ORIGINAL: HELLYEAH!

Can’t touch this, we rule it with a clenched fist,
On, top fuel with a death grip
Judged, by a weak little man with a pen in his hand and just doesn’t ****ing get it
Own, couldn’t stop us if you wanted to
School, breaking knuckles with a ruler,
Done, no more, emergence, to dominate you

Run, hide, your time is coming
Hunt, find, walking a fine line
Run, hide, my time is coming
Hunt, find, it’s just a matter of time

Talk your ****, and get some balls to back it
Plague, HELLYEAH coming with a vengeance
Victim, by a weak little man with a gun in his hand and I don’t ****ing get it
Sick, livid and my stomach aches
Rage, boiling over, full of hate
Weak, worthless, spineless and we’re coming for you

Run, hide, your time is coming
Hunt, find, walking a fine line
Run, hide, my time is coming
Hunt, find, It’s just a matter of time

Just like a storm rolling over,
Rebellion is rising, blazing the steeds,
Don’t Fire until you see the whites of their eyes,
Burned at the stake within me,

Warhead, payback, settle the score

Run hide, your time is coming,
Hunt, find, walking a fine line,
Run hide, my time is coming
Hunt find, It’s just a matter of run hide

Theodore Roosevelt's Ideas on Immigration and being an American in 1907

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and NOTHING BUT AN AMERICAN... There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American but something elso also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but 1 Flag, THE AMERICAN FLAG....We have room for but one language here and that is the English language....and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American People."

What happened?

What happened to our great leaders, we have not had a truly great leader in a long time.

Truly great quotes come from truly great communicators. Language and the ability to use itin orderarticulate a thought seems to be a lost art. Communication is the key to everything, why does this forum work? what keeps a marriage strong? what resolves deferences? Truly great leaders know this, and they can inspire, and let me tell you nothing is stronger than a group of people who are inspired. That is what makes the Marine Corps so effective, and that is what makes the radicals so dangerous. They are not just radicals they are inspired. It is whatmade us great, and it what our country has lacked for a long time.

We once had great leaders, great leaders of men: Lincoln, Jackson, Truman, Eisenhower, Roosevelt (Teddy and Franklin), Kennedy, Reagan, McArthur, Patton (I know I left some out),these are only a few. No matter what you think of their politics, no matter what you think of their achievements or failures, they were all great communicators, and they inspired a nation, and a nation followed. We need this now more than ever

Ok, sorry

I will get off my soap box
This was a great thread

Man thanks Starship

Let me tell you, I guess I am a throw back or something. I am 100% baseball, hot dogs, apple pie, John Wayne, and Chevrolet. I think we should all start asking ourselves "What would Jesus do"? followed very very closely with "What would John Wayne do"?

You are right on
GOD BLESS THE USA!!!!! because nobody else is going to
