Have you forgotten?


 Darryl Worley got a little upset about American patriotism.  His song "Have You Forgotten?" reminds listeners about the September 11th terrorist attacks because apparently U.S. citizens have been complaining about the war in the middle east too much. Country songs are on the patriotic side but this one includes a few hidden messages.  The words send the message that we should be supporting governmental efforts in the middle east. Worley sings about the thousands that died in the towers but what about the thousands that have died since the war began?  The stereotypical american is illustrated through the song. We all know what we are fighting for...well some Americans may not share that same belief.

"This country is out looking for a fight...but after 9/11 man I'd have to say thats right."
