-- Posted by xdark bluex at 8:06 pm on July 4, 2009 I seriously think that it should be changed to America The Beautiful. It has all the things that makes America the country that it is. The other was written about a flag on some fort, by a guy held prisoner on a ship. It wasn't even about the Revolutionary War, it was from the war of 1812, which we almost lost. Geesh. But its cool, because people can sing the much better song on any language that they want. Which you cant do with the national anthem. I think that law was passed, its depressing if it was. -- Posted by White Fate at 8:09 pm on July 4, 2009 As I already said this, doubtful. Been like this since 1931 and before. -- Posted by crashdummi7 at 8:11 pm on July 4, 2009 isnt the national anthem based off of an old british drinking song?? -- Posted by DaisyMontana at 8:16 pm on July 4, 2009 You already said it, the answer is No -- Posted by Forever Angel at 8:19 pm on July 4, 2009 Quote: from xdark bluex at 10:06 pm on July 4, 2009 I seriously think that it should be changed to America The Beautiful.

If you don't understand the circumstances of or the meaning behind the National Anthem, why should you have any credibility on the subject of changing it? -- Posted by dm13 at 8:20 pm on July 4, 2009 Fuck too much government spending, the war on drugs, gang violence, and the terrorist threat.  The issue addressed in this topic is the REAL issue in America. -- Posted by Elm at 8:26 pm on July 4, 2009 Quote: from crashdummi7 at 8:11 pm on July 4, 2009 isnt the national anthem based off of an old british drinking song??
