I am and always will be a Christian first and a member of a political party, if at all, second. If you fellows want to be targets of every screwball with a missile go ahead, but please leave me and my loved ones out of it. CDL

I will agree with Dan here.
I think that it is extremely disrespectful when our leaders are referred to by only their last names. I would not like to see any of our Presidents referred to like that here again, whether they are Democrat or Republican.
Have politics become so ugly and dirty in this country, and have we sunk so low as as people that we now call our Presidents 'dictators'? Do we honestly think, and do we honestly believe that they are not doing their best to protect our homeland?!?
I would like to remind everyone that we are in a war. Perhaps not everyone lost someone they knew in the Twin Towers like I did, but to say that security against further acts of terrorism is not important is absurd!
Such mentality also cries 'racial profiling' at airports, yet I would have gladly seen my young adult son, who looks quite Middle Eastern, get frisked and searched for the safety of that plane, rather than me--a green eyed, fair skinned, neatly dressed blonde. Yet, *I* was the one who got frisked and stopped in England, and my son just wizzed by. I thought that was also absurd!
We are in a war.
Let's get over the PC silliness, and the partisan hysterics, and stand together as a people. A house divided against itself cannot stand.
In Christ,
Alice
