I received this in an email from a church pastor I know. It is purported to be a letter written to the president by a fourth grade teacher. That may or may not be true...I can't say for sure. However, I wanted to post it here for the truth it contains.

Mr.
Obama:
[/align]
[/align]
I have had it with you
and your administration, sir. Your conduct on your recent trip
overseas has convinced me that you are not an adequate
representative of the United States of America collectively or
of me personally.
[/align]
[/align]
You are so obsessed with
appeasing the Europeans and the Muslim world that you have
abdicated the responsibilities of the President of the United
States of America . You are responsible to the citizens of the
United States . You are not responsible to the peoples of any
other country on earth.
[/align]
[/align]
I personally resent that
you go around the world apologizing for the United States
telling Europeans that we are arrogant and do not care about
their status in the world. Sir, what do you think the First
World War and the Second World War were all about if not the
consideration of the peoples of Europe ? Are you brain dead?
What do you think the Marshall Plan was all about? Do you not
understand or know the history of the 20th century?
[/align]
[/align]
Where do you get off
telling a Muslim country that the United States does not
consider itself a Christian country? Have you not read the
Declaration of Independence or the Constitution of the United
States ?
[/align]
This country was founded
on Judeo-Christian ethics and the principles governing this
country, at least until you came along, come directly from
this heritage. Do you not understand this?
[/align]
[/align]
Your bowing to the king
of Saudi Arabia is an affront to all Americans. Our President
does not bow down to anyone, let alone the king of Saudi
Arabia . You didn't show Great Britain , our best and one of
our oldest allies, the respect they deserve yet you bow down
to the king of Saudi Arabia .. How dare you, sir! How dare
you!
[/align]
[/align]
You can't find the time
to visit the graves of our greatest generation because you
don't want to offend the Germans but make time to visit a
mosque in Turkey .. You offended our dead and every veteran
when you give the Germans more respect than the people who
saved the German people from themselves. What's the matter
with you? I am convinced that you and the members of your
administration have the historical and intellectual depth of a
mud puddle and should be ashamed of yourselves, all of you.
[/align]
[/align]
You are so
self-righteously offended by the big bankers and the American
automobile manufacturers yet do nothing about the real thieves
in this situation, Mr. Dodd, Mr. Frank, Franklin Raines, Jamie
Gorelic, the Fannie Mae bonuses, and the Freddie Mac bonuses.
What do you intend to do about them? Anything? I seriously
doubt it. Executives at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will be
receiving $210 million in bonuses over an eighteen-month
period, that's $45 million more than the AIG bonuses. In fact,
Fannie and Freddie executives have already been awarded $51
million - not a bad take. Who authorized that and why haven't
you expressed your outrage at this group who are largely
responsible for the economic mess we have right now.
[/align]
[/align]
What about the U.S. House
members passing out $9.1 million in bonuses to their staff
members - on top of the $2.5 million in automatic pay raises
that lawmakers gave themselves? I understand the average House
aide got a 17% bonus. I took a 5% cut in my pay to save jobs
with my employer. You haven't said anything about that. Who
authorized that? I surely didn't!
[/align]
[/align]
I resent that you take me
and my fellow citizens as brain-dead and not caring about what
you idiots do. We are watching what you are doing and we are
getting increasingly fed up with all of you.
[/align]
[/align]
I also want you to know
that I personally find just about everything you do and say to
be offensive to every one of my sensibilities. I promise you
that I will work tirelessly to see that you do not get a
chance to spend two terms destroying my beautiful country.
[/align]

Sincerely,
