Whoever it is…

One of the things that’s bothered me the very most about the Left during the Bush Presidency is how much disdain, unabated hatred, and utter contempt that the Left held for not just President Bush, but for the office of the President.

I was a Soldier in the U.S. Army during Bill Clinton’s Presidency. While I differed on much of what the man stood for, I understood that he was the President of my country. And he needed as much support and respect as that office deserved.

I’m not saying that Presidents shouldn’t be criticized nor scrutinized — but to do it in such a hateful and disrespectful manner the way the left has is another thing entirely. The rampant Bush Derangement Syndrome I’ve seen over the last 7 years has been sad, pathetic, and disheartening.

I really do doubt and question the patriotism of people who are filled with nothing but hate for our President. People who are actually rooting for his failure, his demise, and often his death.

How you could not want your President to succeed is beyond me. I can’t imagine ever being so overcome with cynicism and hatred to sink that far.

So what happens if Hillary Clinton or Barrack Obama or Al Gore becomes the next President of this country?

I’ve been critical of all three of them. And if one of them is our next President, I’ll continue to criticize policies that I think are bad, wrong, or ill-conceived.

But I’ll do something the left is completely incapable of — I’ll support them as our President. I’ll hope for successes for our country. I won’t be rooting for their downfall. I won’t spend every minute tearing them down, criticizing their every move.
