To Say Something

I really don't know what to say about today. I have mixed feelings. But, I think I ought to say something.

On September 11, 2001 President Bush became my friend. That day he was the leader that we all needed him to be. I have not agreed with him on everything. In fact I'm still scratching my head on some things particularly with the economy. But, he has kept us safe. I think most of us probably thought that another terrorist attack on American soil was eminent. But, in 7 years we have been kept safe. I thank him for that. I still have warm feelings for him and wish him the very best.

President Obama is now my president. I will support him when I can. I of course will stand up against him when I believe he is wrong. I do think it is awesome that our country has now moved to the point where we can elect an African-American president.

Both of them are in my prayers today.
