Georgia Tea Party Member "Lewis" Sings Fourth Verse of Star Spangled Banner Video

The always excellent Herman Cain spoke at a Douglas County, Georgia Tea Party and called on "Lewis" who pointed out that we should know and sing the second verse [actually the fourth verse, I think] of the Star Spangle Banner. Then he sang it beautifully, a cappella. In the video below, watch the crowd. See the lyrics below the video.

As Michelle Malkin said: "This is an American Idol." Be inspired. Visit Herman Cain's website here.

Louis Sings Second/Fourth Verse of Star Spangled Banner at Georgia Tea Party (video)

Lyrics to Fourth Verse of the Star Spangled Banner:

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Thanks to my friend and Master Sculptor, David Lemon for this video. I'm linking to his bronze, Bronc Stomping - Edition 40. There is nothing more American than the American Cowboy and the American Indian. Take a rest from politics and read about Cowboys and Indians breaking broncs - completely different! Then visit a video of his Western Bronzes and his Bronze Gallery page here.

Lance Baxter Geico Spokesman Fired for Negative Tea Party Voicemail: DC Douglas is Lance Baxter

One of Geico's top advertising voice-over spokesmen has reportedly been fired for verbally attacking Tea Partiers and Freedom Works. The allegations are that Lance Baxter, also known as D.C. Douglas (not the voice of the Gekko), called Freedom Works and left a voice that among other things asks: (see a video below). New video added - hear Baxter's voicemail to Freedom Works. Update 1-4-11: Read a really nice update to this story here.

Lance Baxter - D.C. Douglas

"what percentage of people are mentally retarded?" (asks this twice)

"what are your going to do if someone starts killing somebody?" In the voicemail message

Baxter asks how Freedom Works will "spin it." He is the voice that claims:

15 min could save you 15% or more on car insurance.

Baxter/Douglas' voicemail, which included his phone number can be heard at BigGovernment, which also published Geico's customer service line.

Freedom Works also published the voicemails. Megyn Kelly on Fox America Live reports that Baxter, on his own website, is furious that his privacy has been breached by Freedom Works. Baxter/Douglas has two websites and both are down at the moment. He's getting a little bit of attention. He should love that. Apparently Geico did not. Here's the link to one of his websites and here's the second.

Freedom Works asked their volunteers to call Baxter/Douglas and explain that they are not "mentally retarded." I'm just hearing on Fox that Baxter says what Freedom Works did is "sleazy."

Freedom Works, from their website, says they "recruit, educate, train and mobilize hundreds of thousands of volunteer activists to fight for less government, lower taxes, and more freedom." See the second video below to hear Baxter's voicemail.
