Dear President Obama


From a 94 year old retired U.S. Navy Veteran. Got it from Congress.org

Dear President Obama,
My name is Harold Estes, approaching 95 on December 13 of this year. People meeting me for the first time don't believe my age because I remain wrinkle free and pretty much mentally alert.
I enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 1934 and served proudly before, during and after WW II retiring as a Master Chief Bos'n Mate. Now I live in a "rest home" located on the western end of Pearl Harbor allowing me to keep alive the memories of 23 years of service to my country.
One of the benefits of my age, perhaps the only one, is to speak my mind, blunt and direct even to the head man.
So here goes.
I am amazed, angry and determined not to see my country die before I do but you seem hell bent not to grant me that wish.
I can't figure out what country you are the president of. You fly around the world telling our friends and enemies despicable lies like:
" We're no longer a Christian nation"
" America is arrogant" - (Your wife even announced to the world,"America is mean-spirited. " Please tell her to try preaching that nonsense to 23 generations of our war dead buried all over the globe who died for no other reason than to free a whole lot of strangers from tyranny and hopelessness.)
I'd say shame on the both of you but I don't think you like America nor do I see an ounce of gratefulness in anything you do for the obvious gifts this country has given you. To be without shame or gratefulness is a dangerous thing for a man sitting in the White House.
After 9/11 you said," America hasn't lived up to her ideals."
Which ones did you mean? Was it the notion of personal liberty that 11,000 farmers and shopkeepers died for to win independence from the British ? Or maybe the ideal that no man should be a slave to another man that 500,000 men died for in the Civil War ? I hope you didn't mean the ideal 470,000 fathers, brothers,husbands,and a lot of fellas I knew personally died for in WWII, because we felt real strongly about not letting any nation push us around because we stand for freedom.
I don't think you mean the ideal that says equality is better than discrimination. You know the one that a whole lot of white people understood when they helped to get you elected.
Take a little advice from a very old geezer, young man. Shape up and start acting like an American.If you don't, I'll do what I can to see you get shipped out of that fancy rental on Pennsylvania Avenue .You were elected to lead not to bow, apologize and kiss the hands of murderers and corrupt leaders who still treat their people like slaves.
And just who do you think you are telling the American people not to jump to conclusions and condemn that Muslim major who killed 13 of his fellow soldiers and wounded dozens more. You mean you don't want us to do what you did when that white cop used force to subdue that black college professor in Massachusetts who was putting up a fight ? You don't mind offending the police calling them stupid but you don't want us to offend Muslim fanatics by calling them what they are, terrorists.
One more thing. I realize you never served in the military and never had to defend your country with your life but you're the Commander-in-Chief now, son. Do your job. When your battle-hardened field General asks you for 40,000 more troops to complete the mission, give them to him. But if you're not in this fight to win, then get out. The life of one American soldier is not worth the best political strategy you're thinking of.
You could be our greatest president because you face the greatest challenge ever presented to any president. You're not going to restore American greatness by bringing back our bloated economy. That's not our greatest threat. Losing the heart and soul of who we are as Americans is our big fight now. And I sure as hell don't want to think my president is the enemy in this final battle.
Sincerely,
Harold B. Estes

* SNL should go off the air. It's stupid.

* Legally all commercials should be limited to 30 seconds.

Fun Facts

* There is some kind of state law that all retail places must play Christmas music from Thanksgiving through Christmas. It's psychological.. it's supposed to make you want to buy more by getting you in the Christmas spirit. But an unintended consequence is that it makes the employees want to climb up on a high rise building with a deer rifle. Collateral damage I guess.

* I miss the days when I got Hungry Hungry Hippos for Christmas and all was right with the world. These days you have to get kids laptops.

My Rambling Manifesto

Chapter One

Society is sliding hopelessly down hill. It was happening long before Barack Husein Obama took office. He is only a product of the slide. Who can possibly pinpoint when we took a turn for the worst? Well that's not entirely true.. shortly after God created Adam and Eve we all started slowly dying before we were even born.

But skip that and think about our current state. It's pretty much a loveless society. There is real love and goodness out there but these days it's about the 8th story on the newscast every night and half the time the person who did the good deed is on the news to tell the world about it. Real good deeds go untold. Neighbor helping neighbor really only takes place these days in very small towns, and very small towns don't make news.

We are told that we need this upcoming health care bill because poor people don't have access to health care. Which is true. But the health care bill is like trying to put out a fire by pouring leaves on it. It might initially allow some people to have access to a state run mediocre health care but eventually the fire will reemerge greater than before.

The reason? It has nothing to do with the evil of socialism. Socialism isn't inherently evil. Socialism simply neglects to factor in a fundamental truth which by nature renders every "ism" dead on arrival. And that is human nature. Why do you think that communism failed so miserably? It's because the founders of it were sinister in their attempt. No matter how hard they wanted to, they couldn't help but cling on to their stuff. We all LOVE stuff. And government forcing us to spread our stuff around doesn't somehow magically cause us to stop liking our own stuff.

We love our stuff. Barack Husein Obama, Mao Zedong, Linen, Stalin, and even Karl Marx all loved their stuff. But they also love controlling the flow of stuff.. Because if you control the flow of stuff you can cause people to be forced to rely on you to have any stuff whatsoever.. and that is true power.

So my rambling point is that society is hopelessly sliding down hill because we all love stuff.. and a select few of us loves stuff AND the power to control stuff.. and so we sit and wait for America, the world's greatest experiment in freedom, to die the slow death and fade into control and mediocrity. We cannot stop it.. it's too late.. We can only delay it.
