Let's have a real old fashioned noisy Fourth of July

[jlh]

I'm at a friend's place, sipping a beer and waiting for burgers and fireworks. I am actually wearing dark red capris, a dark blue tank top, a white short-sleeved shirt, and a necklace with little stars on it. I decided this morning that I was going to go ahead and be as patriotic as I wanna be because being patriotic isn't about agreeing with everything my government does, and I'll be damned if I'll let other people define what is patriotic. After all, what is more patriotic than working to make your country better? I'll also be damned, frankly, if I'll let them make me ashamed to be an American.

Have a Glorious Fourth!

Dude, the WP had an editorial on just this yesterday. Resisted the urge to link it all over creation, but so with you on this. Yes. *nod*
