While I disagree with much this President has done and much that he wants to do, I am no fool. I thank god every single day for his being President. Not a single Democrat who might have been President could even shine this man’s shoes. The last sentence of this remarkable piece by Michael Novak at National Review is striking…read the whole thing.
This President’s Day weekend, I can’t help but give thanks for our current one, brave and resolute, disregarding all the ugly and contemptuous vilification turned against him, firm in the knowledge that Providence favors the free.
Providence is no Pollyanna, and the good guys by no means always win. (Peek at God’s own Son on the cross). Yet I will be terribly surprised if, perhaps sooner rather than later (and for sure in the long serene light of history), this brave man’s resolution is cause for national pride and celebration. The very jeers of his critics while he lived will become the measure of the valor he has shown.
Let historians look back on my words with mockery if they will. I would rather stand at this president’s side any day, than among those who for the second time bring dishonor upon this nation.
