"Values Voters" rewrite God Bless America

Postby Rspaight » Sun Sep 23, 2007 9:10 am

As Republican candidates Tancredo, Huckabee, Keyes and Hunter looked on, their "Values Voters" debate featured this stirring re-imagining of an old favorite. Because unlike Democrats, Republicans *love* America. (At least the strange un-American America they want to create.)

Why should God bless America?
She’s forgotten he exists
And has turned her back
On everything that made her what she is

Why should God stand beside her
Through the night with the light from his hand?
God have mercy on America
Forgive her sin and heal our land

The courts ruled prayer out of our schools
In June of ‘62
Told the children “you are your own God now
So you can make the rules”
O say can you see what that choice
Has cost us to this day
America, one nation under God, has gone astray

Why should God bless America?
Shes’s forgotten he exists
And has turned her back on everything
That made her what she is

Why should God stand beside her
Through the night with the light from his hand?
God have mercy on America
Forgive her sins and heal our land

In ‘73 the Courts said we
Could take the unborn lives
The choice is yours don’t worry now
It’s not a wrong, it’s your right

But just because they made it law
Does not change God’s command
The most that we can hope for is
God’s mercy on our land

Why should God bless America?
She’s forgotten he exists
And has turned her back on everything
That made her what she is

Why should God stand beside her
Through the night with the light from his hand?
God have mercy on America
Forgive her sins and heal our land

Presumably these are the same morons who went apeshit when the Star Spangled Banner was faithfully translated into Spanish.

I'm surprised they didn't sing the Fred Phelps version.

God hates America!
Home of the fags
He abhors them
Deplores them
Day and night, all his might, all his days
From her mountains
To her prairies
To her oceans
White with foam
God hates America!
The perverts' home!

There's hypocrisy, and then there's hypocrisy, but: I can't imagine what would happen if Democrats pulled this.
