All of us. Factory workers, executives, teachers, all of us. We who "dare" to question the people who are in power. We who march. We who say what we truly believe even if it means ridicule and scorn. We who do not blindly follow. We who don't blindly worship a piece of cloth just because we are told it is a must.
A true patriot believes in the inherent goodness of the country they are dwelling in. A true patriot wants things to be good for all of the citizens. By good, a patriot means health care for all, education for all, better pay for even the most menial of jobs, in short, everyone gets a chance at the now lost American Dream. So stand up on this Independence Day Holiday. Show your patriotism. Call for the removal of the criminals in office. Call for health care for all of our citizens. Demand accountability from the big oil and big pharma corporations, as well as others. Demand a withdrawal of our relatives and friends from the illegal occupation in Iraq.
Peace to you all, and have a happy Independence Day. Eat, drink, and be merry. And keep up the good fight.
