If it wasn’t risky, I’d love to see an old timey type celebration, on Congress Hill with a grounds fair, just like they show in the movies.

It would be old fashioned sweetness.

Compare and contrast with NYC lighting up the Freedom Tower to celebrate the dominance of the religion that killed thousands on its location.

We went last night. It was amazing.

The presentation mentioned God and his blessings several times and never spoke of racism and all the other stuff the left demands.

Wow. That is COOL! That’s real? That’s not some AI production?

Yeah, it makes you wonder what will be done this September to celebrate the 25th anniversary...

It looks like that was only eighteen minutes of it. It went on for over five hours.

Thanks, Yogafist. I guess I should have looked further instead of just reading the title... Ok, Freepers, you can watch the condensed 18 minute celebration and/or the 5 hour full version. LOL. Looks like I get to enjoy more of it now. Thnx
