Ah, never mind, like the word "freedom" they just want to use the brand for marketing purposes.
The already do -- The Founding Fathers® selection of fine Bullshit runs the gamut from affordable populist bullshit, to extremist gun-toting bullshit, to milquetoast rich bullshit, to neocon kill'emall bullshit: there's a line of Founding Fathers® Bullshit for every social strata, education level, and income bracket.
Neil Peart Wrote:Ten score years ago, defeat the kingly foe
A wondrous dream came into being
Tame the trackless waste, no virgin land left chaste
All shining eyes, but never seeing
Beneath the noble bird
Between the proudest words
Behind the beauty, cracks appear
Once with heads held high
They sang out to the sky
Why do their shadows bow in fear?
Watch the cities rise
Another ship arrives
Earth's melting pot and ever growing
Fantastic dreams come true
Inventing something new
The greatest minds, and never knowing
Beneath the noble bird
Between the proudest words
Behind the beauty, cracks appear
Once with heads held high
They sang out to the sky
Why do their shadows bow in fear?
The guns replace the plow, facades are tarnished now
The principles have been betrayed
The dreams's gone stale, but still, let hope prevail
History's debt won't be repaid
Beneath the noble bird
Between the proudest words
Behind the beauty, cracks appear
Once with heads held high
They sang out to the sky
Why do their shadows bow in fear?
