Independence Day

One of the great things about this country is that we can and often have corrected our mistakes. When we make enormous errors, we can correct our course. The change is often much slower than we'd like, and of course we'd rather not have made the mistakes in the first place. Being able to make the change and affirm the right is important, and I'm glad that our country can do it.

Our country has finally corrected the error of Roe v. Wade, an error that has had horrifying consequences for all of us. This moment marks a new moment of freedom from the errors of the past, and freedom from unwarranted usurpation by courts. We may have many mistakes and many quarrels ahead of us. I hope that we can take this moment to appreciate how wonderful being alive is, and how wonderful it is to be in a country where we can be free.

Happy Independence Day!
