Why fight it...Don't fight it...just be assimilated like everybody else - not that you don't have a choice, but what other choice is there? I'll just let the video speak for itself.
Welcome to The Lemon Harangue. A Harangue is defined as a speech addressed to a public assembly...a ranting speech or writing...a lecture. In reality, it's just a place for me to stand on my soap box and rant at times, rave at other times, and hopefully have some good, lighthearted fun. Hope you enjoy!

Hope For America's Future!
WRITTEN BY A 15 yr. Old SCHOOL KID IN ARIZONA : New Pledge of Allegiance (TOTALLY AWESOME)!
Since the Pledge of Allegiance
and The Lord's Prayer
Are not allowed in most
Public schools anymore
Because the word 'God' is mentioned.....
A kid in Arizona wrote the attached
NEW School prayer:
Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule
For this great nation under God
Finds mention of Him very odd.
If Scripture now the class recites,
It violates the Bill of Rights.
And anytime my head I bow
Becomes a Federal matter now.
Our hair can be purple, orange or green,
That's no offense; it's a freedom scene..
The law is specific, the law is precise.
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.
For praying in a public hall
Might offend someone with no faith at all..
In silence alone we must meditate,
God's name is prohibited by the state.
We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,
And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks...
They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.
To quote the Good Book makes me liable.
We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,
And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.
It's 'inappropriate' to teach right from wrong,
We're taught that such 'judgments' do not belong...
We can get our condoms and birth controls,
Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles..
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,
No word of God must reach this crowd.
It's scary here I must confess,
When chaos reigns the school's a mess.
So, Lord, this silent plea I make:
Should I be shot; My soul please take!
Amen

Stumbled across this YouTube video and got a big kick out of it. You will too!

"Health Reform is a BFD" Men's T-Shirt
Once again, our President - and I only use the term out of respect for the office and not the man - Barack "Where's my Teleprompter" Obama and our faux pas of a Vice President Joe "Can't Tame the Tongue" Biden - also known as "Faux Pas Joe", or in other words the first clue we should have had that Obama was a socialist by bringing this "social blunder" on board as our nation's Vice President - show just how low, low-class can truly go by offering the T-shirt below for sale.
We all know how the Vice President during a congratulatory moment after the President signed the health care reform bill, whispered in the President's ear for all the world to hear, "...this is a big 'effing' deal...", (effing = PG version of what he really said), and what a shameful moment it was, certainly not the first and not just because of the bill itself, offered by our nation's executive leaders.
Now you might think some entrepreneurial and enterprising T-shirt shop owner at a mall kiosk near you, picked up on the phrase and the moment, and capitalized on it for a nice profitable short-term gain, allowing him to follow the long-standing and traditional American practice of "trickle down economics" by using that profit to hire an additional FTE, or provide some health insurance, or a raise here or there. Ideally, that would be true, however the ever-bandied about, warrior cry of the socialist that "trickle up poverty" is the new American way might rob that man of his ingenuity and income...but I digress...sorry...
No, this T-shirt will not be found at your local T-shirt shop. I have not found it online even, except for one place. Yup, you got it, you know it, you're so smart and ya figured it out, President Obama's own website. Talk about your websites that should exhibit the highest degree of integrity and honor, you would think a President of the United States of America's website would exemplify these traits right? Wrong! Instead the website amounts to nothing but an inglorious display by taking advantage of a serious shortcoming on the part of Faux Pas Joe and capitalizing (interesting choice of word there) on it by selling the shirt to raise funds for Obama.
Absurd? Yes! Lacking presidential etiquette? Yes! Stupid? Yes!
Surprising? No!
In all its glory, I give you...
