Independence Day

Last year, I posted a birthday greeting and get-well letter or my country, which I flatter myself, may be worth rereading, since a demagogue who despises the Constitution is still president. There is also a piece at Reason remembering H.L. Mencken, and his fears that the American people would someday elect a genuine moron and a worse demagogue than Franklin Roosevelt, which has come to pass.

Come the evening of the Fourth, I hope to see and enjoy the fireworks, and to Tuonela with Dishonest Donald’s attempt to make our national day all about him.
