[R-390] July 4th Independence Day

[scott]

Thanks Al.  And let us not forget that we are at war
on this 226th independence day.   War that has come to our
shores just as the redcoats did to fight us "colonial savages"
 226 years ago.  Our new enemy is an off the wall band of
Islamic wackos without borders across the globe.  We are also still in
dangerous idealogical battles with the remaining Communist nations and
central planners of the world.  So let's say a prayer for our soldiers and
may victory be ours, as it was for our forefathers.  God bless America!!!
I have included a compilation of quotes that are so relevant this 4th of
July.  Enjoy.

"Independence Forever." --John Adams, toast for the 50th Anniversary of the
Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1826
++ "No King but King Jesus!" --Motto of the American Revolutionary War ++
"We have it in our power to begin the world over again." --Thomas Paine
++ "Our unalterable resolution would be to be free. They have attempted to
subdue us by force, but God be praised! in vain. Their arts may be more
dangerous then their arms. Let us then renounce all treaty with them upon
any score but that of total separation, and under God trust our cause to our
swords." --Samuel Adams
 ++ "If we wish to be free; if we mean to preserve inviolate those
inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending; if we mean
not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long
engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the
glorious object of our contest shall be obtained -- we must fight! I repeat
it, sir, we must fight! An appeal to arms, and to the God of hosts, is all
that is left us." --Patrick Henry
++ "...[T]he flames kindled on the 4 of July 1776, have spread over too much
of the globe to be extinguished by the feeble engines of despotism; on the
contrary, they will consume these engines and all who work them." --Thomas
Jefferson
 ++ "The American war is over; but this far from being the case with the
American revolution. On the contrary, nothing but the first act of the drama
is closed. It remains yet to establish and perfect our new forms of
government, and to prepare the principles, morals, and manners of our
citizens for these forms of government after they are established and
brought to perfection." --Benjamin Rush
++ "Is it not that the Declaration of Independence first organized the
social compact on the foundation of the Redeemer's mission upon earth? That
it laid the cornerstone of human government upon the first precepts of
Christianity?" --John Quincy Adams
++ "...[T]he Declaration of Independence is the ring-bolt to the chain of
your nation's destiny.... The principles contained in that instrument are
saving principles. Stand by those principles, be true to them on all
occasions, in all places, against all foes, and at whatever
cost." --Frederick Douglass
++ "...[W]e live in a great and free country only because our forefathers
were willing to wage war rather than accept the peace that spells
destruction." --Teddy Roosevelt
