As we prepare to celebrate the independence and formation of our country this year on the 4th of July it is very important to myself and others who have fought for it to remind others of how blessed and fortunate we are to be Americans.
It has become fashionable to equate the French and American Revolutions, but they share absolutely nothing beyond the word “revolution.”

One of the most disturbing innovations of the Obama era is partisan talking points issued by the government for use at family gatherings.
