Here is a thread to discuss whatever you want on this fabulous pre 4th of July (Independence Day) open thread. I will stop by here and there to say hello!

Here’s a funny video mocking Caligula!

Update: I made a title change to something Kirly brought up. The 4th of  July is just a date, what is celebrated is Independence Day.

(Title Update: Kirly)

Update II: It’s Taco Tuesday.

    Well, I have a couple of partners and we build amateur dragsters, if that’s what you mean. My love of really fast cars stated way back in the late 70′s when I bought my first 1965 Chevy Nova II 2 Dr, 327 (335hp) with a Muncy 4 speed and 4/11 gears. Been climbing that ladder now for over 30 years.

    Honestly most stupid thing I’ve read today..(yet the day isn’t over yet).

    Liberal Teacher Group Fireworks Equal “Pretend War”…

    PORTLAND, Ore. (EAG News) — To some people, nothing is sacred. Not even Fourth of July fireworks.

    Fireworks have been a staple of Independence Day celebrations since the earliest years of the republic. The tradition dates back to July 3, 1776, when John Adams wrote a letter to his wife, suggesting that that America’s birthday “ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more.”

    But now the progressives are trying to revise that history, too.

    Bill Bigelow of the radical teacher organization Rethinking Schools, wrote that we need to “rethink” the 4th of July. This “progressive” teacher has declared war on fireworks.

    The Fourth of July “. . . provides cover for people to blow off fireworks that terrify young children and animals, and that turn the air thick with smoke and errant projectiles. Last year, the fire department here [Portland, OR] reported 172 fires sparked by toy missiles, defective firecrackers, and other items of explosive revelry.”

    So Bigelow is concerned about public safety. Fair enough. But there’s more:

    “Apart from the noise pollution, air pollution, and flying debris pollution, there is something profoundly inappropriate about blowing off fireworks at a time when the United States is waging war with real fireworks around the world. To cite just one example, the Bureau of Investigative Journalism in London found recently that U.S. drone strikes in Pakistan alone have killed more than 200 people, including at least 60 children. And, of course, the U.S. war in Afghanistan drags on and on. The pretend war of celebratory fireworks thus becomes part of a propaganda campaign that inures us — especially the children among us — to the real wars half a world away.”

    @ Lily:
    Nope…this is just as bad….

    AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka has a 4th of July-themed column in the Huffington Post musing on the word freedom and how it is interpreted by the Republican Party. His conclusion is that they use the word to con people.

    Let’s call this right-wing “freedom” catch phrase what it really is: a grossly political strategy to dupe the public, which holds the word “freedom” as something sacred.

    According to Trumka, giving people or groups complete discretion in how they conduct their affairs is a bad idea because they might make the wrong decision. That is, they might decide to do something that Trumka thinks is a bad idea, such as opting out of Social Security.

    @WZ Sorry Trumka you big fat pig but yes, I do hold my freedom as sacred.

    Too late -- I’ve been here for two weeks. The police riots are over, and the other thing died down as well.

    Now as to tacos, I’ve never had one in CA, but I’ve eaten a few here and there in Mexico, and I heard Mexicans know something about tacos…

    You ever see what passes for a Taco outside of California? They don’t have a clue what a real Taco is.

    I live close to Texas …. so what is a real taco in California?

    A real Taco has a soft cornmeal tortilla (6 to 8 inch in diameter), shredded beef, pork or fish, at least 3 types of bell pepper, two types of hot pepper, onions, garlic, tomatoes (green and red), cilantro, lime juice and ground up dried red pepper.

    The Second Day of July 1776, will be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America.e

    I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more.

    No… They were Called Las Californias, which just happened to be the largest provinces in Nueva España.

    Because the later 19th-century Mexican territory of Alta California is considered to include Nevada, Arizona, Utah and parts of Colorado and Wyoming, these are often retroactively considered to be part of the original Californias in popular thought.

    That is what you said.

    what’s over blown is the speed and intensity that opiates degrade the liver…certainly if you have pre-existing liver problems, this does not apply…the liver is a robust organ that take a lot of abuse…telling an otherwise healthy person that too many opiates will damage the liver is a subject docs don’t want to pursue because the fact speak other wise…I’ve been addicted 4 times in my life and my liver is fine…it depends, but to deny relief to a healthy patient because of some bogus stats is cruel….pump em full of morphine, they’ll survive

    I’ve been a landman in Texas for about 32 years, so yes, I’m interested. Interesting note about Texas. The state ownership of seabed (and underlying minerals) extends 10 miles out from the shore. All other coastal states’ ownership of seabeds extends only 3 miles. This is a result of the terms by which the sovereign Republic of Texas entered the Union.

    The Texas claim to its maritime boundary was established when Texas was annexed to the Union. Texas’ claim to that extended boundary was upheld in 1960 under the SCOTUS case of the U.S.A v Louisiana.

    I’ve been a landman in Texas for about 32 years, so yes, I’m interested. Interesting note about Texas. The state ownership of seabed (and underlying minerals) extends 10 miles out from the shore. All other coastal states’ ownership of seabeds extends only 3 miles. This is a result of the terms by which the sovereign Republic of Texas entered the Union.

    Not…

    When Texas came into the Union, she ceased to be an independent nation. She then became a sister State on an ‘equal footing’ with all the other States. That act concededly entailed a relinquishment of some of her sovereignty. The United States then took her place as respects foreign commerce, the waging of war, the making of treaties, defense of the shores, and the like. In external affairs the United States became the sole and exclusive spokesman for the Nation. We hold that as an incident to the transfer of that sovereignty any claim that Texas may have had to the marginal sea was relinquished to the United States.’ Id., at 717—718, 70 S.Ct., at 923.

    One of the charities under scrutiny is the Disabled Veterans National Foundation or DVNF. CNN’s Drew Griffin discovered there is no sign any of DVNF’s cash donations of about $56 million over three years went directly to veterans. Not one dime. Due to CNN’s reporting, the Senate Finance Committee is demanding answers from DVNF. The committee is requesting records relating to their fundraising and marketing activities to see if the foundation abused its tax-exempt non-profit status.

    Drew tried to get a response from the president of the group, but she slammed a door in his face.

    56MM is a lot to laundry unless you have some high powered help… Hmmm 3 years did you say? Could it be? Naaaah I am sure it’s just a coincidence.

    Janet Incompetano said that it would be OK if the forces defending her home state of Arizona would run, hide and throw bean bags when confronted by shooters. When she’s out of a job in January, they shouldn’t let her back in the state.

    Barack Obama blocked from Martha Vineyard retreat after sale to Norman Foster

    … Baron Foster and Lady Foster of Thames Bank have bought the 30-acre estate for £14.3 million — and they appear to be in no mood for renting it out to the world’s most powerful family. …
