Parallels between Burr Oak and Obama

Many times the news just makes me furious.

All week ugly stories about the Burr Oak Cemetery and the demise of once principled business people. Total disregard for the families and their lives. The history of generations thrown away. Loved ones left for the elements. Sad isn't it?

All week now ugly stories about our United States of America's new leaders and the undermining of everything we have held dear for generations; our history, our freedoms. Sad isn't it?

I see the parallel. Do you? Scary isn't it? Principles being discarded, our lives being put in peril because of the greedy, power hungry men and women out to destroy and divide our great country. Total disregard for our freedoms, for our constitution, for our rights and our "one nation under God." Are we to be tossed aside, too, like the remains in the cemetery, broken and left to the "elected" elements?

Let's call it like he is, "Burr Oak Obama."

Sad isn't it?
