Okay, okay, I have been remiss in keeping this weblog up.  But recently something is really bothering me so I am going to vent a bit here about it.  And since I feel so strongly about raising my boys to be respectful patriots and citizens it actually does belong on my site about mothering my boys.

When did President Bush lose his title and position and become a normal guy called Mr. Bush!!!!!!  The trailers at the bottom of the morning news shows apparently believe he is no longer the leader of the strongest, greatest nation in the free world and has gone to calling him just "Mr. Bush".  How can we expect the rest of the world to take this country and our leaders seriously if the media portrays them so disrespectfully??!!  We are so blessed to be able to live here and take advantage of all the U.S. of A.  offers us, including free speech, but really!!  We continue to enjoy these privileges because of the leadership of this country, and men and women of principle and integrity who are willing to put it all on the line and serve.

President Bush, keep up the good fight, continue to serve and lead and you will always, just as your father before you, be President Bush to me and mine.  We remember your leadership through all the ups and downs of the last 7+ years and applaud you for hanging in there and doing your best to do what you think was/is best.  We elected you to do just that.  And I thank you for giving up these years of your life to lead.  Thank you, President Bush!

You aren't the only one who feels this way.  Many, many of us think that President Bush is doing a great job.  Especially when you consider that congress has seen fit to fight President Bush on just about every issue facing this great nation of ours!

Here!  Here!

I get frustrated with that too.  I think it started during President Clinton's tenure.  The public lost respect for him and began just referring to him as "Bill Clinton".  Treating the president with such familiarity (and disrespect) carried over to the office of presidency and into President Bush's tenure.  It's a pity.  I wonder if the American people will ever regain the same respect for the Office.  Perhaps it will degrade into the same honor UK bestows upon the royal family.  That would be a shame.
