“Any discussion I have with anyone on the history of The Star Spangled Banner, especially on this conservative forum, will not include those that choose to get their talking points from Snopes.com”

I realize you’re not the sharpest knife in the drawer, so I’ll say this as simply as I can. I posted a headline, subheadline, and a link from one snopes article. As a liberal might do, you have repeatedly insisted there was something wrong with the article I linked to without ever once being able to provide a single example of something in that article being any less than absolutely correct.

“I leave you to your history.”

Right. Because compared to you history is all mine because I do not simply dismiss information out of hand.

“Good day.”

You too. Here again is the information you run from repeatedly like chicken little:

“’The Star-Spangled Banner’ and Slavery
Is the legacy of black slavery enshrined in a lesser-known stanza of the U.S. national anthem, “The Star-Spangled Banner”? Some historians say yes.”

http://www.snopes.com/2016/08/29/star-spangled-banner-and-slavery/

There very well could be errors in the article, but we both know you’re not going to be helping anyone finding them. And you probably don’t have the skill to do it anyway.

I apologize that my racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic, deplorable opinion of your web site choice has upset you.

I am without a doubt the most ignorant dull knife that has ever logged on to FreeRepublic.com and cant for the life of me understand why they still let me come here and interrupt smart people like you on a daily basis.

Your superior empathic abilities, being so much smarter than me, and skill at refuting my hyperbole has caused me to wonder why you even bother to engage me. I am now consumed with wonder at how I ever even found the ‘post’ button.
