Yep, it was still the 3rd in HI, just earlier in the day
.
The international date line is still west of HI.
Now if he was posting from AUS, that would be a different story, but then why would he have cared about the 4th of July as a holiday, it would just be 4-JUL-09 to him.

Has anyone seen the thing about the founding fathers thats been playing on history? good stuff a little consperecy* but think about what they were doing. its amazing what if all the right wing, small government types told Mr. Obama that we dont want to double our national debt in one quarter, we dont want to wait in line for 5 hrs to get a check up from a Dr. and that we dont want to give up our assault rifles, pistols, or pay a stupid tax on bullets. I remember something from school were a group tried something like this in the mid 1800's

Happy Independence Day. Whos flyin a flag from their truck today?
anywho, me, my dad, grandparents, and aunt went up to a Tea Party this morning. there were 5 speakers and it was around 2 hours. One was an ex marine (14 yrs of service) and he was great to listen to. The last guy to talk was like 70 years old and he was almost impossible to understand, but he did have some great stuff to talk about. Something about how his house was raided by the IRS and a gun was put in his wifes face. It is now illegal for him to talk about taxing (yea, he'll get put in jail for talking about something). So I ask, wheres the first amendment? Just gives you an idea of the ****ed up stuff that hapens that you don't hear about.
I also heard someone has tried passing a bill that could give Kind Obama I the ability to run 3 terms.

One thing that I realized this Independence Day is that our freedom seems that much more valuable when we, bit by bit, lose it.
