I've been trying to come up with the perfect Fourth of July post, one that touches that perfect chord of reflection, anger, and hope. I don't need to talk about the bittersweetness of this holiday, or the mixed feelings it inspires. For now I will just say that a year from now, when we have managed to rally the Party and select the candidate and raise the money, I hope to find again a sense of patriotism, one not tainted by jingoism or shame. So, here's to next year when we will be on our way to taking our country back.

In the meantime knowledge is power.
