Celebrates Independence Day ... no?

Happy Independence Day!

A Small Poll

At an Independence Day party yesterday I asked the following two questions to a group of nine mostly Democrats and a few Independents. Here are the revealing results:

- Who would like to eliminate ICE?   Zero hands raised

- Who would like to have open borders?  One hand raised (but he clarified that this meant everywhere in the world)

Hmm ...  if these were the results in very liberal suburban Massachusetts, what does this suggest might be the outcome of November's midterm elections? (Unless, of course, the blue-staters do a U-turn between now and then? Nah ... the Dems likely will go further left ...)

Independence Day

I know, I know that these on-the-street interviews showing how historically stupid millennials and gen X-ears are ... are getting to be old hat. Nevertheless here is another instance in San Diego of just how clueless some of these slope-heads are ... see: Infowars Video.

There might have been a few right answers edited out of this clip, but the fact that an Italian tourist knew more about the founding of the United States than did the vast majority of our natives does indicate that the huge sums of money we are spending to educate our children is mostly going down a rat hole. I think the interviewer hit the nail on the head when he told one dolt that, because of her lack of patriotic knowledge, she wasn't allowed to celebrate Independence Day!

Wake up America!

Happy 4th of July
