Founding This Country Wasn't Quite As Easy As History Books Tell Us...

On this Fourth of July weekend, let's celebrate with this classic from Stan Freeberg's United States of America.

  1. Omg, I haven't heard any Stan Freeberg in ages. It brings back memories. There used to be a number of satirists on records.

  2. Fun stuff. Do you think they really had special interests back then?

  3. Oh yeah. They had special interests and lobbyists too. Real history is interesting and makes you wonder how we got this far.

  5. I love AMERICAN History, I can't say I know much about It though. I learn from people that already know the information, and by asking questions, like I did In this case. I honestly would have never guessed our Government was even somewhat complex, that long ago.

  8. I had to delete the last two comments, because I didn't have accurate information about what I though I learned last night, about history. Maybe It was too late to be up, and I got CRS?
