I pray, in times like these, that heart strings will feel a tug, and people will be inspired to stop, clear their heads of all the media mess, and propaganda we are all being force-fed, and remember all the true sacrifice that has been made by so many before us. I pray that people will be moved from this apparent catatonic state we are in as a nation, back to reality, and band together to put a stop to the insanity that is being crammed down our throats. Sincerely, I do not mean to be crass, and spoil the celebration of this great nation. But we are dangeroulsy close to losing so much freedom, as we approach our Independence Day holiday, for times worse than ever. We are being persecuted from within, by our own representatives. Too many people think that freedom has to do with expression, and fashion, and art, and how many times they should be allowed to marry and divorce, or be allowed to just act like a fool in public. For some reason, people today are so busy trying to be "themselves", acting like children who have yet to learn the difference between right and wrong, that they have lost all sight as to what freedom really means, therefore; they are totally ignorant of what impact the lack of freedom will do to their spoiled existences. Wake up, people. The 4th of July is not about what will be on your table this weekend, or how you can alter the traditional meal, and cut your caloric intake in half, as was highlighted on The Early Show, this morning. God, bless America, and please protect us from ourselves, and the enemies, within.
