Rob -- you really brought back some memories there. That is not a recent editorial. I heard that on WABC-AM, way back when it was a rock and roll station, around the time I was in sixth grade or so (early 70's). Around the same time songs like "the Streak" and "Hooked on a Feeling" were big on the charts, the commentary you mentioned was right up there with it.

I thought I recognized the name when I heard it, and was absolutely sure when I read the part about "an old caboose". The commentator's words were set to a background medley of "God Bless America" and other songs of patriotism and was released on a 45rpm record, which I and many others added to our collections of early Beatles and Stones songs. I'm sure I still have that original 45, tucked away in a storage room in New Jersey somewhere with the rest of my pre-CD record collection...

How unfortunate that it is difficult to discern that the commentary was written some 30 years ago, and how sad that many of the statements expressed there still apply today...

>>America: The Good Neighbor.

I believe in God, the Father almighty,
Creator of Heaven and Earth.

I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary.
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended into hell.
On the third day he rose again from the dead.
He ascended into Heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of the God the Father Almighty.
From there he will come again to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy Christian Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen.

..May God Bless and Keep you in your strife, Amen.

Mama, I and the kids are totally fine up here in the still and calm woods of Michigan, but I cry every night for you.

We worried. as we felt so close to you.
