[quote:Anonymous Coward 36028555:MV8yNTc1OTg3XzQ0OTM5MzkyX0UzMDM1NDRE] [quote:Taewen:MV8yNTc1OTg3XzQ0ODUzNDU4XzgxOEQyMkJC] I'm trying to find some audio or video examples of the 'homeland' phrase being used by the President and other political leaders. Would like to find the earliest example possible to maybe timeline the 'Homeland' plan/agenda. Any help would be appreciated.

Original Message
During his live speech regarding Iraq, the president
AGAIN
referred to the United States as the 'Homeland'. For some reason, every time I hear a politician say that it gives me the creeps, like a flash of foreign armies marching across the plains of Nebraska
I did some looking around, and I guess I'm not the only one. First time I heard it was from Bush, and it's been cropping up a lot more lately.
Does anyone else get a prickling in the back of the neck when you hear it? I'm an American living in the
United States
, not the 'Homeland'!
I know I'm not the only one. I found this link from back in '02.
