| Message | I am not a big fan of the flag there, but since that isn't being voted for it is moot. As for the bill, the PDP agrees with the (cosmetic) changes. |
| Date | 22:46:07, November 21, 2005 CET | From | Left-Labor Party | To | Debating the Barmenistan Independence Act |
| Message | I wont send this to vote without a national anthem... Here is my suggestion: Lift up your head to the rising sun, Barmenistan; March on to glory your bright banners waving high. See how the world marks the manner of your bearing! Pledge to excel through love and unity. Pressing onward, march together to a common loftier goal; Steady sunward, tho' the weather hide the wide and treachrous shoal. Lift up your head to the rising sun, Barmenistan, 'Til the road you've trod lead unto your God, March On, Barmenistan. Ill admit, I stole it from the bahamas. But hell, it works. |
