Edit: Princess If Im not mistaken the glory halelujah song your talking about is the Battle Hymn of the Republic and it was the Union States anthem at the time of the civil war. If you live anywhere up north that makes sense because they always play Dixie down south on the 4th

But why you say 'I am proud to be american". In what way is your country better then for example my country?
I do not feel my country is better than yours or most any other country. I am happy I was born in a country that is mostly free and that I have never had to worry about starving to death or losing one of my children to a curable disease. Im also happy that I have never had to live under a tyranical dictator or be treated like a peice of dirt simply because I am a woman. So when I say " I am proud to be an American" I am not putting anyone else down. I am just being thankful for all the good things I do have.

i wouldn't be here wasn't it for a link on google on the moscow ban that led me here.
i am shocked by the hatred many of you display in your posts.
some claim that we break up marriages, yet some of the happiest couples i know are faithfull brothers and sisters.
I know its pointless to reply to this since he wont be reading this. I find it laughable that someone posts and runs, I think hes afaid that he will learn to many disturbing thing that will shake his beliefs if he actually gets into a debate here.

OK yall just a warning Im Probably fixin to piss a whole lot of people off but I cant just read this and not speak up. AS many of you know my husband is a soldier in the United States Air Force. I am extremly proud of him and the job he does for this country. I think our freedom should be celebrated. Get over it if you dont like it. I spent the better part of my life so far being told that its wrong to be patriotic and now that Im free to think for myself I have decided that I do love this country I am proud to be American and will tell anyone who dosnt like it to kiss my butt.

if a dub needed your help as in a medical emergency or in getting employment/job contract or in getting your support in a dispute with someone on a non religious issue or in some other way such as in a car break down would you help them?
I would always help anyone in an emergency situation. Part of the reason I left was their lack of love. To pass a witness up that was in a bad way would be acting like them. Besides maybe it would open their eyes to the fact that people other than them are good.

so, i've been sitting at the computer all night long, not really panicked, but definitely disturbed at the thought of what the months to come will entail.. the port-a-cath was "installed" (surgically) on monday, and that was tough.
somehow the lumpectomy last month and even finding out that there was lymph node involvement was okay.
scary, but okay.
(((((((Brenda)))))))))
