I left the country. Do you like that tired old political cliché? I did not leave the party, the party left me. Well, I am just kidding because I only left the country to visit my Grandbabies that are a short 14 hour plane ride past Atlanta. America is my country. Unlike the Hollywood nitwits who all threaten to abandon America whenever someone other than the most unqualified and liberal candidate in the nation’s history is elected president, I will only abandon America for whatever follows this mortal life. Before, however, it was the Democrats and now it is the Republicans who have left me.

I congratulate my country for another peaceful change of leadership. It is the signature of the freest nation on earth – the freest for now. I congratulate President-elect Barack Hussein Obama. Unlike the unhinged left, there will be no personal disparagement of the President from here. It is however, open season on his wrong-headed ideas, policies and approaches to governing. The treatment of President Bush from the Democrats in Congress, liberals in general and the news media in particular has been disgraceful, period. The Office of the President of the United States and the person holding the offices deserves treatment with dignity. We do not have to like them, trust them or believe what they say, but we can challenge all of that in a dignified manner.

Now what was it the left said was a very high form of patriotism...Dissent?

"We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. When the loyal opposition dies, I think the soul of America dies with it. ."
(Edward R. Murrow)

Good ol' Edward sat on the top of England's roofs reporting on Germany's bombardments...and through investigative reporting brought down Joseph McCarthy...

I'm sure there is an Edward Murrow out there these days? If so he/she might have a great deal of...fun.

Someone will probably need to take his back though.

Hey...we're not done yet...check our pulse.

By the way, on this November 10th, of 2008, Happy 233rd Birthday USMC!
