Why Should We Celebrate Father's Day Or Fore Father's Day?

We are coming up fast on Father's Day. It is not a national holiday justifying a day off or anything special, but it is a day you can say thanks to your fathers. I personally thank my father each day for being the man of responsibility he was and for instilling that trait in me and my two younger brothers, Ron and Mark, both of whom are great Americans. I am very flattered and proud to be reminded that I look like him and hope I am getting more like him each day. We are passing those sacred values to our peeps and grand peeps. They are also great Americans.

Hey, by the way, a really strong snugly hug, and a 'thanks for being my mentor and I love you' will be far more appreciated than neck wear. Yes, it is OK for the men and boys to hug their fathers if they are fortunate enough to still have one. If you don't, someday you may wish you had hugged him or shown him more love when you still had the chance.

I think we should also remember and honor our forefathers. This current obamanation that is being allowed to be pushed down the throats of the American people by obama, his sycophants and socialistic mentors (home grown terrorist, Professor Bill Ayers) is an insult to everything America has stood for as long as there has been a Pilgrim landing on our shores. The soldiers who have fought for liberty and freedom have not fought and some died to bow to the Saudi king or apologize to Chavez or any other banana republic dictatorship.

This nation was developed because of and under Judeo Christian principles and battles were fought to be able to worship the way we wanted to worship. That includes all religions, Islam, Buddist, snake handlers, etc. But, those religions should not diminish the religion of our founding fathers as is being done by the secularists with the help of the ACLU. This is still a "Christian Nation" in spite of what obama declares to Muslims in their Mosques. It is still a 'Christian Nation' inspite of what Brent Walker says. It is also noted that the obama's have not found a church in which they may worship regularly as he stated in at least one of the campaign rhetorical rote speeches written for him to say. He even threw his pastor of some 20 years 'under the bus.' He 'didn't listen to him' anyway.

It was recently reported that obama is not using two teleprompters as thought, one is a mirror! The required teleprompter kept blowing over by the gulf coast wind on the beaches so we didn't hear much from him or his script writers from the beach. He mostly doodled in the sand. Heck, he won't even meet with the BP CEO indoors.

In my opinion, obama did not want to be The President of the United States for the people, he just wanted to be 'the man,' as in 'yu da man.' He wants to have all of the trappings and honors and authorities afforded to the job, but he does not want the responsibilities. IMO, if he is not made dictator within two years, he may not run again.

He is rehashing the 'Health Care' debate and still trying to sell that piñata and whatever it may be full of. He is just digging up bones. When the November elections come around he wants people talking about the health care issues which will at that time still be the law of the land, he does not want to be known as the slick oil spill do-nothing president or, obama the oil slick.

He is now creating a diversion! He may be coming to grips with the fact that each candidate which asks him to campaign for them has lost. This country sorely misses Bill Clinton, (WOW!). Slick Willie was not hard enough on the people who would destroy us, but he kept most of his screwing of people in the back hallways or the bedroom. Not on national news on a daily basis telling us it is good for us! Obama is not seeming very Presidential when he does not know whose "ass to kick." He shouldn't be looking to kick or to kiss anyone's ass. He should be trying to solve the problem with thought, science and collaboration with knowledgeable people while maintaining his posture as the President of the United States of Ameriac.

In my attempt to be 'fair and balanced,' I want to say that I do not blame obama for the mess in the gulf. He has very little control over how things are constructed or under whose authority or when they might break down. Bush probably contributed to this spill as much as obama. The President has people in place to oversee all areas of responsibility and report to him. The President's responsibility is to exercise his authority, assist in solving the problem, and place the responsibility for prevention of this sort of catastrophe and fire with no life long pension plan the persons or many persons who were looking with a blind eye at the oil companies and their watch dogs.

I do not think it is a wise decision not to talk to the BP CEO nor not accept assistance from Denmark or Norway who know how to clean up that type of messy contamination. obama is being stubborn (why?) and he is allowing a bad situation to get worse by his lack of action or his delay (more troops) (why?) His administration will be remembered in November due their lack of action that could have been taken, not because of the fact that it happened.

For those of us who did not know, the Star Spangled Banner has four verses and does a few things that obama nor his elected or appointed people cannot or have not done. This musical composition honors our flag, bashes our enemies, Praises the "Power" and shows our 'trust in God.' Francis Scott Key was telling all who would listen that it was useless to try to overthrow a government or people who, and you can sing it like Kate Smith, Bocelli or rap it like "whatchamacallit," but any way at all, we win they lose as long as we maintain our principles for which it stands.

I also do not think it was a good statement to make to ban all deep water drilling or off shore drilling. Robert Gibbs will explain in the next day or so, 'what he meant---.' He will realize how many more people will be joining the unemployment rolls this close to re-election and he will renig on that dogmatic unthought out "stupid" remark. Just my opinion!

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn’s early light, What so proudly we hail’d at the twilight’s last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro’ the perilous fight, O’er the ramparts we watch’d, were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets’ red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof thro’ the night that our flag was still there. O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore dimly seen thro’ the mists of the deep, Where the foe’s haughty host in dread silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o’er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses? Now it catches the gleam of the morning’s first beam, In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream: ‘Tis the star-spangled banner: O, long may it wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion A home and a country should leave us no more? Their blood has wash’d out their foul footsteps’ pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave: And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

O, thus be it ever when freemen shall stand, Between their lov’d homes and the war’s desolation; Blest with vict’ry and peace, may the heav’n-rescued land Praise the Pow’r that hath made and preserv’d us a nation! Then conquer we must, when our cause is just, And this be our motto: “In God is our trust” And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Hey, God is up to something and we are a part of it.

Cause Joy!
