Once there was a nation, proud and unified
It's heart and spirit real, built with values more than steel
But slowly spoiled with riches, and caring less in time
The simple ways and strong beliefs were often cast aside

For many years, this mighty nation did just as it pleased
And then one day, "9-11", knocked it to it's knees

We need to be the RE-United States
The home and precious land that heroes still defend
Here are the choices, build it back, or let it fall
It's time to answer Freedom's wake-up call

So tell me what's the problem to say a prayer in schools?
No matter what the faith, a silent moment we should take
There are many who would disagree, but doesn't it seem odd
Our problems seemed to start Without "One Nation Under God"

Must there be a tragedy for flags to fly again?
Our Forces serve us everyday, even when the conflicts end.

We need to be the RE-United States
The home and precious land that heroes still defend
Here are the choices, build it back, or let it fall
It's time we answered Freedom's wake-up call.

The security video tapes at Columbine H.S. show students crouched under their desks, praying. <br />

I challenge ANY presecutor to bring charges against them for unlawful prayer in a public school.

I heard a statement the other day, maybe Veteran's Day, I'm not sure. But the weight and just of the statement made more sense to me than I can describe.
I'll probally screw it up, but here goes anyways:

Why is it hundreds of thousands of people gather in homes, bars, stadiums across this Nation every weekend to cheer football games, NASCAR, etc etc......

....yet they don't gather and cheer the same way on Veteran's Day for those who sacrificed so much for them to be able to do so?

It makes me sick to think about. To think this is where the moral fiber of this country IS? And another War is going to change that?

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Unfortunately, I think history is going to repeat itself.
