I thought it was great until I saw a show where they were showing the machine that is used to sign for presidents. Then I looked closer and it was signing the military retirement certificates!! But realisitically, they can't sign them all or we would see presidents going around with serious carpal tunnel issues.
Hope all understand that this isn't meant to be anti-anything but anti-VICK! I still think it is just SO wrong to give any support for this guy. The President should save his support for those who merit it, IMO. It should really mean something extra special when the President takes the time to make a phone call in his official capacity. |
Well, tell your son that I am sending him and the others on his ship a great big THANK YOU! I am not the president but I do teach Social Studies. Lol! I do appreciate all of the men and women serving in the military.
