Happy Independence Day!

Today I was planning on writing this whole long blog about how I love my country and how much things have been changing of late for the worse at home and abroad.  However, I received an email from the USN Master Chief of my clan that sums it up pretty well.  It touches on a great many points that we need to think about on this day of celebration.  Please take a moment and read the posting on the Thomas More Law Center Blog that I have placed here. It is entitled “Happy Independence Day!” Just give it a click and you will open a new window where the posting will come up for you to read.  Thank you. 

I would just like to add a few sentiments of my own, even though they are so eloquently expressed by both Father Dennis Edward O’Brien of the United States Marine Corps and Richard Thompson of the Thomas More Law Center. 

We need to remember to be thankful for the freedoms we have today.  To give quiet thanks to our Brave Forefathers for obtaining these freedoms and to say a prayer for our Heroic Military men and women who are ensuring that we can enjoy our freedoms still today.  And if you happen upon a Veteran or Active Member of Our Armed Services, whether it be Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, Merchant Marines, National Guard or a Reservist, take the time to stop and thank that person for putting themselves in harms way for you and your family and for protecting our liberties and glorious nation both here and abroad.  Give them the recognition and kindnesses that they deserve!

1. It would seem, these days, that there are very few people who share your patriotic views - I stand with you. It saddens me greatly to see just how far down people are willing to go, forgetting that we STILL have the best INDEPENDENT government in the world. Yes, that is MY opinion, but it was also shared by our forefathers and many who have served and are serving, in our military. I AM proud to be an American, living in freedoms that I did not earn, personally, who also did not put MY life on the line for. God BLESS American-Land of the FREE!
