Happy Fourth of July to all, whether you are a Democrat, Republican, Independent, Person of Faith or a non-believer, white,, black, red, yellow or chartreuse, straight, gay or anything in between.
I read a lot of articles lately about how patriotism is on the decline. That saddens me. We who are citizens of the USA are all Americans. Patriotism isn't about what political party is in power or what politician shouts the loudest. Those things are transitory. They'll pass. What will not pass is that this is a country founded by mutts, that believes in freedom, liberty and justice. Many have died for those principles. Countless others have put their lives on the line to defend those rights because they are rights worth living. Let's remember that and let's remember the sacrifice others have made.
Happy Fourth of July, my fellow Americans.
