FoxTV Anthem Screw-up - Tea Bagger with 'Don't Tread on Me' Tattoo on his neck? Hmmmm

[tomm2thumbs]

How delicious a Tea Bagger who doesn't seem to care enough about his own country to bother to learn the words of its anthem.

[SkyDaddy7]

16. This is his day job...

"Country Boy"

Well I grew up down an old dirt road in a town you wouldn't know
My pops picked the place up for 1500 bucks back in 1964

My grandfather was a drinker back in the day he put 'em down
But a war is known to change a man and the whiskey is known to change a man

But, that's not me
I rarely drink from the bottle but I smoke a little weed
I still live in the sticks where you wouldn't go
In a town of 1200 off an old dirt road
And a country boy is all I'll ever be

Now it's been 12 years since I sold my soul to the devil in L.A.
He said "sign your name here on the dotted line and your songs they all will play"

He set up shop on sunset, he put me up at the marquee
He said "you wanna sell a million records boy you better listen to me"

He said "change your style, whiten your smile, you could lose a couple of pounds
And if you want to live this life, you better lose that wife, do you need your friends around?"

I said, no that's not me
Cause the biggest things in life are your friends and family
And I like my jeans and my old t-shirts
And a couple extra pounds never really hurt
Cause a country boy is all I'll ever be

Cause Hank taught me just how to stay alive
You'll never catch me out the house without my 9 or 45

I got a big orange tractor and a diesel truck
And my idea of heaven is chasing whitetail bucks
And as a country boy you know I can survive

Now two flags fly above my land that really sum up how I feel
One is the colors that fly high and proud
The red, the white, the blue
The other ones got a rattlesnake with a simple statement made
"Don't tread on me" is what it says and I'll take that to my grave
Because, this is me
I'm proud to be American and strong in my beliefs

And I've said it before but I'll say it again
Cause I've never needed government to hold my hand
And I've said it before but I'll say it again
Cause my family has always fought and died to save this land
And a country boy is all I'll ever be

I love my country, I love my guns, I love my family
I love the way it is now, and anybody that tries to change it
Has to come through me, that should be all our attitudes
'cause this is America and a country boy is good enough for me son

[Aldo Leopold]

18. Painful

"You'll never catch me out the house without my 9 or 45" and "I love my country, I love my guns, I love my family", in that order, I guess.

[Thespian2]

2. Pathetic excuse

for singing America's anthem. I wonder if anyone had the courage to tell him how shitty he was...especially in his attempt to remember the words.

[Jamaal510]

3. I could sense that

some of the players were trying to hold back their laughter.

[The Wizard]

4. drunk (NT)

[Historic NY]

5. He is what is known as a dumb fuck bagger.

[lobodons]

6. Nobody ever accused

Nobody ever accused teabaggers of higher intelligence thats for sure. (actually intelligence of any kind)

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

7. He probably was uncomfortable having to sing in librul San Francisco

He couldn't open carry his assault rifle on the field.

You damn dirty libruls violatin' his riiiiioooots.

[El Shaman]

8. Bet

[George II]

14. What does the captioning on the screen mean? Was that part of the movie? Very confusing...

15. Enrico Pallazzo is the guy tied up on the couch

watching his career tank courtesy of Frank Drebin.

Assuming that's the captioning you're talking about.

13. Yep - not just his tats but his views too

The fact of the matter is that the federal government is supposed to be doing 18 things efficiently and properly. Most of these things don’t even get looked at because they’re so busy doing stuff that they’re not even supposed to be doing. Everything is supposed to be on the state and local level.

Why does all the money from the state go to Washington, D.C., first before it comes back to the state? There are so many things broken about a system that was so amazing and so perfect on conception, that the creation of this country and the document that created it made this country the most sought after place in the world for many, many years.

Somewhere along the way as a society we lost all the values that made this country great to begin with. (Like) going out and working for a dollar and working hard to earn your keep and expecting nothing from anyone, expecting no hand-outs, knowing that nothing in life is free. All these things have just vanished. I mean, look at MTV.

They should all be burned at the stake for what they’re doing, for the programming they’re putting forward for our children to watch. There are so many things that have been allowed to just get so far out of control that the only way to fix it is to go back to the design.

This whole entitlement society that we live in today. Everybody thinks that they’re supposed to get something. Where did that come from? I don’t understand. I don’t understand how people today can think that somebody’s going to provide for them.

17. Typical ignorant redneck Republican asshole.

Ignorant.

[Dopers_Greed]

20. Funny that he singles out MTV

I remember them giving his shitty band quite a bit of airplay back in the early 2000's.
