So here it is, Fourth of July weekend. The weekend we assert our Independence, the very essence of what makes our country great. We throw parties, drink beer, set off fireworks, rubbing it in. Nevermind the fact that the very country we sought Independence from, Britain, is one of our closest allies today. That's neither here nor there, they've simply come to their senses and realized, "damn, we screwed up..."
And what's so damn great about being Independent? Well for starters, I can write this and (to my knowledge) the government won't censor me or have me arrested. What is so brilliant about this country? Why don't you ask those people that come here, risking life and limb, every day to "chase the American dream." Clearly somebody wants to be here....
So go out, buy some sparklers, light your grill, and stick your nose in the air, with that "nah nah nah nah nah" attitude, because we are free and independent, and no one else has what we have...
