BARF. How about THIS ONE (yes it is an actual song)...
Praise to the Man (orig title JOSEPH SMITH).
1. Praise to the man who communed with Jehovah.
Jesus’ anointed, “that Prophet and Seer,”
Blessed to open the last dispensation;
Kings shall extol him, and nations revere.
CHORUS.
Hail to the Prophet, ascended to heaven,
Traitors and tyrants now fight him in vain,
Mingling with God’s he can plan for his brethren,
Death cannot conquer the hero again.
2. Praise to his mem’ry, he died as a martyr;
Honored and blest is his ever great name;
Long shall his blood, which was shed by assassins,
Stain Illinois*, while the earth lauds his fame.
Hail to the Prophet, &c.
3. Great is his glory, and endless his priesthood,
Ever and ever the keys he will hold;
Faithful and true, he will enter his kingdom,
Crowned in the midst of the prophets of old.
Hail to the Prophet, &c.
4. Sacrifice brings forth the blessings of heaven;
Earth must atone for the blood of that man!
Wake up the world for the conflict of justice,
Millions shall know “brother Joseph” again.
Hail to the Prophet, &c.
*this has now been changed to ‘plead unto h’vn’.
I think this is a perfectly fine story about patriotism and our musical and poetie heritege. Why are your panties in a knot?
Blame Romney because you hate his religion, or Romneycare, or his haircut. Don’t take him to task over his fondness for the words of America the Beautiful! That is a such a cheapshot and an unworthy argument. We should all ponder those words more often and sing the secondary verses too).
Yep.
Patriotic - he praises his sons for working for him and not going into the military.
Patriotic - he celibates his “mission” service in France while living high on his dad’s dollar to avoid the draft.
Patriotic - really DADT?, he supports the reversal.
Patriotic - as patriotic as a Ken doll.
Putting out RINO and Leftist propaganda while saying look at this awful RINO and Leftist propaganda doesn't conceal the fact that one has put out RINO and Leftist propaganda.
We may need to call out the FR Inquisition on this one;)
NYT-Obama beating the “Vote For Willard - He’s Inevitable” drum.
Leftist Willard is not patriotic. The interview was a stunt.
I may never buy another ear of corn.... that stuff make you stupid.
Sorry Milt. I’m more of a “and the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air” kinda guy.
It’s called schmoozing,and it’s all he’s got.
Schmoozing:the act of mingleing, socializing, or kissing ass in or at an event that you may feel less than comfortable.The pointless evening pursuit of kissing important butts to better ones employment prospects.
And if my grandmother had wheels, she'd be a wagon, Myth. What a maroon.
No Romney man has ever served this nation in uniform, that is not simply timing and coincidence for 170 years, that is a family with purpose, and with two Presidential candidates in a row now.
This is not a patriotic family
"It's easy to grin / When your ship comes in / And you've got the stock market beat. / But the man worthwhile, / Is the man who can smile, / When his shorts are too tight in the seat." A-ha, a-ha, a-ah
