Have a safe and happy 4th of July!
You have the wrong country... That was before Obama..... America isn’t free anymore.
THANK YOU JIM FOR FReerepublic, GOD BLESS YOU AND ALL OF MY FReeper FRiends..
Hence my loathing of liberals who have conspired to destroy the culture necessary to sustain the America we once knew.

Damn screen is getting blurry.
Thanks for the post.
What a beautiful essay. My screen is all blurry. I’m proud, too, that you are a GREAT American.
America does have a proud and amazing past. It is her future I fear for.
Now the government can madate that you all attend a socialism reeducation camp or pay a $100,000 tax to the IRS or go to jail.
Well this is just the latest crime against America and freedom these democrats have done. Obama also just lawlessly passed the Dream act Amnesty for illegals, in defiance of Congress.
You all say Roberts is a not a democrat , well he is a socialist.
What democrats have turned America into now is a debt ridden hell hole in which each of us pay now $3000 dollars per year, just to pay the interest on the federal debt. That's not our share of the debt it is our share to pay the interest on the debt per year. If that alone doesn't tell you we are done I don't know what I have a 100 more things like this that democrat Obama monster had done to destroy America.
Yeah, my vision's a little blurry too.
And you could have read the same thing about the Roman Republic around 150 BC.
The America my ancestors came to, and I grew up in, no longer exists.
Old Glory will stay in my garage Wednesday. I have no allegiance to a regime that oppresses me.

A wonderful story.
On the other hand, some of us are a little less proud recently than formerly.
Democrats like Obama , Pelosi , Reid, and Roberts just turned America into a socialist state.
The only American institution I remain proud of is the military and now that it’s gone fag I’m not sure how much longer that’s going to last.
Must be a bug computer issue. All these blurry screens. Mine, too.
Three proposed constitutional amendments initiated by the States to help get our country back on track
1) Balanced budget amendment - after 5 years the Federal Government shall have a balanced budget with expenditures not to exceed revenue. All funds designated as “trust funds” by Congress shall only be utilized as designated (Social Security, Medicare, Transportation, etc.). Two years every five years by a 2/3’s majority in each chamber of Congress and signature by the President, an emergency can be determined and the revenues exceeded by expenditures. Any increase in the debt limit shall also require a 2/3 vote of Congress and signature by the President.
2) Term Limits - House of representative members shall be limited to a total of 10 years of lifetime service. After four years the top half of senior representatives that exceed 10 years service must give up their seats and after 2 more years the rest shall. The Senate members shall be limited to 12 years of lifetime service. After 6 years all Senators up for election exceeding 12 years shall not be able to run and each election afterwards. Service in either the House or Senate shall not be counted against the term limits in the other chamber.
3) Citizenship Requirements - Anyone born in the USA with one parent a legal resident shall be considered a US citizen. Any person born outside the country to two US citizens shall be a US citizen. Children under the age of 18 of naturalized citizens shall be US citizens.
The Federal Government shall not require the States to pay for education, medical services, or other services for anyone in the country illegally.
These amendments can be initiated and ratified outside of Congress by the Stare legislatures and are the only way I see that we the people can role back the power of the imperial congress.

Thanks so much, Carlo. Wonderful post.

May God continue to bless America.
