All right, readers, going with this one today, a more political roundup on Sunday, ok?
America 250 on July 4th. Anyone reading the real history knows it was probably just meant to happen. To American cousins, bros and sisses … celebrate, guys! (Pic American Museum & Gardens)

Congratulations America, and apologies to those American Service personnel I knew in West Berlin, where British squaddies told them that we also celebrate 4th July, commemorating the day we offloaded one of our colonies.
Happy birthday USA, you’ll soon be all growed up.😉
Happy Anniversary USA. One of the best things about today is knowing the misery it will inflict on the Left. Just think about all those millions of wasp-chewing phizogs, staring at the happiest of happy folk, of the former colonies? Heart warming to say the least. George Washington said on this day, 250 years-ago..
“The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them.
The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army—Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; this is all we can expect—We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die: Our own Country’s Honor, all call upon us for a vigorous and manly exertion, and if we now shamefully fail, we shall become infamous to the whole world.
Let us therefore rely upon the goodness of the Cause, and the aid of the supreme Being, in whose hands Victory is, to animate and encourage us to great and noble Actions—The Eyes of all our Countrymen are now upon us, and we shall have their blessings, and praises, if happily we are the instruments of saving them from the Tyranny meditated against them.
Let us therefore animate and encourage each other, and shew the whole world, that a Freeman contending for LIBERTY on his own ground is superior to any slavish mercenary on earth.”
