John Philip Sousa’s, “ Honored Dead”

So much to be proud this Independence Day, the American Cemeteries are getting fuller with the Military dead.

Then, Mr. Bush standing behind Olmert to exterminate the Palestinian people.

Continuous, murder’s of countless number’s of other people all over the world, like Afghanistan and Iraq.

America becoming more like a Police State by the day.

Poverty among American’s is growing, along with dissatisfaction.

Have a lot to be proud, this fourth of July?
