Who is the greatest American???

[ferdville]

Ben Franklin - one of the most intelligent and supposedly charismatic men of all time. Franklin was a writer, a politician, an inventor, and a male whore. How could you not like him?

I think Lincoln gets way too much credit. His famous Emancipation Proclamation was done for political expediency and didn't free all of the slaves, just some of them. He survived and demonstrated excellent leadership in a very tough time. But when you examine some of his motives, it all comes back to being a politician and doing what was right for him and his party. I admire him, but don't put him on a pedestal.

Country was never in better shape...

Who else gets blow jobs in the oral office ?

I'd believe you bet against the Dolphins before I believe that!

Don King

Don King is the Greatest American ... the reason is that no one takes better advantage of his freedom of opportunity to benefit himself at everyone elses expense ... and we know that really that is the American way!


The main attraction, distraction
got ya number than number than numb
Empty ya pockets son, they got you thinkin that
What ya need is what they sellin
Make you think that buyin is rebellin
From the theaters to malls on every shore
The thin line between entertainment and war
The frontline is everywhere, there be no shelter here
Speilberg the nightmare works so push it far
Amistad was a whip, the truth was feathered and tarred
Memories erased, burned and scarred
Trade in ya history for a VCR

Cinema, simulated life, ill drama
Fourth Reich culture, Americana
Chained to the dream they got ya searchin for
The thin line between entertainment and war

There be no shelter here
The frontline is everywhere

Hospitals not profit full
Yet market bulls got pockets full
To advertise some hip disguise
View tha world from American eyes
Tha poor adore keep fiendin for more
Tha thin line between entertainment and war
They fix the need, develop the taste
Buy their products or get laid to waste
Coca-Cola is back in the veins of Saigon
And Rambo too, he got a dope pair of Nikes on
Godzilla pure mutha****in filler
To keep ya eyes off the real killer

Cinema, simulated life, ill drama
Fourth Reich culture, Americana
Chained to the dream they got ya searchin for
Tha thin line between entertainment and war

American eyes, American eyes....
View the world from American eyes
Bury the past, rob us blind
And leave nothin behind

Just stare

Relive the nightmare
