Happy Birthday to The United States of the Blues

[tinkerjack]

And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are of the gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with His wrath? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever. Thomas Jefferson

A bluesy fourth to you all, Jefferson was speaking of slavery, but even now there are those who would enslave us again.
