According to Rush, this is the new American national anthem for the banana-republic/Oinquebama age:
I hurt myself laughing so hard when RUSH announced the New National Anthem...
Day-O
LOL
Great song. I used to listen to it when I was a kid. I’m afraid I’m missing the joke though. Why is this the new national anthem?
El Presidente Obama, joined with Chavez, Ortega, and the Castro Brothers, demanding that Honduras accept their own President Back without reservation.
>>>I’m afraid I’m missing the joke though
We’re turning into a banana republic.
Check. It’s kind of a shame, though, to reduce the song to a joke because of the theme. It’s quite poignant, as presented. I have to count this as a misstep by Rush.
“We’re turning into a banana republic.”
The real joke is a genuine banana republic, Honduras, is now the leader of whatever’s left of the free world! Let’s leave them The Star Spangled Banner as a bequest.
