I'm not one for sloppy sentimental patriotism. But I saw this on Facebook today, and something kinda popped in my brain (sometimes I think it may be a stroke when that happens, but anyway...).
The US National Anthem isn't exactly 'the people's song', cuz it can be a real bitch to sing it. But this is not the joint where we only do the easy shit. We do the hard things - and we do those hard things by choice.
It's just possible that we're gettin' back to where we're at least willing to do the hard work of democracy again. And if we can do that, the rest will follow.
