Dear Editor,
The House/Senate Democrats reaction to the SOTU (State of the Union) was, in my opinion, childish. They couldn’t bring themselves to stand when POTUS celebrated our National Anthem and our flag? Personally, it angered me. But before you sufferers of Partisan Blindness Syndrome (PBS) get your knickers in a knot, I recognize PBS is virulent in both parties, and with the annual SOTU the egomaniacal, moronic arrogance of the minority party-du-jour is on full display, i.e. sit like stumps with facial expressions indicative of constipation.
PBS-infected Congressmen self-righteously claim President Trump is a mentally unstable narcissist who should resign. Newsflash: if every Congressman that is a mentally unstable narcissist were to resign, the House and Senate chambers would resemble a mausoleum.
Really though, with leaders like McConnell, Schumer, Ryan and Pelosi in charge, what do we have to worry about? It’s good we voters reelect these altruistic intellectual titans.
God bless America, and God bless our military.
