The Colonist where Brits.
We invented the Internet and gave you the language you mangle today. We invented the programmable electronic computer two years before you lot did. As for the Military, at one point a third of the World was ruled by Britannia!

As far as we're concerned, you're ALL rebels :lol:

Happy Traitors Day, you ungrateful Colonists!

I think I'll be cracking up at this post for considerable time to come. Great job.

The problem with the Great Rebellion as our British colleagues refer to it as is this - The King was German. Secondly, his great sin apparently dealt with trying to pull hard currency out of the most prosperous place on earth to support his wars all over. America apparently had the highest standard of living then? :lol:

To some degree the Brexit vote may be yet another Obama failure. He threatened the UK with trade sanctions should the vote to exit the EU succeed. Apparently he felt that the British people were not sufficiently intelligent to make this decision by themselves. Further, I suspect that his obvious contempt for the British voters may have shifted a not insignificant number of Undecided voters into the Brexit camp. The implicit message is that Britain did not want advice from a delusional narcissistic punk psychopathic man-child, laughing stock and failed racist clown.

Michael, that is great. You
captured it.
Here's for you $.

great read---Happy 4th to you, MIchael

And a Happy Fourth to you Mike.

The Unanimous Declaration of the
Thirteen United States of America

In Congress, July 4, 1776
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness; that, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world.

And for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.
