Ortega On America

Just the other day President Obama sat through a speech that socialist Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega gave which lashed out at the United States of America which he called terroristic U.S. agression in Central America.

Obama sat through the speech seemingly unmoved. At the end of the speech when he was asked what he thought about it, all he said was "It was 50 minutes long. That's what I thought."

That's all Mr. President? THAT'S ALL YOU HAVE TO SAY? Where is your love for your country? Where is your patriotism? I am not even the president but I would have at least stood up for my country! I think, our President HAS forgotten.

Our Flag



This a poem I wrote while sitting in a holding room before giving my FFA speech.

Our Flag

High in the sky,
Brave and free!
Our flag is flying,
O'er our Country.

Fought for,
Fought over!
She never fails,
NEVER!


She'll e'er be over us,
E're be watching us.
Bringing us through,
Each and every fight.

Fought for,
Fought over!
She never fails,
NEVER!
