House Votes Against Bailout
I assume that most people have heard by now that the bailout was sunk by the Republicans in the House of Representatives yesterday. It pretty much came down to the last few minutes of the votes that we got to see liberty actually getting a victory. I just find it funny that a majority of Democrats supported a dangerous plan that was supported by Bush and his cronies. Just more proof that Dems and Reps are no different.
Happy Fourth
This post is going to be a short one. Today is a glorious day. It's the day we get to celebrate our fore fathers taking a stand against the tyranny of the British government in the 18th century. Today marks the day that most of the colonies signed the Declaration of Independence, written by Thomas Jefferson, to signify the colonies' desire to break free. Today is not only a celebration of our nation's birth. It is also to celebrate liberty. Liberty is what the colonies fought for, and we are forever indebted to their sacrifices. They saw it was worth dying for, and I fear that Americans have lost that spirit. Perhaps this day can spark a fire under their asses. One can only pray. Anyway, Happy Independence Day!
