Tonight after a lovely dinner at Applebee’s with our new friends, Erik & Megan Barker, Jess and I headed home in time for the State of the Union address by our President, George Bush.
I was very upset by the blatant disrespect the President received from much of the Democratic party during his speach.
At one point, the President said something to the effect of, “You did NOT approve my heath care reformation…” and was INSTANTLY bombarded by applause and cheers from the Democrat party representatives.
It was such an awkward moment of the address that I was confused how the President would continue on.
He did, however, and held his head high as he continued to speak.
I wonder how such severe disrespect is now tolerated for the world’s most powerful leader. No wonder terrorist dictators threaten us – they see our weaknesses in the blatant, public instances like tonight.
He’s our President – the Leader of our Country – not some politic-spinning athlete or celebrity. Treat him with respect Mr. & Mrs. Representative. For the good of our nation.
