Bring the Noise

Well, it's that time of year again.

Independence Day is the day we celebrate our Declaration of Independence. It's a day on which we should indeed cheer, shout and fondly remember the "shot heard 'round the world". Break out out those grills and cook up hamburgers and hot dogs to your heart's content.

Of course many in our fair nation view as just another day off work (or a extra long weekend this year) and probably fail to realize the sacrifices made by our Founding Fathers. Everyone whose name was on that Declaration of Indpendence was a traitor and faced a punishment of death. Would current members of Congress have the courage to sign their own death warrant in the name of liberty? Would Cynthia McKinney be the first in line to help guarantee your freedom? Would former Exalted Cyclops Robert Byrd face the hangman's noose? Something tells me these people would do nothing that was not a direct benefit to themselves.

How far would you go to preserve liberty?
