Compare and Contrast on the 4th of July


As you get ready to burn some dead animal on the grill, toss back some fermented barley from the cooler, and shoot off some non-military-grade ordinance (or watch some, at least), I would like to direct your attention to two articles. One is by a moron from the Philadelphia Inquirer who feels that there is no reason to celebrate this 4th of July, and the other is by one of the best essayists on the Right Side of the blogosphere.

Read those, say a prayer for those who are using the military-grade bangy stuff in the cause of freedom on the other side of the world, then dive in and celebrate the grand history of freedom in our country. The battles of where we're going can wait until another day.
