I’ll never forget that day , that night , as long as I live . It was still quite early here and I was at home watching Fox News and all of the sudden they break in and Obama comes on to announce to the nation and the world . I simply couldn’t believe it ! There had been a few advance hints in the preceding show , but the BIG NEWS was a shock . A happy shock ! I have this really BIG US flag on a 9 ft oak parade pole . I broke out that puppy and headed down to the nearest town , about 20 miles away and took up a position on the busiest street corner in town ( which ain’t saying much ) and stood there and vigorously worked that flag for an hour or two . It was well after dark by then and most drivers looked at me like I was insane . But a few drove by honking and fist pumping . They knew ! After a while I packed it up and went home and turned the tv back on . Turns out that 1000’s of people , all over the country were spontaneously turning out , including many in front of the White House . In my town I was the only one . I just want to thank Mr. Rob O’Neil for giving me that reason to go wave that U.S. flag . I will never forget . It was a great day/night for me .

Until tonight I never thought of how Seal Team 6 felt about this job...that they really thought it would be a suicide mission. That they hugged their brothers as they boarded the helicopters.....as they thought they stepped toward eternity. They took those steps for God and Country. Thank the Lord they remained safe. Yes I remember, like you, as the news reports came in. Disgustingly, I remember Obama standing in the White House trying to take credit for what a group of men did.....that he, Obama, could derive a political advantage for what others did. Over the next few days the mantra that "Obama had killed Osama bin Laden". It made me sick to hear the leftist say that.

Now, comes the real story. The story of men of valor. The story of selflessness for love of country. And I remember what Jesus said, "Greater love has no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friend." Well, thank God, Rob and the Seals, this time, did not have to lay down their lives, but they were willing to do just that. That is something Obama would never consider. It is truly a contrast of convictions. I have long considered Clinton, a party animal, with neither love nor hate for the country....just a glorified fraternity boy. But Obama hates this countries and its institutions. He may be in league with radical jihadists to destroy us. I have never felt this way about any other president in our history...perhaps misplaced priorities, but I never felt they hated this country until this president.

I hope we an find our way back home to a place of God, Family, and Country before we have gone too far.
