I worked vigorously to get President Barack Obama elected, and I was on ABC Nightly news with Charles Gibson 50 State Tour.  After his win many of us thought the worst criticism was over but we were wrong, and the unprecedented attacks has increased upon him, his wife Michelle, their children, friends, and will continue long after these Health Care Issues are over.

We can only imagine the impact this criticism must have on members of our military personnel, their wives, husbands, and dependent children around the nation including commissioned and non-commissioned officers stationed at Moody Air Force Base here in Valdosta Georgia.

Where local citizens watch, read, and listen to local television, newspapers, and radio stations calling their President and Executive Commander-In-Chief a racists, socialists, terrorists, ignorant, hates White people, he hates America among hundreds of other derogatory comments as their fellow soldiers are fighting and dying in Iraq and Afghanistan.

During the presidential election I registered a 92-year-old lady and she said Barack Obama was criticized more than any presidential candidate she had ever seen.  So what has President Obama done to equal the centuries of mistreatment Blacks suffered here in America? 

Blacks did not condemn the other 43 White Male Presidents even though the United States Library of Congress states that Blacks came to these shores in the year of 1555 aboard a slave ship called Jesus, captained by one Sir. John Hawkins a White European Slave Trader. 

Although Blacks were mistreated they refused to attack White presidents in contrast to Black Columnist Star Parker and other patriots bent on destroying President Obama. 

So regardless of how we feel about our Executive Commander In-Chief all commissioned and non-commissioned officers now serving in Iraq and Afghanistan must rise above the criticism and carry out the assigned mission.

Yet there are those who believe that unless their particular candidate (Democratic, Republican, or Independent) with the same religious beliefs wins the office of president.  Then it becomes their duty and responsibility to destroy that president at all cost.  We must stop this trend and stop sending politicians to Washington bent on hatred.  God bless America!
