HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY, and GOD BLESS AMERICA

IT'S NOT JUST THE 4th OF JULY, IT IS OUR DAY OF INDEPENDENCE

As Americans, today we set aside the trivialities of everyday life to remember why we enjoy what few in the history of the world have ever experienced, a totally Free Country..

But for the courage of a few, who bravely, at the sacrifice of all they possessed, laid down a marker that the world had never seen, ALL OR NOTHING, FOR FREEDOM..

Without their tenacity, and vision, we would be under the boot of some tyrant, struggling to survive at their whim.. Instead we live in a land of plenty, with unbridled rights, unheard of before we set the bar so high that so many before us have been willing to die to defend, and protect..

History has shone that our Declaration of Independence, from the tyrannical government of Great Britain, was to be seen in our time, to all the people and Nations of the world, as the apex in democracy, a document that has stood the test of time..

Take a moment out of your festivities to remind those who share our blessings of Liberty.. That we are indeed humbled, to live so wonderful a life in the long shadows of those brave, courageous, and generous men from 1776, and all those that have sacrificed since, do so with our undying gratitude..

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY, and GOD BLESS AMERICA

I’m just curious, whats your problem? You are a rude little twit..

I can forgive a mistake calling me a “pimp”, because I posted it early, just because I’ll be in transit on the 3rd and 4th..

Settle down my strange freeper friend.. Geeez

I’ve been saying it for several years now.

I was born in the 50s and cherished my freedom, loved my country, and loved being Patriotic. Since realizing just how much freedom we have lost, and just how many people are living off government largesse, I feel that “Happy Dependence Day” makes the point better than talking about gaining independence from the crown. That war was won long ago. We are in a current bitter culture war and it is not going so well.

I am so dismayed over our diminished economy, and degenerating culture.. You must understand as I do, we are tittering near the point of no return.. My, my.. :/

IMHO, WE are beyond the point of no return due to demographics and the entrenched infrastructure of those destroying the economy and culture. This is why I now have all of my hope and faith in God, and none in man. There is no Conservative white knight riding to our rescue.

Have faith my Friend.. I’ve seen too much that seemed as bad, as in the 60’s, and we always come back, albeit not as strong as before..
