I stand for the National Anthem. I gladly pledge my allegiance. I financially support some veterans' programs, therefore after reading this blog, please feel free to comment but don't say something foolish, i.e., 'Love It Or Leave It.' That's a lame response.
Lee Greenwood is a singer best know for his rendition of "Proud To Be An American." Let me tell you straight up, the events of the past two weeks made it difficult for me to be a proud American.
First, I watched Congressional hearings where our elected lawmakers behaved in a disgusting and childish manner. Later, my President went abroad and showed his all familiar obnoxious-bullying personality, then stand next to our nation's greatest adversary (Vladimir Putin) and supported that dictator over our very own men and women who risk their lives daily attempting to protect our people. Twenty-seven hours later, after stepping in his own doo-doo, the President then made a feeble-lying statement attempting to 'walk-back' his unpatriotic comments. And this President calls black NFL players who kneel during the National Anthem, SOB's? Trump has the most imprudent behavior that I have ever observed in a person not institutionalized.
Interesting, this less than proud American can become truly depressed watching either Fox News or MSNBC, which are two diametrically opposed political viewpoints. From what I can gather, the only thing these two cable news outlets agree on is a need to address erectile dysfunction...both run Viagra commercial frequently.
I got my Proud to be an American groove back watching a re-run of the movie 'Private Ryan.'
