P ATRIOTS who rebelled against the
E NGLISH and our Mad King George The Third
N OBODY wanted TEA to be TAXED
D ARE I SAY ? Most Presidents are MAD !

C OMPANIES and the KING went wild ~ The
E NGLISH defeated ~ INDEPENDENCE !
Thanks for visiting ~ I know it was much more complex than that !
4 JULY 1776 (241 YEARS AGO) is what you are celebrating ~ Love BRIAN
Because I was in America on 911 (2001) with my parents ~ we were made
Honorary Americans ~ because we shared your ANGST and AGONY. I was
disappointed that there were no INDEPENDENCE DAY Poems yesterday ~ so
I thought I had better post one today ~ comments welcome ! Because we
are a \"Nation of Tea Drinkers\" we always see the \"Boston Tea Party\" as a
factor in the American Revolution ! Nobody BRITISH throws TEA in the SEA !
