“We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.”

I’m pretty sure the last time we were at war with the British was, oh, right about two hundred years ago, as a matter of fact. Life really is too short to hate the British in general, or the Windsors in particular, that much. I don’t even hate Charles. I’ve come to the conclusion that anybody who would cheat on Diana Spencer with Camilla Parker-Bowles is simply either visually or mentally disabled. I wish Harry happy hunting and a long and happy life with the girl who catches him.

In fact June 18th is the 200th anniversary of our declaration of war against Great Britain.

The one good thing that came out of that war was "the Star-Spangled Banner."

We threw away the other good thing: the British captured Detroit, but the idiot peace negotiators insisted on Britain giving it back to us.

Good post Rich...I sincerely hope God loves and protects who ever the lucky girl is and I hope she is up to the tasks.
