But, frankly, you look kind of like the world’s biggest jerk when you get all contrary and start in on your temper tantrums about how “there ain’t nuttin’ to celebrate” or “America makes Baby Thomas Jefferson cry”. It’s the 4th of July. This holiday is about honouring the good. We have 364 days to bitch and moan about what’s wrong with America. Can’t you take one bleeding day to at least let the rest of us celebrate what’s RIGHT?

I understand. I had my usual moment of gratitute last night, that I could safely sit outside in my yard, watch fireworks and not have any fear for all the other things those explosions, pops and sounds represent in other countries at this point. At no point did I have the urge to duck and cover because that Chinese Screamer sounds like incoming mortar fire or that the jumping jacks sounded like small arms fire. It is still a great blessing that we can take our total security for granted in America no matter what else is going on with our government.
