Dear Mr. Obama (awesome letter)......

Posted on 04/20/2009 8:41:42 AM PDT by Gopher Broke

April 20, 2009

The President of the United States

1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW

Washington, DC 20500

Dear Mr. President,

You don't speak for me.

When you go to Europe and say that Americans are "arrogant, dismissive and derisive" of our allies, you don't speak for me. When you pander to foreign leaders, presuming to speak on behalf of all Americans, apologizing for the actions of President Bush, you don't speak for me. When you desperately try to surrender to the French and the Germans, the Russians and the Saudis, and even our great friends in the U.K., just for the sake of maintaining your "Messiah" image, you don't speak for me.

You and your wife may not be proud of America, but I am, sir.

The Europeans seem to have forgotten who saved their collective asses in World War II, but I haven't. I haven't forgotten the tens of thousands of American fighting men who spilled their blood all across Europe to stop a murderous psychopath and his rampaging army. And I haven't forgotten the tens of thousands more who served in theater after that war, when the threat of Soviet advance through the Fulda Gap was ever present. I haven't forgotten, because I was there, for a time, anyway. I saw the obscenity of the Berlin Wall. I saw what happened to people who tried to escape communist Germany by climbing it, or trying to navigate the surrounding mine fields. I occasionally patrolled that border, mirroring Soviet or Czech patrols. And I remember watching on TV, crying as the wall was finally torn down.

I love Germany and England (France, not so much) and was ready to put my life on the line to defend them. So were the men I served with. Many Americans continue to serve across Europe in the military uniform of the United States, more willing, apparently, than many Europeans themselves, to preserve the freedom there that we have already paid for with our blood. I spent my money all over Europe, helping those economies flourish and grow, as did many other American servicemen and women who lived and served there. My only thanks was a very small paycheck, some wonderful memories and the knowledge that I was doing something worthwhile that I could be proud of for the rest of my life. I was, until today.

And then some pandering politician comes along and apologizes for all of that. You never served your country in military uniform, sir, so you wouldn't know how positively insulting that is. In fact, you've never done anything for this country but run for office. You won the election and still you're running a campaign instead of acting like the leader of our great nation. And I don't like it one bit. I want peace. I want it for my family, for my friends and for my country. I've earned it and will continue to do so until the day I die. I want peace with Russia and China, even Iran and North Korea, if it were somehow possible. I want there to be a free exchange of ideas and trade goods and tourism between all of our nations.

But the difference between you and I, sir, is that I would never sell out my country to gain their applause. Maybe you think you're earning their respect and admiration by being weak and apologetic, but I know better. The only thing you did was weaken my country. And I won't forget it.

I am proud of my country and not even the President of the United States can take that away from me.

Regards,

Theo L. Peebles

Who is this man, Theo Peebles?

Just another redneck, racist, tea-bagging homophobe. (If you ask Janeane Garofalo)

Yes, excellent letter.

Obama is clueless, duplicitous to ALL and hyper-partisan to the point of being a danger to our Nation.

In short, Obama is a fraud and a national disgrace. His self-serving interests know no limits.

- My deepest respect goes to Peebles and the many others who proudly served our nation in uniform as he did.

This man would never “pander” to those who disagree with his positions even if we had a 80+ percent margin against him.

He might pretend to tho. He's such a good faker. If he were an actor (which he is in a way) he'd be the male version of Meryl Streep.

Wonderful!!!!

Now if we can get all the Tea Party attendees(of all political persuasions) to write similar letters to “The Anointed One”, he might have no choice but to sit up and take notice!

0Bambi's formative learning years occurred in a foreign country. He was not taught about the history of this Country. He never dressed up as Paul Revere with a cowboy hat formed into a tri-corner for Halloween. The boy never had pride instilled, by his teachers and parents, in this Country.

As a teen and young adult he was the perfect person to be recruited by Leftists. I think the DHS should put out a white paper warning about this type of upbringing!

Ot, but of interest to birthers:

Is the Obama administration working on a forged long-form Birth Certificate as we speak?
by DefendUSx April 19, 2009 10:00
Hat-tip to Probie who gives this information:

Don’t know about 9/11 conspiracy, but do know from DC source that an Administration team is working on perfecting a forgery of the long-form birth certificate. They plan on presenting it in a a month or so. The source is FBI agent who has drinking buddy from University of Illinois now in the Administration. Its second hand, but the source is supposed to be solid.

They have already prepared the forgery with special paper and ink. The document was printed on a fully functional 1960 Heidelberger printing press located at a print museum in Toronto. Access was arranged by a trustee of the museum who is connected to a large Canadian banking/investment firm with major US interests.

The blanks in the forged form were filled in with an old Underwood Manual typewriter bought at an estate sale in Skokie, IL. The raised seal was the easiest piece to fake, since you can by a special order corporate seal from just about any online office supply store.

The only reason they haven’t rolled out the foregery yet is that it is “seasoning” under mild UV light and a back and forth rotation between between a humidifier and a sauna. Get ready....one to two months tops.
I also said they’d have to get a 1960s Printing Press, and indeed, by this information, looks like they found one.

The banking connection is disturbing too, gives more credibility to this also. The details here are solid.

This letter will no doubt be forwarded to DHS for the “Extremist” files...

Considering the Obamassiah was unaware of the Tea Parties, my guess would be somewhere between "none" and "are you kidding?"

Do you really believe he was unaware of the Tea Parties? He such a liar, why not lie about this too?

He is only a “good faker” to those who drink the coolaid - people who go through life with their eyes open won’t fall for his schtick.

Wait... Are you seriously suggesting the words of the Obamassiah may not be all that is Good and Light in the world?

HERETIC!

Thank you for this link. The replies to Mr. Peebles’ letter were pretty harsh. Most of them didn't appreciate it.

This is a nice web site. The manager(?) of the site keeps the posters’ answers civil. In response to the letter, one poster said, “Amen, Brother, Amen”. I say, “Ditto”.

A poster on the other site asked what were the chances of the president actually seeing this. Good question. What do you think the chances are?

The Obamasiah won’t “try” to fake out people - he has enough already “faked out” to keep him rolling in that direction - As long as the “Lemmings” in this country keep buying his lies he’ll keep spinning them - you can count on that.

I almost responded with the LOL but that would not have been appropriate in this case. I agree HE is a heretic and Un-American.
