Celebrate Dependence Day If You Are A Lib. Others may celebrate what Independence we have left.
When I was medevaced out of Vietnam in 1970 my life ended and it ended for some time. Many of us felt worthless - for some time. But, eventually we learned "But By The Grace Of God Go I." There are many vets from all wars, as well as patriotic non-veterans, wondering why we did it and what is the use when the sneering, non-patriot types (I'll be kind, today, July 4th, and just call them libs)seem to have taken control of our government, overthrown the Constitution, destroyed the Free Market, and want to regulate every facet of our lives.
I believe, like Sarah Palin, and by the grace of God, we can overcome those insidious powers-that-be in politics,Hollywood, entertainment, the media, academia, and even in the lib churches, who are way below their paygrade and do not know what they are doing to this once great country. [I know Rush says that they do know what they are doing, but their cult of personality has thoroughly blinded them.]
I applaud Sarah Palin for becoming free of her public service, and joining the many strong and growing movements, including our Tea Parties and Freeper action groups which are not giving up, and never will.
The God of Israel has a Word for all the peoples of the earth who deny His anointed Son Jesus Christ as Lord, Saviour and coming KING of all the earth from His ordained throne in Jerusalem.
Psalm 2
1Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
2The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying,
3Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us.
4He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the LORD shall have them in derision.
5Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure.
6Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion.
7I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.
8Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
9Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.
10Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
11Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
12Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
With Obama in office I really feel like being a flag burner. I have a love for country, but not this country today. I am having a tough time celebrating today. So I am just going to cookout.
Love that old time Old Joe Clark fiddle and banjo
Very nice,kindred, and Amen

Old Joe Clark, the Preacher's son
Preached all o'er the plain-
Only sermon that he taught
Was "High card, Jack, and game" !
Old Joe Clark he had a house
'Twas fifteen storeys high
An' every window in that house
Was filled with chicken pie ! (And that's all I remember.)
