Marine stuns a tea party with the fourth verse of the star spangled banner

guy just wipped out some star spangled banner on that crowd haha. kinda random but the crowd enjoyed it.

funny though cause after a few lines they were like, oh, oh crap I should stand up. and they all start standing up :).
 
I am an atheist. I hate this God stuff.

Morals are as natural as the soil our bodies rot in when we die. I am of this universe, and that is the only connection I need to a higher power.

let's keep stuff like this in the religious forums, it's only bound to stir up a ton of crap here in general politics.
 
Noticing the caption in the screenshot of the OP video...

When was the last time our cause was just?

I don't think there is justice in war at all. Necessity if fighting off a foreign agressor, but never justice. There is nothing just about naive young soldiers killing other naive young soldiers at the whims and behest of greedy overlords whether they be called kings, emperors, presidents, ceos, or some other holder of power.

I love it when someone qualified to speak does so in the manner above.

Thanks icy. :)
 
You do realize that verse, among other things, justifies Imperialism and the Neocon agenda?

"Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just"

The SSB is not some magical writ handed down by the founding fathers, it's a song, written to glorify the state.

The McCain/Palinites probably eat that up with a spoon, though.

And it's thinking like yours that continues to destroy what our republic was built on.

Oh Please. It is contempt for liberty that has destroyed what "our republic" was built on and NOTHING else. Frankly, I do not see how anyone who advocates a theocracy has any interest in liberty at all. I don't begrudge people their personal beliefs, but I do draw the line at the notion that anyone has any right to enforce their beliefs on others.
