Thanks

To the One from whom all blessings flow

From the unworthy ones living here below

For the Light You’ve given to show Your Way

For the friends who’ve graced us day by day

For the ones who blazed the paths we tread

For the ones whose blood was, for freedom, shed

For the ones You’ve given us for neighbors

For uncountable times You’ve granted favor

May we seek You more each passing hour

And tremble at Your might and power

Lest we forget our humble station

You bless America, we bless You — Your nation

  1. Thank you to God who has given all me all that I have,
    Thank you to my family who are all that I need,
    Thank you to my friends (here and abroad) who are all that I want,
    Thank you for those who provide the examples I chose to avoid,
    and finally THANK YOU to those who have given the last measure of devotion and those who love them.

    There is nothing I can say that will explain the depth of my gratitude to you. You make my life possible.

    God bless us, everyone.

  2. Thanks for Palin.
    Thanks for talk radio which backed Palin and said she was great.

    You helped liberals win.

    [Thanks for the traffic and for showing us the opposite of graciousness in victory, Ed.]

  3. Thank you my government For spreading my wealth And for leaving me these giblets There was nothing on the shelf And though I stood in line Begging for your pork At least you were kind enough To hand out plastic sporks I know with all the bailouts You forgot little old me But did you have to tax my pot Every time I pee …………… arrggghhh, I can’t do that on a great day like this, Happy Thanksgiving everybody.

  4. Thanks to IMAO for making good times better and bad times more bearable.

    Thanks to trolls for constantly reminding me that liberalism is the suicide cult of the crack babies going through the terrible twos who could never pass a logic class, let alone rub two facts together.

    Off to the family! See ya later!

  5. Happy Thanksgiving to all. IMAO is one of the things for which I’m thankful. That applies to the contributors and to the commenters, as well. I can count on all of you for a good laugh, and for sharing my love of this wonderful country. Thanks, fellas and gals.

  6. Holiday Prayer to Mecca:
    Thank you for Obama, Hillary and Bill
    Thank you for Ayers and his bombing that is still
    Thank you for Reverened Wright who never could be wrong
    Thank you for Liberals give them wisdom from their bong
    Thank you for hope and America that is changed
    Thank you for leaders that are permanently deranged

  7. Sorry for the above post. That was my evil twin. I would like to make amends

    Dear Lord in heaven we honor you this day
    And ask for your compasion to show us each our way
    We give you thanks for all your gifts and the brotherhood we share
    You have given us our country and responsibility to bear
    That to whom much is given much is required in return
    Please help us God in heaven to deserve your love and learn
    That we can all be leaders and serve what you’ve ordained
    Through faith and trust and love for you our nation is maintained

  8. I second everyone’s (serious) thoughts, especially Seanmahair (you always say things so well!)

    It’s always comforting to come here and find like minded people as well as have a good laugh!

    God Bless you all and have Happy Thanksgiving!

  9. Thanks for posting such a relevant poem, it will be on my mind the rest of the day (in a good way).

    Even though things have been looking very bad politically, there is still hope. And even when there isnt any, it will pop up when we least expect it.

    God bless all, have a great thanksgiving!

  11. Psalm 9:1-2
    I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart;
    I will tell of all thy wonderful deeds.
    I will be glad and exult in thee,
    I will sing praise to thy name, O Most High.

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    (Only 28 more shopping days ’till Christmas!)

  12. I’m sorry to say, reading this a couple days after Thanksgiving, that I thought this was the Obama followers’ theme song, written to the One Himself. If you had Hollywood B-list celebs quoting this in front of a white backdrop, while groovy music played in the background, you could really have created a nice commercial for him.

  13. Hmmm – not sure why this poem would make seanmahair think this person has a sad life? Help me out – was I to assume that for this poem was about “the one obama”?
    Even then, feel sorry?
    I guess it was too much to think that for the Thanksgiving time this was actually a poem giving Thanks?

  14. Wow Monkey, I go away for a few days and you post something….. moving (?)! Good Job!

    BTW

    #2… no, thank YOU! As much as we abhor the termination of young lives unfulfilled, the thought that 80-90% of them were little potential liberal voters makes the pain almost bearable. Just keep moving forward and you can move closer to self extinction.

  15. I do hope everyone had a bountiful Thanksgiving surrounded by good food, good friends and family, and lots of laughter.

    “The ultimate test of man’s conscience may be his willingness to sacrifice something today for future generations whose words of thanks will not be heard.” (G. Nelson)

    Blessings to all of you (with a shake of the head to the trolls), and especially those in uniform for whom the above quote fits to perfection.
