Major League Baseball must permanently retire ‘God Bless America,’ a song that offends everyone

It’s time for God to stop blessing America during the seventh-inning stretch.

Welcome to the July 4 holiday weekend — when once again, baseball fans will be assaulted by the saccharine-sweet non-anthem “God Bless America” at stadia all over this great land.

But no matter which home team you root, root, root for, “God Bless America” should be sent permanently to the bench.

"The opening notes of “God Bless America” were a cacophony of jingoistic twaddle which immediately permeated every fiber of my being. My world quickly spun out of control and I felt waves of nausea wash over me with such intensity that I feared I was being sucked into a black hole. My ears were assaulted in such a fashion to render me deaf and mute for at least a half an hour after the song had finished. The song’s depravity was palpable. It reminded me of an assault on my sensibilities that I hadn’t experienced since the Lee Greenwood concert that I was forced to attend."

Down in the article he admits to being an atheist. So there you go.

[Vendome]

Too easy

[CaptainAmiigaf]

A blithering idiot who demands we don’t ask GOD to BLESS AMERICA, yet stridently demands his right to receive each and every one of the BLESSINGS that GOD bestows on America.
I apologize for the 3 syllable words and polite language, but what I’d REALLY like to say about is beyond the protection of the 1st Amendment.

Good to see a liberal, Jewish, atheist finally get a voice in the media. Yes that’s sarcasm.

[longfellow]

Yup, I am about to launch a political cartoon site that will probably get me a visit from the SS.

But if they can make jokes and rappers can threaten rape, I am sure the left will be able to handle some cartoons about their side. You know, like muslims handle cartoons about muhamed.

“Kuntzman”

That’s actually someone’s name?

[Flatus I. Maximus]

Oh. Kuntzman again. Isn't he the guy who complained about suffering bruises and PTSD after firing an AR-15?

[Fai Mao]

The song does not offend me but I really don’t like it and wouldn’t mind it not being there

[xp38]

Kate Smith lived in a different America than the one today.

[trisham]

Agreed.

[NorthMountain]

Gersh KUNTzman is a whining fairy. This is the same a-hole that got a bruised shoulder, nausea, and PTSD from shooting an AR15.

[NorthMountain]

Or a gerbil?

You don't wanna know where the gerbil is.

[MIchaelTArchangel]

I wonder if his husband’s name is Hardy Woodsman.

[SuperLuminal]

Is that an LGBT name?

[hadaclueonce]

sounds like a crappy deal for the gerbil.

just saying....

[cyclotic]

As patriotic songs go, it’s my least favorite but because it’s. Patriotic song, I love it.

[Big Mack]

Gersch, you ignorant slut.
