You know, the Chinese communist parties corporations that your leader, Oil Pimp Steve sold our future energy rights to, and he was even kind enough to include the right to sue us, if they don't agree with our environmental policies.

Even a person who will be executed is treated with dignity during remaining time left on earth by having a choice of some finer things in life....such as his /her favourite food etc which will be there last. This man who is seeking to contribute to inclusivity in our national anthem deserves such a fate as those others with a dying wish.....or last supper. To justify their lack of humanity...timeliness....compassion....they stoop to the lowest common denominator....the worst in us. As this all plays out....even though I am not a liberal....I hope the greater angels in us triumph against the worst in us exhibited by the Cons.
