'Mericans, are you getting all patriotic in lieu of the upcoming holiday?

What are you doing to get all pumped up to encourage that feeling?

I'm going to listen to patriotic songs.

  • Gonna wear my American flag bathing suit at the beach at Lake Tahoe. Should be beautiful and sunny there on the 4th. Last year it was pouring rain!

    Hah thanks. I'll be at the beach by this time next week anyways.

    Tahoe sounds like a lot of fun. Is there a big party scene where you go?

    When I was young, I served this great country while the libs sucked up the dole for college grant money so they could "study" useless subjects and affiliate with various anti-American causes.

    Through later life, I continued to have pride in that service. I also continued to work, pay taxes, and bear the load for the entitled libs as well as for myself.

    I do not need the "patriotic songs" or any other superficialities, or to do anything to get all pumped up about love of country. I simply live it in the things I do, and have done so all my days.

    Good old remembrance of the brave souls that gave us our freedom, our constitution, and declaration of independence. Do progressive libs celebrate this holiday? I mean they're against most everything our forefathers fought for.

  • What do you mean, Q?

    Because it's great, to be patriotic and celebrate your country. Just because the country is been led by these people, it doesn't mean that it principles are sound. You don't think so, my friend?

  • There can be. We usually end up going to the beach in South Lake Tahoe that's closest to the Nevada border, where the casinos are (there is a nightclub in one of them). So it can be cracking there :) There are always a lot of people on the beach if the weather's nice too.

    @DTT, and now you are enjoying the fruits of the Mexican laborers, who literally pick fruits and vegetables, and the country farmed by black slaves, and all the immigrants that came over from Europe illegally, because the land belonged to Native Americans. Now they are all, or most of them, in reservations.

    And all the Chinese and Mexicans who built the railroads in the U.S.

    Besides, conservatives aren't the only ones who have served in the military. If they were, we would have lost this country by now!And if you paid your share of Taxes, we could have free tuition at state colleges and universities, plus healthcare for everybody by now.

    Show me the results of what Republicans have done without everybody else!

    As for music, you have to have a soul to enjoy it.
