Paris Hilton and the Pursuit of Happiness
This coming week we will celebrate our nation’s independence, the gift of liberty and the soaring words from the founding that “all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
Many of us will heed the call to once again be dedicated to the great task remaining before us – “that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom – and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”
You probably know (who doesn’t?) that this past week our nation has been dedicated to the task of obsessing on Paris Hilton’s new found freedom from the tyranny of the LAPD and a new pursuit of happiness that she says will not include anymore DUI citations.
