Brooks and Dunn-Only In America (video here [link] )
Sun coming up over New York City School bus driver in a traffic jam Starin' at the faces in her rearview mirror Looking at the promise of the Promised Land One kid dreams of fame and fortune One kid helps pay the rent One could end up going to prison One just might be president
Only in America Dreaming in red, white and blue Only in America Where we dream as big as we want to We all get a chance Everybody gets to dance Only in America
Sun going down on an La. freeway Newlyweds in the back of a limousine A welder's son and a banker's daughter All they want is everything She came out here to be an actress He was the singer in a band They just might go back to Oklahoma And talk about the stars they could have been
Only in America Where we dream in red, white and blue Only in America Where we dream as big as we want to We all get a chance Everybody gets to dance Only in America
Yeah only in America Where we dream in red, white and blue Yeah we dream as big as we want to

America. We may not have as many people dreaming the dream anymore, and our economy is in shit shape, but at least in America, we will always at least be free. We will ALWAYS have that.
ummmm what the hell are you talking about? WW2? Ya we are so foolish, never mind the fact that the Japanese army enslaved millions. You attack our army, unprovokved, what the hell do you want to happen? Japan at the time got what they deserved. Yes we are so foolish that right now you are using a PC who's OS operates on American technology, writing on a website who is hosted in America, using the internet invested by America. Yeah, we are foolish all right. How old are you?
And people, stop bitching about what happened years ago. You weren't even alive during that time, so you have no excuses.
This is from my Liberal point of view.
