Does he really care........?

Today, November 11, 2012, is Veteran's Day. A day when we reflect on this nation's wars and honor those who have fought those wars to insure the freedoms we have today, especially those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice to preserve those freedoms. It's a day of parades and speeches, a day the President travels from the White House to Arlington National Cemetery to lay a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, a somber ceremony honoring those who died in war without identity and never returned home. President's have paid homage to these honored war dead every year that I can remember.....but not this year!
President Obama, after the embarrassment handed him in last week's mid-term elections, felt the need to run and hide in some far away land. Thus, he spent this Veteran's Day in Indonesia honoring the veterans of that country on its Heroes Day.
As a veteran, I respect the President as Commander-in-Chief, regardless of political affiliation. But for the President to ignore our veterans on Veterans Day, I find it to be immoral and disgusting. One has to wonder, does he really care.....and what would President Bush have done??

Twas' The Night Before..........

.......the mid-terms and all through the land the Democrats were nervous, heads stuck in the sand. Obama, in the White House, his presidency in doubt, the Republicans enroute to an election day rout......
The President campaigned two years ago on the theme of Change. Well, he got his wish. And the sad part is he won't change his ways, despite the mandate the voters are giving the Republicans. He will try to continue on his course of socializing the country and bankrupting it along the way. We can only hope the next two years go as fast as the last two for this one term president.
And finally the train wreck that is the Pelosi-Reid radical far left agenda has come to an end.
The Republicans cannot rest on their laurels. They must now put into play the mandate handed them...undo the debacle known as Obamacare, extend the Bush tax cuts, roll back spending, cut the size of government (getting rid of the joke known as the Department of Education would be a nice start) force Obama to seal the borders and take away his ability to threaten small businesses with stupid regulations and tax hikes that is keeping the employment rate at near 10%. In other words, stop the insanity that is Barack Obama!!!
Congratulations to the American Voter...for finally waking up!!
