Pharmer’s 16 yo daughter enjoyed about 90 minutes of respite from Obamunism today. This is a phenomenon, perhaps related to daydreaming or absence seizures, that can occur in the minds of young people. She attended a convocation at her high school honoring a soldier from this area who had recently suffered serious injury and loss of his legs while serving in Afghanistan.
The possibility of a visit from President Bush for Veterans Day had been discussed at the High school. It is projected that our soldier might be sufficiently recovered to return home and be present for this year’s Veterans Day celebration. Pharmer’s daughter contemplated a possible visit from the President, and just then said: “Oh I just remembered, Obama is our president, not Bush. I forgot that for about an hour and a half….. It felt so good. I miss President Bush. If I actually saw him, I’d want to give him a hug.” (That’s remarkably more effusive than usual for her.)
Yep…… the grrl had a blissful moment of unreality brought on by that convocation today.
Thanks to our Army Infantry soldier for his sacrifice and service to our country, and even for bringing on that little vacation from Obamunism.
