We have brave hero's who die for this country and they get a flag draped coffin and the family will get the flag along with a word of gratitude form a uniformed officer on behalf of a grateful nation.On the other hand you get a queer basketball player announcing he is gay and the president of the United States calls him personally to thank him for his 'courage' as a 'hero' ?
I hope I'm not the only one this bothers.
Trust me Duke, you're not.
ReplyDeleteThanks my friend, I knew there were others.
DeleteYou aren't the only one...and, it's sick.
ReplyDeleteStephen, I always rib on ya' but I know I can count on you.
DeleteIt bothers me too. We elevate all of these "professional" athletes to hero status and the true hero's are forgotten by all except a few. The way I understand about that basketball player is he was pretty much a bench warmer.
ReplyDeleteRobert, I don't know his name and wouldn't know it if I heard it. Just another nameless looser.
DeleteIn between what you just said and the latest for the pentagon to take prayer and any message of the Lord from the soldiers who want to participate and getting rid of Chaplains in the military....this country is done.
ReplyDeleteIt all makes me sick to my stomach....
Mamma Bear, It is looking more and more that way. Thanks.
DeleteThe whole world is upside down.
ReplyDeleteWilson, That is why I live in my own little world.....sometimes it's lonely.
DeleteIsn't this not the worst? It makes me sick too.
ReplyDeleteAmy, It is sick. Thanks.
DeleteThere are a whole lot of us out in the hinterlands who are bothered by this.
ReplyDeleteOTB MCPO sends...............
Anon, Glad to hear it. Thanks.
DeleteIt just flat pisses me off... Hero my ass...
ReplyDeleteOld NFO, More like zero, not hero
DeleteIn the case of the man-child who defiles the White House, it must take a zero to recognize another zero.
DeleteIf this president ever tried to recognize me for something I did, I would commit suicide in complete shame, since his value system is the antithesis of patriotism and morality.
Braden, I know where you are coming from my friend. Thanks.
DeleteYou are not alone in your disgust over this.
ReplyDeleteSenior, Thanks, how can any one who claims to be a proud American support this piece of trash.
DeleteDuke,
ReplyDeleteI'm mad and you don't want to get me started on this or other named incidents because this mama won't shut up.
Sandy, I hear ya' my friend. We need to speak out on stuff like this or some people start to think it's OK.
DeleteWell one is a bonified hero and the other is part of a protected demogaphic that heavily supports the president and his party...so guess who the campaigner in chief will support. Gotta keep the pillow biters happy, they donate money and you can't criticize them...if you do, you are a hater.
ReplyDeleteMrGarabaldi, you nailed it. It is flat out despicable that a so called president would put his gain ahead of common decency.
DeleteDuke I get down right angry over this BS MrGarabaldi has nailed it. Our country based on God is about over.
ReplyDeletegoslow, It ticks me off as well. Thanks.
