The Illogic of Lee Greenwood

Published: July 4th, 2008

Lee Greenwood is famous for his 4th of July masterpiece, “God Bless the U.S.A.” One thing has always bothered me about it. It’s this line:

And I’m proud to be an American where at least I know I’m free.

What the hell does this mean? Does Lee Greenwood actually live on another American citizen? Or has Lee so confused the land he loves with himself that they are cognitively inseparable for him?

If so, hats off, Lee Greenwood — your patriotism runneth over.
