Telling the People
By Rob Hood (02/01/06)
My personal thoughts regarding the State of the Union address by President Bush is that he done an excellent job in covering the subjects that needed covering the most. He stressed throughout his speech the need for democracy in the Middle East and the need to stay the course in Iraq and not back down.
I am certainly glad he took on the rival factions of liberal Democrats who only applauded for recognizing the death of the Social Security proposal that could have helped people like me. Thank you Mr. Reid and Mrs. Pelosi for taking away my chance at my own private account that I paid for with my tax money that you control. It haunts me to know we live in a politically saturated world of people like these who devote more time to social security issues to win them elections than to actual devote to fixing the problem. I commend Mr. Bush for shaking his finger in their face and telling them that it’s not over yet and the problem is not going away. Thank you, Mr. President, for sticking up for what is right.
Other parts of his speech personally impacted me. I am glad to have elected a President who has not faltered and has not moved an inch on his stance regarding gay marriage, abortion, human cloning, and embryonic stem cell research. Most people who have crumbled under pressure and gave in to these evil actions, but not our president. He has stood strong on every issue and has not backed down one bit and that is certainly admirable and courageous and truly an act of faith.
As for the counterstrike afterwards, Mr. Tim Kaine who is the Democratic Governor of Virginia made his speech. I was expecting a shrill and angry liberal politician like we had last year who were the tag team consisting of Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi, but did not receive that. Actually Mr. kaine was at one time a Catholic missionary and won his position of Governor based on his moral values and faith. Personally I don’t know where Mr. Kaine stands on important issues like gay marriage, abortion, human cloning, and other such things. He seems like a good man and I certainly hope that he has not sacrificed the teachings of his faith for political gain. I hope that he still heeds the word of God as infallible and incorruptible instead of ever-changing like some of today’s false teachers are preaching on.
What ever the case may be, I know where I stand and I know where my president stands and that’s good enough for me. Thank you Mr. President and our troops for protecting my country and for protecting my values, faith, liberty, and freedom.
