Drawing a line in the sandtrap

Amid all the reports of Bush's (no doubt staged) exchange of love notes with his national security advisor, no one has pointed this out: The song doesn't go "Let freedom reign" -- it's "Let freedom ring," you dumbass.

What was he thinking, Michael Moore might have asked -- though when I saw Moore on Conan O'Brian last night, it seemed he was already getting tired of answering the same questions about his blockbuster film. My theory: The use of "reign" was yet another use of crypto-Christian language so often employed by the nation's First Fundie.
