How funny!
I love things that make me laugh out loud!
And today is it even a cool morning here in Georgia, very unusual for this time of year!
Take care, Debra!

Marie Smith said...

How true is that last statement!

Martha said...

HAHAHA! These were great, Debra! Ick...that Ted Cruz..bleh

Martha said...

LOL, You are the best Debra!

Jennifer said...

Haha! "It's big, like my signature."

Travel said...

Great collection today, THANK YOU! Happy Treason day

Magaly Guerrero said...

The Duck-claration of Independence left me rolling.

Forsythia said...

Don't know which one I liked the most---maybe the "Duck-claration." Silliness preserves sanity.

Ur-spo said...

I was reading this morning an article reminding us the USA is an ongoing process to see if we can do the great experiement set up in 1776. It is a work in progress.

Happy 4th ... celebrate however you do ... can ... want to!!!

Bruce.desertrat said...

I cannot decide which is funnier: "Brexited before it was cool" or 'We're getting rid of U"!

great collection all around, Debra!

Frank said...

That "right to bear arms" thing has come back to haunt us. Talk about unintended consequences.

Mistress Maddie said...

These had me roaring!!!!!!!!!! The signature one and the duck especially! Thank you Debs!

I’ve always wondered if, had there been no American Revolution, would the United States have turned out like Canada. Not perfect, but SO much better.

Debra She Who Seeks said...

@ Moving with Mitchell -- The continuing British influence in Canada probably did have a very real effect on how Canada evolved. But Canada has also turned out the way it has because we have made a practice of regarding American history as a "cautionary tale" of how NOT to run a government or country. We watch the USA very closely.

Great collection. Chocolate sandwich biscuits, HA!

Parnassus said...

Hello Debra, Thanks for putting the Fourth in perspective!

Tundra Bunny said...

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! "Getting rid of u" -- ROFLMAO!

bobbie said...

Love them all, but especially the chocolate sandwich biscuits!

Miss Val's Creations said...

Love the duck! Some revisions to our Constitution would be very helpful. Particularly clarification for those lacking in brain cells.

Fitting for Americans
Coffee is on and stay safe

Janie Junebug said...

Thank you, Debra. I especially like the duck.

Love,
Janie

Unknown said...

All so funny. Loved them. PS Ted Cruz is a douchebag.

Kirk said...

I can't say I'm all that optimistic about the future of my country in the sense of it remaining a democracy (of course, with all those nukes and all, we'll remain a sovereign nation) but I did find these almost wistfully amusing.

Boud said...

Yes, we are definitely a work in progress! Doing my bit here. And cracking up at this post. Great stuff!

G. B. Miller said...

Love the John Hancock quip.

pam nash said...

Well - you have to admit - chocolate sandwich biscuit is a bit weird and a lot of words for a cookie!

e said...

Loved the duck and men in tights! And the rest, really.

I don't love this holiday, though, mostly because of idiots with fireworks. Also for more angsty reasons...

This N That said...

Great aas always..Love the Duck!!! HAve a good week!!!

Guillaume said...

"Getting rid of u" I'd hilarious. I once wrote "honor" in my very first essay in English, during my first year at uni in the UK. It was marked as a mistake. I wrote back to the lecturer to say that "honor" was also correct.

Lady M said...

Where did someone find a duck like that? Too funny.

Polly said...

ha, ha, all great.

Sixpence Notthewiser said...

Sadly, the founding Fathers *would* roll in their graves if they could. It's a shitshow here.
And that's right about the incredibly high-maintenance apparel they donned.

XOXO

Magic Love Crow said...

Great post Deb! LOL! Big Hugs!

Fundy Blue said...

You always find the good ones, Debra! I was laughing almost all the way through. The gun situation in the US is beyond insane, and I'm beginning to think that I could walk out the door and not return because of someone shooting me.

baili said...

haha

this one is sooo funny and made me laugh harder lol

thank you for making my day
yes liberty is always unfinished business sounds make sense

yellowdoggranny said...

I'm at the point I think we should just give us back to England.

Busy Bee Suz said...

These are hilarious! I really like the Giving back the U.

LL Cool Joe said...

Brexit was never cool!

Rommy said...

UGH, Ted Cruz. That guy is such a hypocrite. I feel sorry for my Texan friends who are stuck with that jerk.
