God, how I hate that song.

Repukes are singing 'The Battle Hymn of the Republic.' Not only is it so hypocritical for them, but I REFUSE to sing it in church. So did Jimmy Carter during the memorial service for 9/11 in Washington.

1. More appropriate?

I didn't watch. I couldn't.

"Onward, Christian Soldiers" would have been more "in your face".

2. I refuse to sing that one too.

And we used to sing it all the time in chapel in the '60's. Crusade? I don't think so.
