Quagmire?

As we celebrate the 4th of July my thoughts go back to our founding fathers and the sacrifices they made for the country and freedoms we know today. I also can't help think about the events going on today like Brian Williams calling our forefathers like George Washington a terrorist.

The American Revolution began on April 19, 1975 with the shot heard around the world. The war continued for 8 years until the Treaty of Paris was signed in September 1983. There were 4400 deaths and 6100 wounded.

I'm sure the Main Stream Media of today would also consider this a Quagmire and would they have called this George Washington's Vietnam?

I am greatful that the founding fathers had the conviction to stick with what that knew was right and that was the pursuit of freedom, independence and democracy.
