What We are Fighting For

We hold these truths to be self-evident:  That all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; that, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed........And for the support of this declaration,...... we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.

Declaration of Independence, 1776

Absolute knowledge have I none 

But my aunt's washerwoman's sister's son

Heard a policeman on his beat 

Say to a laborer in the street

That he had a letter just last week

Written in the finest Greek

From a Chinese coolie in Timbuktu

Who said that the natives of Cuba knew

Of a colored man in a Texas town

Who got is straight from a circus clown

That a chap way over in Borneo

Said that he had happened to know

Of a sublimated social rake

Whose mother-in-law would undertake

To prove that her husband's sister's niece

Had stated in a printed piece

That she had a son, who had a friend

Who said he knew the war would end.
