Patriotism

I wanted to be timely and post something about the 4th. Something that wouldn't be cynical ... because that's how this president makes me feel. And something that wouldn't be jingoistic ... like every bit of dimestore "git-r-done" patriotism that you see on a magnetic ribbon or bumper sticker. But I couldn't say it any better than one of the few good writers that our local paper, the Arizona Republic, has ... E.J. Montini:

Back when we celebrated the red, white and green

Have a great 4th of July and honor what this country is really about, not what some politician tells you is patriotic. For a reminder, check out Isabella's great post at:
