Respect For The American People AWOL In The Obama Presidency

Bill O’Reilly was heard on his show recently parroting the all-too-familiar adage about always “respecting the office of the President even if you don’t necessarily respect the president.” The discussion was about Obama’s heated reply to the outbursts of one Texas-based TV reporter who couldn’t wait to speak until the question-and-answer period of the meeting took place. Politico has labeled the incident as – ‘The outburst heard round the world.’
Insult was added to injury when, in the same week as the famous outburst, two other Obama appointees also inserted their worst into the public record by saying not just the ridiculous, but what to some would qualify as downright undignified and disrespectful to the Congress, the Constitution, and virtually every American. Now the Congress and lawful legislative process has been ignored for a move that no American left with a mere pint of blood and a single brain cell does not see as a political move to bolster a shaky re-election bid. The announcement to give amnesty to illegal immigrants is a serious and disrespectful blow to those trying to enter the country legally. It is insulting to states with overburdened welfare and education systems and their respective governors. Why haven’t we considered breaking open all our jails and prisons to find those offenders who have only one non-violent felony on their records and giving our own citizens some of that easy amnesty?
We heard Mr. Obama swear he would defend the Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic at his inauguration. But we also know that to constantly cast all that is foreign, against all that is domestic, is to create a new enemy to the constitution. It is not a new enemy, but one that has always been known and named as ‘the enemy within.’ My only question is: why doesn’t someone who Mr. Obama really respects tell these telling words to the President for the rest of us.
We will always respect the office of the president, but on this two way street in these days, we see that all men are not created equal. We see the president’s respect for the environmentalists, the gays, and the immigrants. But this is a nation of 350 million, and from the learned statesmen to those struggling to read at a fifth grade level, we don’t feel or see the respect for our citizens.
