Well let me make this fuckin' clear......I don't give two shits about the SSB as it really speaks very little to what this country could be and yet sadly still speaks volumes about what it is after all these years. Why worry about any references to gods and let's hear about all the anthems that refer instead to war! I know of only one.

I'd much prefer Woody's TLIYL or even better the Emma Lazarus poem on the Statue of Liberty set to music, both of which proclaim what the best of this country could be.

I don't sing it and I don't salute or face the flag.......But I do have a love/hate relationship with my country and that alone makes me a patriot.
