Happy 4th of July, America!

Well said Lance and I agree.

May America continue to celebrate this day even though there is an effort afoot by some to have America subordinate itself to the UN.

Thank you for the birthday wishes!

Have a great afternoon!

Joining in with Lance and Ken(Kulak) to wish America and Americans a very Happy Independence Day.

Celebrate today as though it was 1789.

Best wishes to all my American friends and coworkers!

I wish I could revel in my country's birthday, but particularly in light of the recent awful, awful decision by the Supreme Court it only feels like Re-Dependence Day.

At least the King and the British Parliament were an ocean away. Washington, DC on the other hand can extend all its petty ministrations into every nook and cranny of a citizen's existence.

MissAnthropy...I'm with ya. I'm not feeling very festive today either.

Many years ago I got to spend a 4th of July in the US. It was an incredible experience to share in the celebration in a country where I have more rights as a foreigner than I do in my own country.

God bless the United States of America -- and return it to sanity and stable government in November!

Happy July 4th to all of SDA's American readers! Keep the faith, hang in there, and pray ...

happy 4th of july to my american friends

as I'v only visited 40 of the states, I should visit the other 17 before the Zero looses in november:-)))

We may disagree the odd time but Americans are still the best damned neighbors in the world. Happy july 4th.

I believe in America. And I'm not talking about that schmuck at the beginning of The Godfather. America is the greatest nation in the history of the world; Confusion to her Enemies. Happy birthday.

In Canada flying Stars & Stripes (dual C). Lived 22 years in Cherry Hill, NJ. commuted to NYC..

This is a very sad day for me.. The SCOTUS betrayed the Constitution and are now just like every other cheap NJ crime family. Jersey Shore (TV show) could use that worthless black robe to pimp for Snookie & company

To our American friends, Happy Independence Day! May future years restore the USA to its traditional values and glory.

I hope all my American friends have a glorious Fourth..

.. and maybe enjoy a fifth while they're at it!

MissAnthropy - If everyone sane person volunteers for Romney, works hard, and votes, Obama will be beaten in Nov. The Democrats' biggest weapon is persuading Republicans their cause is hopeless.

From Abraham Lincoln:

"It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

Such were the sentiments from such people who understood duty and sacrifice.

How the White House has changed (though one hopes not for long)....

Thanks Osumashi for reprising the words of Abraham Lincoln from the Gettysburg address. At the time when Lincoln gave that short speech, there were other speakers that day for the battlefield dedication. The press was strongly of the opinion that Lincoln's speech was too short for such a momentous occasion. Our press; always unmoved and unbowed, and always getting it wrong.

Reclaim the Constitution and individual civil rights - support Ron Paul this Fall.
