Paper Tigers !

I have been receiving Emails from friends, relitives, and acquaintances that question the patriotism of President Obama. They say he keeps apologizing to our enemies. These emails are all centered on the premise of being a proud American while the President is not.
Sometimes I get sick of people and their dumb ideas. Normally I would never question another’s patriotism. I am reminded of people like Teddy Roosevelt who was very sick most of his life. The man could hardly even see because of his poor eyesight. He not only worked out and made himself stronger but served his country during a time of war. He was a half-blind sick man and yet he did his duty. The man even suffered from asthma. Now he was proud to be an American!
I think of JFK who suffered from Addison’s disease. He also had a very bad back and yet he still found time to do his duty and serve his country. Both Presidents were very rich men.
On a much less important note I myself suffered Polio at a young age and was forced to endure the pain of physical therapy for years. I could never really touch my toes due to my stiff back. I could touch about two inches beneath my knees.
During my draft physical I was pulled aside by a military Doctor. He told me I would have a very hard time in the Army and wanted to offer me a medical deferment. I told him to please hold off because I would join the USAF because most of their jobs were more technical and there was no need for any combat training. He said ok and sent me to an Air Force recruiter that contacted me at home. After a series of tests I was accepted in the field of Electronics. I did still have trouble in Basic Training trying to fake touching my toes. Thankfully there were 60 of us and I could bend my knees a little and fake it most of the time.
I only tell these stories because most of the Conservatives that are sending me this crap never spent a day in the service of their country. On air jerks like Rush Limblah blah, Sean Hannity, and others all had deferments for one reason or another.
For the record President Bush, Reagan, Bush, and Clinton all loved and were proud of their country. For the record President Obama is a proud American. This man is not a Socialist but more of a moderate. He has never done anything wrong while President. When we drop a bomb or kill civilians by accident an apology is sometimes needed. This speaks to the Character of the man not to any disloyalty to his country. For the record President Obama took over a country rub into the ground by the previous three Presidents and is doing the best he can. The opposition never, never gives him credit for anything and they lie about his record every day.
For the record President Bush did attack the wrong country and President Obama did select and approve the mission to finally kill O.B.L. Oh and yes my friends I am proud of my country. I just usually do not have to talk or send emails to others because I stood up and did my duty. The people who like to talk and accuse outers I say, unless you served shut your mouth when you are around me or I will be glad to shut it for you! That’s a fact Jack!
