On Independence Day, 2008
Well, we have many fires burning in The Golden State today, and many fireworks shows have been cancelled due to the high danger of new fires, but the celebration of American goes on with parades, picnics, cookouts and other fun. I'd like to wish each of you a Happy 4th of July. A special high-five and a tip of the old Stetson hat goes to those in military service, their families, and to the personnel and families of those working in law enforcement and in fire and rescue. These folks put their lives on the line every day so that the rest of us can enjoy our country's bounty even more. Independence Day is not only about independence, but about the dependence we have on one another as we share this great country's burdens and riches.
