Happy (Not Our) Presidents Day!

Tweet

It's interesting that for the first time in my memory Presidents Day is being observed by protests all across the nation against the current occupant of the White House, or at least PART TIME occupant when he's not wasting our tax dollars by taking weekly trips to Florida. I choose to take this time to reflect on our previous 44 Presidents, most of whom I wasn't alive to personally observe them in action, but of those whose presidencies I have lived through all of them were qualified and fit for the job whether I supported or agreed with them or not. None of them kept me awake at night in fear of what shoe would drop next and none of them made me feel a sense of dread and doom as I realized all the things my generation and those before me had worked and fought so hard for would likely soon be gone, perhaps forever. So, thank you, President George Washington, President Barack Obama and the other 42 that came in between, thank you for being Presidents of all Americans and for at least trying to unite rather than divide us. We all owe you a huge apology for allowing your hard work to go for naught.
