  • Yankee Doodle was not from the Civil War it was written by a British Surgeon commenting on the unsoldierly appearance of American troops during the French and Indian War and was sung to Colonial troops during the opening days of the Revolution to taunt them. American troops liked the tune and song and so adopted it as their own, eventually singing it back to the British as a Patriotic song

  • @DieterWulf so what ? I've never said it was created during the Civil War, i just said it was used during it. But I want to thank you for all the news you've offered to me and my video, thanks a lot :D

  • @claddaghcelt thank you, man.

  • @DieterWulf I think the origins of the song date back to the english civil war and are about Oliver Cromwell riding into Oxford wearing a tradtional English Bonnet with a large feather in it. Hense the lyrics rideing into town riding on a poney stuck a feather in his hat.... Like many American patriotic songs it was adapted by the revolitionaries who dont forget were from British backgrounds and the adapted version became more popular than the origional

  • @marvelfan234 that's fucking funny. i'm voting up.

  • Are the Tea Baggers still around?

  • @MrCherubhair1 are you realy that daft? then you should go awat because you came from Europe/Africa and thus came later then the indians

  • @SniperSurkov No, indians came to america from asia. They should go back.

  • The Tea Party anthem! lolololololol

    Proud Tea Party Patriot here by the way XD

  • "American Civil War `COSTED`"? Really? Dude, go get some grammar...

    The verbal form "costed" does exist, but it expresses the meaning "to calculate", not "to cost"!

    Man, I am not American, nor even English, but, hey... Really!?

  • @marvelfan234 never Union Rocks
