Free Republic

There was a change to the following verse as the author didn’t realize the implication of “closet door”.

Someone opened up a closet door and out stepped Sarah P.
Preachin’ the truth and a-ringin’ the bell of Lady Liberty
If libs like the “Obamanation”, they’ll need much more than luck
But as for me, give me Liberty, not a Government Motors truck.

Closet door is now changed to “Freedom’s door”.

Someone opened up Freedom’s door and out stepped Sarah P.
Preachin’ the truth and a-ringin’ the bell of Lady Liberty
If libs like the “Obamanation”, they’ll need much more than luck
But as for me, give me Liberty, not a Government Motors truck.

Here is something written by a person called Hben; he has given permission to post his lyrics over the internet. The song is Rick Nelson’s Garden Party. I’d like Rush to use it on his show. It’s pretty good.

Tea Party
Lyrics by Hben

I went to a tea party to reminisce with my old friends
A chance to share old memories of liberty again
When I got to America’s party, we all still knew “her” name
But no one recognized “her”, she didn’t look the same

CHORUS
But it’s all right now, we learned our lesson well
You see, ya can’t please the liberals, so keep ringing the Liberty Bell

People came from miles around, everyone was there
I thought I saw an elephant, there was magic in the air
And over in the corner, much to my surprise
Republicans with Reagan Democrats opening up their eyes

CHORUS
But it’s all right now, we learned our lesson well
You see, ya can’t please the liberals, so keep ringing the Liberty Bell

lott-in-dah-dah-dah, lot-in-dah-dah-dah

Played them all the old songs, by Jefferson & all his friends
They all cheered the message, “Hope & Change are about to end”
We said hello to the Constitution, she belongs to me
When we sang the songs of Liberty, it was time to leave

CHORUS
But it’s all right now, we learned our lesson well
You see, ya can’t please the liberals, so keep ringing the Liberty Bell

lot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah)
lot-in-dah-dah-dah

Someone opened up a closet door and out stepped Sarah P.
Preachin’ the truth and a-ringin’ the bell of Lady Liberty
If libs like the “Obamanation”, they’ll need much more than luck
But as for me, give me Liberty, not a Government Motors truck.

CHORUS
But it’s all right now, we learned our lesson well
You see, ya can’t please the liberals, so keep ringing the Liberty Bell

lot-dah-dah-dah (lot-dah-dah-dah)
lot-in-dah-dah-dah

CHORUS
And it’s all right now, we learned our lesson well
You see, ya can’t please the liberals, so keep ringing the Liberty Bell

Ah yes... interesting comments in a Wiki article about William Kennedy Smith. Notice that Patrick was there with William and his father, Teddy.

"The incident began on the evening of Good Friday, March 29, 1991, when Smith, then 30 years old, was in a bar (named Au Bar) in Palm Beach, Florida, with his uncle, Senator Ted Kennedy, and his cousin Patrick Kennedy. Smith met a 29-year-old woman and another young woman at the bar. The four then went to a nearby house owned by the Kennedy family. Smith and the 29 year old woman walked along the beach. She alleged that Smith raped her; Smith testified that the sex was consensual. Although three women were willing to testify that Smith had sexually assaulted them in incidents in the 1980s not reported to the police, their testimony was excluded.[2] Smith was acquitted of all charges."

Was Patrick the Kennedy that Edward had to rush off to Florida a few years back to get him out from under a sexual abuse and rape charge?

Does that moron realize his father was sworn in the day after his special election? The hypocrisy of the Kennedy's is amazing.

“He’s a disgusting, spiteful man who will not bother to tune him in out of curiousity anymore.”

I wish we could edit our posts. I meant to type:

He’s a disgusting, spiteful man whose program I will not bother to tune in out of curiosity anymore.

MSNBC is run by a bunch of retards if they think that spewing hate 24/7 is a successful model to follow. FoxNews is successful because it does what it says it’s going to do: that is present the news in a fair and balanced way. I have to say that I have never watched Keith Olbermann’s TV program until I heard about him from upset conservatives. I tuned in his program and couldn’t believe what I was hearing from his mouth. As far as he is concerned, Conservative opinion should be forbidden in this country.

He’s a disgusting, spiteful man who will not bother to tune him in out of curiousity anymore.

Hello. Because I’m new here, there are a number of things I see in the forums that I don’t understand. What is a PING? And what does it mean in FR? Also, rather than bore most of you folks with n00b questions, is there a FAQ that explains how things work here and where do I find it, because I’ve been looking. Things I’d like to know is: who is in charge, what are the rules (Terms of Service); how do you put images in your posts and change the fonts of your messages; I, of course, still need to know what PING means here.
Oh...I’m a BIG Glenn Beck fan btw - even though his reporting scares the beejezus out of me.

Thanks,

Dave

“I don’t get it...what’s the visual aid?”

Sounds like cue cards. Our Country is headed by Conan O’Brian.

“I think the geneologists are desperately trying to find a bloodline to Mary Magdalen.”

LOL Do they give out “Post of the Year” awards here at Free Republic? This should win it!

Yeah. Seat Scott Brown NOW! The Democraps are holding up his confirmation for no reason; they simply want to be petty. Also, Kirk should not be voting.

If the people of Maine want Universal Health Care so bad that they continue to send Collins to Washington, DC, why don’t they simply implement UHC in Maine like Massachusetts did? Leave the rest of us alone.

I had to turn it off...I couldn’t watch and listen anymore. I have never in all the years I’ve watch SOTU speeches heard so much hatred for his opposition than I have heard from the mouth of a president. No only has he openly bad-mouthed the Republican side, he went after the Supreme Court. Has a President ever in the history of this Country, publically condemned a decision of the Supreme Court in a SOTU speech? I hope the Republicans gain control of the Congress and impeach Obama’s ass. It will be great to see Justice Roberts presiding over Obama’s impeachment trial in the Senate.

What an idiot...he’s even pushing health care again. I wish the Republicans would have stood up and chanted “41” “41” “41” “41”!

Regardless of the outcome of this story, ACORN is still a front organization for under-age prostitution and bringing illegals into this country.

More proof that Obama is an empty suit. No one briefed him on what to think about the “middle class” so he has to read it. That guy second from the left is looking out with a WTF look on his face.

“I called my RAT congressman with the same message.

I would rather the RATS control the House next year by 220-215 and the Senate 51-49 or thereabouts. Give the RATS nominal control of both chambers and zero operational control. Don’t want BO to be able to run against the GOP Congress in 2012 - like Clinton successfully did.”

I think ruling over us as a moderate goes against Obama’s very fiber. Look for this non-Democrat and his fellow socialists to push their agenda even harder — a la Obama’s campaign manager David Plouffe coming back on board for the final blow to freedom in America.

On the evening of Scott Brown’s Massachusetts victory, I sent a message to my Congressman, Bruce Braley (D-IA-1) and said “You’re next!”

I hope you all do the same too. :)

Nothing wrong with fixing a few things that will make our health care system more affordable as long as the government doesn’t try to control it or take it over like the Democrats want.

The world owes George W Bush an apology over Katrina. Also, that $57 million dollars raised by Hollywood will never be seen by the people who need it.

Chuck U Schumer reportedly said, along with Barney Fwrank, that they will invoke a new ruling for Corporations to not allow them to exercise free speech since the Congress has the power to set rules for Corporations.

I don’t recall hearing them say anything about controlling the free speech of Unions, however.
