It would appear that if you are a real war hero, as is Jeremiah Denton, you may not be invited to speak at a July 4th celebration in Sacramento, the capital of California. If, in fact, there is a July 4th celebration in the Capital.

In each of the 4 years that I have been a member of the state Assembly, we have had many "celebrations" on the Assembly floor. These "celebrations" are orchestrated by the Democrats who control the House and often involve singing and dancing. Every one of my 4 years have seen substantial celebrations of Cinco de Mayo (Commemorates the Mexican victory over the French at the Battle of Puebla), St. Patrick's Day (for the patron Saint of Ireland) and Chinese New Year's Day, among others. But never once have we celebrated America's Independence Day, the 4th of July |
See the story HERE. As a note, no reference at all on this story appeared in the San Jose Mercury News or in the Sacramento Bee.
If true, the story is shameful. I am so glad that I no longer live in the PRC (People's Republic of California).
