Original text in yellow, anagram in pink.

The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much, it is whether we provide enough for those who have too little.
-- Franklin D. Roosevelt

Let those who have the most keep it. Christ, if we spread around to the so-called 'have-nots' who have no hot food or rent, few would ever inherit their smooth fortune.
-- George W. Bush

The Preamble to the United States Constitution

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquillity, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

In the name of national security,
we people of 'freedom' (Bush, Cheney, Ashcroft), without an able ounce of sense,
just love to enter into agreement
to help our rich friends belittle democratic institutions,
toss out the 'outmoded' Bill of Rights,
imprison 'terrorists' after speedy secret trials,
defraud some deportees, and invade Iraq.

The Pledge of Allegiance

I pledge allegiance to the flag, of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

Those dirty, flag-waving Republicans
often pander without limit
just to get Bush the oil thief elected again.
Arnold's bold farce election
in California is hated indeed.

The first sentence of the Gettysburg Address.

Fourscore and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
-- A. Lincoln

Last year I listened to internal people,
and invaded Iraq to overthrow that Hussein character.
France ranted.   Fine.
It's about free oil --
no connection to democracy.
Don't no-one laugh.
-- G. Bush

A quotation attributed to George Bernard Shaw.

England and America are two countries separated by the same language.

Many can declare, "A sole, meager tongue wedges Britain and the USA apart."
