in addition to giving up to 12 million illegal immigrants a pathway to legal status.

how biased is this writer? which way does he lean? hmmm... it's not obvious at all...

This is not over yet. They can't give up this easily. They will resurect it and call it something else. We have to keep our gurad up. Stage two is to go after the people who hire illegals. Start fining them and arresting them. just catch ten or 100 of them on the nightly news. the magnet will dry up and most of the 12 million will go home by themselves.

"we have won the battle, but the war goes on.."

I'm just thrilled that we won the battle. This is the first time in a year that the lefties got turned back on anything.

“Stunning to who?” The defeatocrats, RINOs, one-worlders, illegal employers, La Raza, criminal gangs, “immigration activists” and that lot, I would guess....

IT'S A LIE. THEY DON'T HAVE THE HONESTY TO ADMIT ITS AMNESTY! END OF RANT. I usually don't shout but like the Cretans, I hate liars. Especially Drive By/MSM ones.
