Take back our country

1. A rallying cry for people who think the United States has been "taken over" by anti-American socialists, foreigners, liberals, Marxists, minorities, etc.

The phrase is typically used by white male conservatives who oppose any type of change they perceive as a "threat" to their "way of life." Instead of providing a specific plan for improving the country or the government, they imply that the nation has been "kidnapped" by evil people who hate America and want to destroy freedom.

Unanswered questions: A) Who is "we"? B) Where do "we" want to take the country back to?

2. A phrase that implies our current government is somehow "illegitimate" despite the election of November 2008 when a majority of Americans voted for Obama and the current Congress.
ED: "We've got to take back our country. Otherwise those people in Washington will force our children to become Communist Muslim freedom-hating slaves of Obama. The rest of us will be forced to live in secret FEMA concentration camps. Just you wait and see!"

make a train take a dirt road

Looks so striking they cause people to act in ways out of the ordinary. This can mean you're attractive or butt ugly.

But it usually means butt ugly.

take me down to the basement

Take me down to the basement is a song from Sam and Cat. Let’s play a game! Get to the end of the song. (NO CHEATING)
Take me down to the basement
Fill the bucket with cheese
Tickle your mother with a pucker fish
Kiss a rhinoceros and give a wish
Because it’s noodle soup for the sailors
And for the ones in the rain
And we won’t, won’t pay for this song because it’s in public domain! :D
