A Pep Rally For U.S.

Everything doesnt have to be a fist fight. Yet all we do is argue.  The far right hates the left.  The far left hates the right. This fight is pointless because neither side can win and America loses.  Coincidentally FALL OUT BOY just covered Billy Joels classic, "We Didnt Start the Fire" and that inspired me to create my own list. Mine isnt history.  Its my list of things in America WE CAN agree on.  Yes, its a pep RALLY of things that are great about this nation. I dont sing it and none of it rhymes but that too is great for America.  Hear it here on this new episode of LIVE FROM MY OFFICE!
