(We Need to Be) The RE-United States

Once there was a nation, proud and unified
It's heart and spirit real, built with values more than steel
But slowly spoiled with riches, and caring less in time
The simple ways and strong beliefs were often cast aside

For many years, this mighty nation did just as it pleased
And then one day, "9-11", knocked it to it's knees

We need to be the RE-United States
The home and precious land that heroes still defend
Here are the choices, build it back, or let it fall
It's time to answer Freedom's wake-up call

So tell me what's the problem to say a prayer in schools?
No matter what the faith, a silent moment we should take
There are many who would disagree, but doesn't it seem odd
Our problems seemed to start Without "One Nation Under God"

Must there be a tragedy for flags to fly again?
Our Forces serve us everyday, even when the conflicts end.

We need to be the RE-United States
The home and precious land that heroes still defend
Here are the choices, build it back, or let it fall
It's time we answered Freedom's wake-up call.

	Traciewrote: man what a chore getting you added....no wonder it took me so long...i will come back later I am so exhaustedly frustrated for what I just went through to get you added.

	Kathleen Brucewrote: Hi again Bekke, I had to drop by and thank you for you visit and for your comment you left on The Kavern. Not too many people have been around either and a lot have dropped out because of the new Spaces. Now me I like them even though they are a little harder to understand you can put more more on them. I see you have fogured out the friends section but there is an easier way to do that. All you have to do is click on your friend's profile picture on his or her site and a little drop down box appears and all you have to do is click on invite to be a Messenger contract and an e-mail will be send to them. Easy as old heck. I hope this helps, I know it took me awhile to figure it out. Take care and big hugs, Kitty Aug. 23

	bob shortreedwrote: Hello my friend, love the poem. We had the same debate up here about reciting the lord's prayer in schools - political correctness run amok. Yes not everyone is a christian, but it is the official religion of this country... we're not a muslim based land, nor buddist, nor druids, Canada's laws and constitution are based on christian ethics. So how does recognising that go against the grain to the point a prayer in school is outlawed... it makes no sense to me. I see you have the same dillema up there. You can't please everyone nor ever will, yet there are those who'll take away from everyone in the attempt. Craziness. I hope you're feeling better real soon my friend. June 3
	Traciewrote: ps...can you delete that particular comment for me please... thanks...I don't want to be leading creeps there I just went to the space...I bet she does not even remember creating it as you said there is nothing there...lol. Tracie June 3
	Traciewrote: Oh my gosh...that is weird...that name is the teen that is here at the group home for young teen moms and pregant teens. Wow.....that is freaky why it would do that I believe I was signed in as me....I wonder how that happened. Now I am going to be more aware of who this computer signs me in as.....I am looking and it says luvsawranglerbutt.....that is weird...lol. Well I am glad your ok and sorry to hear about the bug...i hope your both in tip top shape soon! Thanks for stopping by! I hope to update soon, but I am still at the group home till weds after the day job. Maybe this afternoon cause I get to leave till 5pm today....and go home. relax...and get my arse back here...lol. Toodles {{{HUGZ}} Tracie June 3
