Happy 236th Birthday America!
****Happy 4th of July****



Is it possible to put partisan bullshit "away", and post what politically oriented news we are thankful for?

I will start.
I am happy that the topic of health care/and lack of coverage is front and center in American politics.
Regardless if President Obama wins or loses, the cow is out of the barn now.
This isssue is front and center, and will be a major issue/cause/concern for at least the next 236 years.

I am happy that despite the many, many, issues I am not thrilled about in this country, I would not have wanted to be born anywhere else.
{I feel this way, most of the time.}

Here are 10 fun 4th of July facts, that many don't know!
4th of July fun facts~

Again Happy 4th of July, kinkster's, and as the late Rodney King asked, "Why can't we all get along?"

Perfectly Stated.

Happy birthday, America!!

quote:

Let us, then, fellow-citizens, unite with one heart and one mind. Let us restore to social intercourse that harmony and affection without which liberty and even life itself are but dreary things. And let us reflect that, having banished from our land that religious intolerance under which mankind so long bled and suffered, we have yet gained little if we countenance a political intolerance as despotic, as wicked, and capable of as bitter and bloody persecutions.

. . .

But every difference of opinion is not a difference of principle. We have called by different names brethren of the same principle. We are all Republicans, we are all Federalists.

Not to be persnickety, but Rodney's quote was, "can we all get along."

Yes, by all means, let's put aside partisanship and all agree that with this ruling from the Supreme Court, individual liberty took it the ass this year.

(Rodney's request was ignored too, y'know)
