lol 4th of July..

another day were Americans think they're great, be patriotic, etc.

if you'll excuse me I have 4 beers in the fridge and I plan to get mildly drunk, brb.

Heaven forbid that we actually celebrate the day that our fore fathers decided we had enough of your tyrannical government's oppressive bullshit and ridiculous taxation. Just because you guys don't appreciate liberty doesn't mean that we have to stop appreciating it.

Perhaps, I'm not like most Americans, but I don't view this day to be "patriotic". I view this day to celebrate the principle of liberty and the nation that was founded on that principle. Granted, America has strayed away from that principle a bit, but the point remains the same.

Though, I do understand why you guys resent us. I mean, the colonists were a bunch of disorganized frontiersmen who hunted game and didn't know the first thing about war. Well, some of the commanders did (ie. Washington), but overall fairly ignorant to warfare. Yet we still beat your ass. Yes, the French did help, but only when we started to turn the tide of the war in our favor. Then, when you guys realized just how little help the French were in WWII, it was the U.S. (and Russia) that came to the rescue.

Plus, with the current administration and the arrogance the current foreign policy has would piss me off, as well. Hell, it DOES piss me off.


whoa.
