    Okay, now I'm down the Lee Greenwood wormhole. Slow day on the desk, so I'm okay with this.

    Now I know that this lyric exists:

    From the shores of Nova Scotia
    To the forests in BC
    Montreal to Winnipeg
    From sea to shining sea
    Detroit we can see her
    Above the USA

    And because I love comment sections...

    And Jeff from Boston, Mass., wrote this inspired takedown on the SongFacts website: "Lee Greenwood is a FRAUD he also converted this song to say God Bless the UK and God Bless Canada.What a jerk, he claims in the song that he would stand with the men who fought to give us freedom. Where was he when his countries needed him in Vietnam?"

    Larry from Tobaccoville, N.C. had this to say: Patriotic songs are supposed to be sapy, or at least feel sapy. It's like bragging to a friend about how great your kid is at baseball, it may be true, but others feel weird hearing you brag about it.

    Matt in Raleigh, N.C. chimed in: RELAX PEOPLE! Lee Greenwood is young, talented and passionate."

    Next you'll tell me Paul Finebaum wasn't being sincere when he wrote "I Hate (your rival here) & 303 Reasons You Should Too" joke books about every football school on the map.

    So I've exposed Lee Greenwood? It's not even noon here and yet, my day feels complete.

    I just enjoy a world in which people feel the need to go on a website and either take down or support Lee Greenwood passionately.

    I was represented by Sheila Jackson Lee when I lived in Texas.

    I wasn't exactly in a red area of the state.

    You owe me responses on 10 or 15 past posts and I'm not buying into your goalpost carrying on this one.

    But I'll show more integrity than you usually do and say that I'd have to learn more about it. I am against any money being taken away from public programs and given to private/religious ones, which is what you want to happen with school vouchers. I'd have zero problem with those groups losing their federal funding to be consistent with the separation of church and state.

    Now try being honest in response and admit you are backpedaling regarding funding for Meals on Wheels. Thank you.

    So, Trump splooged quite often during the campaign about the failures and lies in the New York Times, yet he trusted it on the wiretapp story?

    Maybe YF didn't just vote for laundry. Maybe he just likes lying hypocrites.
