Happy 4th of July

HeavyHanded wants to take this opportunity to wish everyone a happy and safe 4th of July. I want to also give a big thanks to our veterans of all branches of our armed forces for their service to our country, and of course to all those presently serving in our military wherever they may be.

I am in awe of your dedication and sacrifices, as well as the sacrifices of your families.




My nephew spent one year in Iraq and came back in March safe and sound. Last Thursday night I made a trip to Keegan's Bar to meet up with some fellow Minnesota bloggers. Fellow blogger Leo of Psycmeistr's Ice Palace was there. His 19 year old son was deployed recently to Iraq; so Leo, I want you to know my thoughts and prayers are with you and your son.

As we celebrate Independence day, let us not forget the sacrifices that have been made by so many all the way back to our struggles to gain our indepedence from England. In today's war against Islamofascism, I marvel at how so many people on the left do not see the evil we are fighting and the dangers of ignoring it. It should be the one thing that cuts across political lines and something we can all be united upon. Sadly, we are not.

It brings to mind what Benjamin Franklin said at the signing of the Declaration of Independence: "We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately."
