And in other news: gosh darn lucky we stopped

... a group of elementary school children from singing "God Bless America" in honor of those who died on 9/11. Heaven forbid we allow any form of patriotism or display of love and pride for our country.

Crisis diverted...

According to Coconut Palm Elementary School Principal Terri Thelmas, the store manager gave her approval last week to bring the students to the store to sing a one-minute rendition of “God Bless America” inside the Walmart, located at Pines & Flamingo in Pembroke Pines.

Around 7 p.m. Wednesday, the group of 75 students and their parents showed up and the manager-on-duty told them they were a “liability” and that the kids would not be allowed to sing.

So, the kids went outside the store to sing. That’s when things got ugly: the manager called Pembroke Pines police to have them removed from the property.

What is sad is that I truly believe the majority of people in America believe that could never happen to us when the reality is that we are weaker and poorer and other countries have less and less faith in us with each passing month... it can happen and it can happen within our lifetime. I truly believe we are being set up for failure. It has been verbalized over and over that the downfall of America part of the bigger plan for the progressives.

I don't think the muslims would mind killing me, but that's what they'll have to do before I accept crap like that.
