I think a catchy tune of "Fu(k Off And Die" might be better.  :bird:

8. I love the second one. It might not be secular enough,

Though.

I also like This Land is Your Land and America the Beautiful.

There must be a Satanic one you would like.

OK, I'll play along.

What would be the DUmmies' ideal new national anthem?

51. On the list as possible, but badly flawed due to religious content.

34. I'd have to ask that we absolutely avoid 'The Liberty Bell'...
 




Back when I was in the Air Force some high-ranking officer requested a full-on retirement ceremony when he completed his 30 years, with marching formations and all the pomp and crap.

He also had music.

Imagine, if you will, a parade ground with full formations of Airmen, in dress blues, standing at attention while the opening notes of 'The Liberty Bell' wafted over the parade ground.

A good portion of the troops in the formations were in their 20's.

The year was 1975.

As the music started, we all immediately recognized it as the theme from 'Monty Python's Flying Circus'.

Cut to a few hundred (mostly younger) people, in dress uniforms, standing at attention, mostly with shoulders shuddering and making choking sounds as we all tried to keep from bursting out laughing, while the (older) officers on the reviewing stand had no freaking idea whatsoever what we were all finding so funny.

A British comedy show from 40 years ago has made it impossible for this piece of music to ever be heard, without expecting a big giant paper cutout foot to be coming down at any moment, with a fart sound.

Who the hell says we need a new national anthem? Some idiot football player and the vermin at DU?
 'The Star- Spangled Banner' remains as relevant now as it was in Francis Scott Key's day, and its first verse's ending "Oh say, does that Star Spangled Banner yet wave, o'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?", remains a crucial question for us all to keep in mind.
I'm guessing one of the DUmmies probably proposed replacing it with John Lennon's 'Imagine,' a tribute to Communism, hypocrisy, and idiocy.

IMO, this is the verse of "The Defense of Fort McHenry" that give Libs' & Progs' heebies the jeebies:

Quote
O! thus be it ever when freemen shall stand
Between their lov'd home, and the war's desolation,
Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land
Praise the power that hath made and preserv'd us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto — "In God is our trust!"
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave.

GMTA.  Though just in English would do, aside from a handful of Spanish or French speaking DUmmies, I doubt if they can fluently speak enough of any foreign language to stutter and hum their way through anything else.  Even if they are the most smarterest and bestest educated people in the world who know what's best for everyone else.
