I've watched/played this over and over again. No matter how many times I watch it I still get tears in my eyes. I am a proud American. Every time I hear the National Anthem I get emotional. There has been a lot of sacrifice to keep the freedom that we have here. It just makes me ill to see how others in this country do not see that. Look around folks. Be incredibly thankful for the sarifices those people have made so you can enjoy the freedom that is AMERICA.

Too bad George Washington isnt around to lead a revolution. Even Jeff Spicoli in "Fast Times at Ridgemont High" told Mr. Hand...."if we dont get some cool rules,we'll just be bogus too!"...we are officially bogus too Spicoli!
GOD BLESS THE USA I love it here and never want to move from this awsome land GOD BLESS THE USA UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Rocks
From the lakes of Minnesota to the Hells of Tennessee. Across the plains of Texas and from seas to shining sea. From Detroit down to Houston. From New York to LA. There's pride in ever American heart and it's time we stand and say that "I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free. And I won't forget the men who died to give that right to me and I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today. Because there ain't no doubt, I love this land. God bless the USA.
alot of people forget that this song was written at a time when americans were fighting for theyr freedom against tyranny....now, when i see the flag of america, i think of tyranny....our government and the people that support it, have destroyed america...this is no longer a land of the free, it is the land of oppressive government and dictatorship...a land where the government is the master, and the people are subjects of the master...the opposite of the america over 200 years ago
Great video. Well made and very patriotic. Thank you for posting this - you made my day and, by the looks of your comments, you made the day of thousands of others.
I"m sure you think I am an idiot for posting that but I had a gf that decided to fuck a negroe and then she ask me to help buy food for her baby bcuz her bf was such a dumb ass lazy fuck nigger,, so fuck off and die. I come from Dixieland where nigs are slaves!!!!
Obama goes to the Gulf for PR shots... I bet it costs us 1 million dollars to fly his lazy ass down there every time and he don't do SHIT. He is the dumbest fuck on the planet and some idiots voted him into office. God save this country.
Too bad our government is a bunch of boobs... repubes and demoncrats... they all suck... Hey I got an idea???? How about STOP crapping all our money away??? Is that a good idea???? STOP giving it to foriegn countries... STOP giving it to the LAZY... STOP wasting it !!!!!! How about trying to get more jobs in the USA instead of giving them all to China and India???? Run the government like a business and not a welfare agency.
Today is July 4, 2010. I posted this on my Facebook as a reminder that freedom is not free. God bless those who fight and die to keep the rest of us safe and God bless America.
@harleyrdr864 I can get along with black gay white or straight... How about if the government stops crapping out all our money like diarhhrea??? They blow all our money away while they vote themselves lavish retirement plans and healthcare and yearly raises and PORK!!!!!
Our beloved mad scientist Tom Scholz of Boston got this rockin' version idea, and all by himself, created, played all instruments, recorded it by staying up all night and finished in 24 hrs. He jokes that lawn care workers who came in the morning and heard it blasting out the windows probably thought he had 'gone mad'. I have my own studio and have made whole band sounding songs doing it solo but fall short of the 'genious' that is Tom Scholz. His talent and effort have always amazed me !!
Here is an explanation of how the US Flag and the hidden inner working COLORS of a gun are the same. The firing mechanism of a gun is located in an enclosed area in the upper corner of a gun, and it has two colors: very sad dark blue when reloading and at rest, and white sparks when being fired ( these white sparks ignite the red flame of the gun powder when the gun is being fired ). The long gun barrel has two colors: white outside light when it is at rest, and red flames when firing the gun.
Thank you for allowing me to bring into view this hidden subconscious gun explanation about the US flag. Of course a gun is not what the US flag stands for. The US flag also looks like many other things other than a gun, as for an example the US flag also looks like the SUN ( a star ) with its rays of sunshine energy that give life to this earth ( and maybe this similarity of the US flag is what the founding fathers had originally intended as the hopeful meaning within the US flag's symbols ).
For those lost on september 11, 2001; you will not be forgotten. The United States will avenge your untimely deaths and kill all those raghead son's of bitches.
This song combined with the video overwhelms me with gratitude towards our nation's heros. and enrages me towards the liberal assholes who try to bring this country down. HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!
Wow, I just wrote a comment just like this (unbeknownst to me that one had already been written) But it was SARCASTIC. I was lampooning the "patriots" whose first thought at the sound or sight of anything red-white-and-blue is how evil his fellow countrymen who happen to disagree with him are. Its pretty funny.
my aim is not towards the people who disagree with me.
it is towards the liberals who talk badly about the troops, about our country, and say that we don't deserve to celebrate independence day. and yes there have been liberals who have said that.
and it wasn't my first thought. my first thought was thanking the troops and being grateful for this great country. unlike the liberals who are selfish and want to bring this country down. bastards.
Too late buddy. Those liberals you described with those opinions speak for themselves and themselves alone. In a nation of 300 million opinions, you'll probably find somebody who believes in the craziest ideas you can think of.
This just shows American propaganda, combined with amazing american rock...god bless the USA, theyre fight is not for nothing...we from the north are thankful, however beaware every action has a reaction
