My Music Monday - Ray Charles - America The Beautiful (Live in D.C.)


Even if we voted against him, we still owe the world an apology.  He who must not be named was a mistake, as a civilized country we owe the world better.  We are making changes, effective this week.  We promise to try to do better in the future. The first time I visited the Grand Canyon as an adult, this song was playing in my head as a hiked along the south rim. What a wonderful memory.

  1. I'm almost glad we currently see so few people. Each time I do see someone I feel the need to apologize and tell them how ashamed I am. For me, America the beautiful had so much more meaning and irony when Ray Charles sang it.

    1. I remember a restaurant owner in Paris, who asked 10 questions about how W could be president.

    Thankfully you didn't make the same mistake twice and it is not looking like the same mistake will be made to that degree again at the next election.

    1. One of the reasons the impeachment trial needs to go ahead, is conviction by the Senate can lead to banning HWMNBN from every holding federal office again.

      Not an automatic banning as I thought then.

    1. If only we knew how to get the delusional leader, to admit that he is wrong.
