Is the Spirit of ‘76 dead?
Liberty For All
by R. Lee Wrights
As the most-high holy day for patriotic freedom lovers across the country draws nigh, I find myself wondering whether or not the spirit of 1776 has succumbed to indifference. Has the revolutionary fire that once burned hot in the heart of Americans been reduced to a smoldering ember? Have we lost the necessary desire to question authority that forever perpetuates individual freedom? Have we become such poor caretakers that the tree of liberty now is wilted and sagging dangerously close to the ground? Please say it isn’t so... (written 07/02; posted 07/04/07)
