Historical Date

This week in history marked a very historical date , September 17th. , a day that is remembered by millions of people across the world . Now some of you are probably asking yourselves why is this date so significant , for three important reasons. Reason one; 202 years ago on this date the most important document ever signed in this country became our law and the measuring stick against all other legal decisions in our nation , give up , our amazing and wonderful constitution!Yes 202 years ago our founding fathers , after 9 years of hard work and dedication hammered out a document so well written nations around the world hold it up as a work of genius.Reason number two ; in 1939 on this date the Soviet Union marched into Poland and did not leave until it established a puppet government that lasted a generation. Yes one of the worlds great tyrants , Joseph Stalin , put his mark on Polish history by imposing his will on a country that had just suffered under the yoke of the Nazi occupation . This date is remembered for very different reasons than we remember it in America. Reason number three , this week our president took away some of our security by removing our nuclear umbrella in eastern Europe . It is my sincerest hope that as a nation we don't live to regret this foolish action . A boxer will tell you the worst thing you can do in a prize-fight is to drop your guard , I fear Obama's hasty decision will come back to , not only jeopardize our friends in eastern Europe and Israel, but also give our enemies the perception that we are a paper tiger. The Cuban missile crisis was resolved by a show of strength ,as was the fall of the Soviet Union. Mister Obama has yet to understand that weakness will be perceived by his actions , and weakness gives our enemies confidence.Let's all hope that September 17th. 2009 is not a date that the United States will live to regret!!
