God Bless The U.S.A. (midi)
If tomorrow all the things were gone
I'd worked for all my life
And I had to start again
With just my children and my wife
I'd thank my lucky stars
To be living here today
Cause the flag still stands for freedom
And they can't take that away
And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
But I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I gladly stand up
Next to you
And defend her still today
Cause there ain't no doubt
I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.
From the lakes of Minnesota
To the hills of Tennessee
Across the plains of Texas
From sea to shining sea
From Detroit down to Houston
And New York to L.A.
There's pride in every American heart
And it's time we stand and say
And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I gladly stand up
Next to you
And defend her still today
Cause there ain't no doubt
I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.
And I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I gladly stand up
Next to you
And defend her still today
Cause there ain't no doubt
I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.

I am always overwhelmed by the patriotism I see here on this site. 15 years ago, I said to my husband that I saw very little patriotism these days, well that was well before FR came along. Thanks Mr. Robinsons.
As brought up on another thread yesterday to increase membership, why don't we have bumper stickers saying something like this "If you love Freedom and Liberty, go to www.FREEREPUBLIC.COM." I would pass them out to friends and family. Since the SAS March on Mother's Day, I have turned on 6 new people to FR, a few are buying a computer just to get this site. Freedom loving people are everywhere, we just have to show them how to find us.

Well, I have to tell you that I think michigander did an extraordinary job putting together this post. Why not use Lee Greenwood's song? It's a perfectly appropriate piece for this theme.
Another thing, do you have ANY IDEA how long michigander took in placing all the graphics and special fonts in their correct postitions? This was not designed in haste, I can assure you. This was a LABOR OF LOVE.
We need to thank him, not criticize him, on this most unselfish masterpiece. It's a fitting tribute to those who have given their lives to secure the freedom of this great nation.
What have you done for the USA or any vet today?

Thank you, so much for such an AWESOME display. Would that Greenwood's lyrics were still true for us today--but, unfortunately, we know better. We are no longer free, and though my sons would gladly stand up and defend this nation from the likes of the Clintonistas, we will not defend this nation's present policy of policing the entire world to "make it safe for democracy." We are NOT a democracy--we are a republic. Our modern terroristic warfare is making the world safe for the New World Order Dictators and NO ONE ELSE! God save America--Save our sons and daughters, and bring them HOME to defend US from the foreign armies that have taken over our American military camps!
