Forget "e pluribus unum." What should the real U.S. motto be?

[Arugula Latte]

In the spirit of Great Britain searching for a new national motto, I propose we come up with one for the U.S. My suggestion, with a nod to Dean Wormer, is:

"Apparently, 'fat, drunk and stupid' IS a way to go through life"

[AllegroRondo]

1. "We apologize for any inconvenience"

[MissMillie]

2. PERFECT!!!!!

[Burma Jones]

3. Show Me The Money

[LibertyLover]

4. "I got mine, you can screw off."

or, with a tip of the hat to the seagulls in Finding Nemo, "Mine".

[Javaman]

5. Freedom is just a word. nt

[ThomCat]

6. "Those of us at the top make the rules"

[Deep13]

7. Home of the Whopper

[sakabatou]

8. "Freedom is Slavery. War is Peace. Ignorance is Strength."

[Mad_Dem_X]

20. That one gets my vote

1984 has arrived.

[Trailrider1951]

9. "Ya want fries with that?"

N/T

[quip]

10. Resistance is futile; you will be assimilated. Have a nice day!

[KamaAina]

11. "I upped my income. Up yours!"

[catzies]

12. "The Best Government Money Can Buy But If You're Not Wealthy No Need To Apply."

See, it rhymes 'n everything.
