Absolutely fantastic! I have always loved his rendition.
This was a great man and soo funny. I have the video of his very last perfromance on stage before he died. Laughed so hard and nearly had a hernia. --------------------  "The most terrifying words in the English language are; I'm from the government and I'm here to help." – Ronald Reagan |

The thing is, he had a message. But I'm not sure if he was pro or con. He ends it by saying that there are 2 new states and the pledge has changed and now included "under God". But is he saying it's good or bad? To me it's vague.

A true American... too bad the word "Indivisible" has lost its meaning in this country.... What a difference it would make in how we conduct ourselves and how this country functions if we could truly be "one nation under God, Indivisible...." -------------------- |
