“But it doesn’t excuse the conduct at Fort Hood etc..”
Well said. Personally, I think the vast majority of FReepers were glad that justice was served; however, this is one feather. One feather doesn’t excuse all of the wrongs done to our economy, our rights, our Nation as a whole. We are not naive. In fact, I personally believe most FReepers are anything but naive. We don’t see one event in singular terms. How can we? The media was giving credit NOT to the military but Obama. Obama was taking full credit as well. Does he ever use the word “we” or does he only use the word “I”? This morning, what do we face? Well, rising gas prices, an illegal immigration issue, high unemployment rates, rising food prices, foreclosures, etc... I will salute our Military like I always do and pray for their safety. However, I will not applaud/salute/praise Obama for one second.
Amen, sister.
You said it better than I ever could.
