WASHINGTON Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel released the following message celebrating Independence Day:
"Happy Fourth of July to all Americans," said Chairwoman McDaniel. "As we celebrate more than two centuries of independence, we honor the patriots who declared America a free nation in 1776. We also remember and thank our service members for their lasting dedication and countless sacrifices to guard our liberties."
"On this Independence Day, we pledge to uphold Americas founding principles and continue to fight for our inalienable rights: life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for all."
Nearly two and a half centuries ago, a band of patriots gathered in Philadelphia to declare that all men are created equal. Our nation has changed dramatically since those words were first written on parchment. Generations of brave Americans from service members to civil rights activists have fought to expand the promise of equality for more Americans and move our country forward in its march toward a more perfect union.
As we celebrate our nations independence, we recognize that Americas founding promise remains out of reach for too many families. Too many members of our society are still struggling to find a good-paying job or get the health care they need. Too many women, LGBTQ Americans, people of color, and people with disabilities still face inequality and injustice across our society.
Everywhere we look, our most fundamental values are under attack. Thousands of children have been separated from their parents at our southern border. At our highest court, workers' rights are being taken away, voting rights are under assault, Muslim Americans are being discriminated against for their faith, and women's right to choose is under threat like never before.
The Democratic Party believes that all people are created equal no matter who they are, where they come from, who they love, or how they pray. As we celebrate our nation's independence, Democrats reaffirm our commitment to fighting for the values of inclusion and opportunity for everyone."
Wow...I bet you are all the life of the party today.
That’s got to be satire, right?
In a village deep in the heart of suburban Chicago, in what used to be a traditional Republican stronghold county, the Independence Day parade had ONLY Democrat candidates’ presence. Sad.
Is that from The Onion? You do know that some FReepers are humor-challenged and satire is required to be labeled as such.
;^)
The DNC statement is only being reported through the media. I can’t find it on their website or FB page. But it’s ascribed to Perez on a MSM website to which we’re not to link, with the headline “’Our most fundamental values are under attack’: Democrats issue bleak July Fourth statement”.
And how losers celebrate Independence Day:
It's great to be a winner!
Democrat “fundamental values” - abortion, perversion, entitlement, atheism.
You forgot, corruption, embezzlement, steeling and plotting to overturn the duly elected POTUS.
Gosh, I could go on and on actually. But I’ll let others amplify. We’ve got so much to work with.
islamism
You want some cheese to go with your whine Tommy?
I love it when Democrat statements can be taken as a lampoon of themselves.
This is a winner...
THE RNC statement is a uniting statement making no political claims or charges of the day. The DNC statement is not a universal statement concerning the 4th of July, but a complete poliical partisan argument on issues of the day.
Well, that certainly is how the hate America crowd sees things these days.
“Democrats reaffirm our commitment to fighting for the values of inclusion and opportunity for everyone.””
Everyone except white, Christian male heterosexuals.
And this adds up to a very evil group of ignorant anti-Americans.
