“You shall not spread a false report. You shall not join hands with a wicked man to be a malicious witness. “ Exodus 23: 1
This little doozer showed up in my email box today. As you can see, it claims to be from the RNC and begins with an obvious lie. As the Christian Right, the RNC, the Trumpers, sycophants, boot-lickers, all join hands together to spread falsehoods, I now turn to mock you all with a rewrite of a beloved anthem I sang about a million times as a first grader.
Enjoy.
My country ‘tis of thee, beating the libertines
Of this I sing
Land of my fathers white
Land that the pilgrims eyed, carved on Stone Mountain’s side
Let freedom ring!
My native country be, where the cabal will flee
The One I love
I love thy shocks and shills
Thy hoods assembled still, my heart enraptured thrill
Praise god above
Our music quell the sleaze
And bring them to their knees
Greet freedom’s song!
Immortal sons awake, god’s land bequeathed retake
Our Rock to silence, break, him crowned belong
Our father’s god to thee
White male theocracy
To thee we bring
Long may our land be bright
Wise prophet’s holy light
God’s will decide by might
Crown Trump our king!
