Today's AmeriTids Issue 4,424
HB USA!
Yesterday I wrote
about Samuel Johnson, the British academic and lexicographer who was the leader
of the Anti-Pun Movement. I said that that squelching of puns was reason enough
to go to war against Britain. Today I read in the local big paper editorial
that Johnson also said: “(Americans) should be thankful for anything we give
them short of Hanging. They are a treasonous group...,” the Brit opined.
Another member of Parliament
said, putting down the rebels would be easy, and that Americans were of a “Pusillanimous disposition, utterly incapable of any
sort of order or discipline.” They would never dare face a British army.”
They didn’t know America
then, and many don’t understand America today.
Well executed words abound today,
and many of them are against the very foundations of our great American experiment.
We should never be mired by intellectualized pomposity, nor led astray by
charismatic temptations; any that would cloud the common sense of the people
who feel, live and understand the freedoms, those all, of every demographic
value. We are America, individuals sustained by principles of goodness, fairness
and achieving. We have and will stand strong against the disruptors. Little did
the British know about the heart of the men and women who understood the flaws
of tyrannical governments, of the king, by the king, for the king. Those who
saw the new light and made it shine. And little do many know of the resolve that
resides in the soul of the United States.
Enjoy a hotdog,
hug a friend, laugh out loud, and breath in the open air of truth.
Happy Fourth
of July, E-v-e-r-y-b-o-d-y!!
