STAND BEHIND YOUR COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF

As today dawned, President Bush arose and attended prayer services which mark only the first of many events for the President today...unlike any other day, today President Bush gets to put his hand on the Holy Bible and solemnly swear to defend the U.S. (right you and me alike...whether we are black, white, red, yellow, purple, baptist, buddhist, catholic, etc), we shall be defended...many people out there have issues with Bush as President...well, America spoke on Nov. 4, and you wouldn't want to lose "your" say would you? But, I'm not trying to stir up trouble with this post...

On my way in to work this morning, the radio show was discussing the importance and the excitement of today inaugural festivities...the placing of the hand on the Holy Bible, and the swearing/confirming to defend the constitution AND the "so help me God" (which, as a rule was not part of the constitution, just something that George Washington himself added and EVERY President so far has failed to include)...but they posed a question...As Commander-in-chief, Bush has a lot of things in his hands and a lot of promises to attempt to live up to...but, what do we as Americans have to do? Just sit around on our little blogs and either criticize the President, or talk about who would have been a better choice to run this nation? I say Nay, Nay...what we should all be doing (thanks to Doug and Kim for the inspiration) at precisely noon today, we as Americans should everyone (different religions and atheists included because I'm sorry, you are living in a country that is founded on Christianity)should place their hands on a Holy Bible and take an oath that we will also defend America (rather than tear at it's seams)...another part of that oath should be that we stand beside of our President..not behind him waiting to stab him in the back...think about it, what would be said if everyone who voted against Bush this past election was sent to live "permanently" in another country...STAND BEHIND YOUR COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF......

To close out my little tirade, pray, pray for our troops, pray for out leaders who are making all the critical decisions...just pray...
