George W. Bush, OUR president!
I am so proud to be a citizen of this great country. Mr. Bush is doing a superb job in a bad time. Through criticism on every hand, he continues to do the right thing. I am impressed with his strength of character in a world of little people.
The latest act of heroism in my book is the appointing of his father and Mr. Clinton to head up some of the Hurricane Katrina disaster relief. What a wonderful example of strength of character! Some men would feel that they were in competition with the father that had preceded them in the same job. Others would feel threatened by a previous president from an opposing party.
To my way of thinking, Mr. Bush has put qualified leaders into positions of real need. These men can add their expertise and abilities to a truly horiffic situation.
I hope I don't hear any reporters talking about partisan politics for a while.
The way I see this situation is that a godly president has honored his father and given him another opportunity to use his leadership skills in a meaningful endeavor. He has also given an ex-president, who left office with a shameful record,(Oh yes, I know, there are those who hold him up at near god-like status--but I mean that he was a disgrace to moral people with high spiritual standards)to have another opportunity to repair some of his bad image and add to his much-spoken-of "legacy".
That takes character and godly wisdom.
I am about tired of hearing people condemning and causing dissension in our country. Whatever happened to the line of reasoning that it is better to be a part of the answer than to be a part of the problem. We all know that our country is not perfect, but what does it help to sit around and talk about all that is wrong. What difference does it make to KNOW who or what is to blame. There is a difference in bringing a problem to the forefront in order to remedy the situation and just causing dissension.
Enough of my venting today!!!! Happy Labor Day!(whatever that means)
