AMERICAN FREEDOM
Wow, 228 years old and still looking good. She doesn't show her age at all, does she? Why, I remember when she was 212 like it was only yesterday. Anyway, what ever you do today, have fun and stay safe. I think I'll close this post with the lyrics to my favorite song about my favorite country. Enjoy.
"If tomorrow all the things were gone I’d worked for all my life,
And I had to start again with just my children and my wife.
I’d thank my lucky stars to be living here today,
‘Cause the flag still stands for freedom and they can’t take that away.

And I’m proud to be an American where at least I know I’m free.
And I won’t forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.
And I’d gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today.
‘Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land God bless the U.S.A.

From the lakes of Minnesota, to the hills of Tennessee,
across the plains of Texas, from sea to shining sea,

From Detroit down to Houston and New York to LA,
Well, there’s pride in every American heart,
and it’s time to stand and say:

I’m proud to be an American where at least I know I’m free.
And I won’t forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.
And I’d gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today.
‘Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land God bless the U.S.A."
The Only Thing Necessary For Evil To Triumph
Is For Good Men To Do Nothing
