True patriotism hates injustice in its own land more than anywhere else.

Democracy is the government of the people, by the people, for the people.

Let's enjoy one of the last Independence Days before our complete dependence on China.

Let us remember as we fall asleep this Independence Day those who fight and the many that have died to protect our freedom.
