BEWARE! They dress July 4th up in shiny spangles, but that’s just to draw your attention. They give you a sparkler and say, “Wave this, and you shall be distracted.” They throw you a barbecue and invite all of your favorite people, so you won’t see the truth. They shoot gleaming grenades in the air for Christ’s sake, hoping it will keep from noticing. You’re so busy singing “Born in the U.S.A.” that they catch you unaware. But folks, I’m here to tell you – it’s all a diversion! You may not realize it, but the end is near. Remember Barry White?…
