Today, on July 4, our nation celebrates Independence Day -- when, 233 years ago, 56 Patriots signed their names to the Declaration of Independence, pledging "to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor." With the signing of the Declaration, they conceived a nation whose people would enjoy the blessings of liberty.
Americans enjoy more freedoms than in any other nation, and we still have the means to resist tyranny, whether it comes at us in redcoats, jackboots or from nattily-dressed lawyers with graying ponytails.
It's a great time to reflect on our heritage and join the resistance in any capacity we can. Attending a July 4th Tea Party would be a good start.
We wish you the best and hope you can spend time with family and friends in celebration of our God-given freedom, for those men and women with the foresight to protect our liberty in the law, and for those who have paid the ultimate price defending it.

Perhaps the most important lesson we should learn on every July 4th is that each generation must earn its own liberty.

Happy Independence Day to all. We will be attending the Tea Party Rally in Monterey, CA this afternoon.
