Kaepernick and Obama, trump this Kool-Aid
I had tears of joy in my eyes the day President Obama was sworn in as the 44th president of the United states of America.
Many including myself never thought with our nations history of black slaves, a little over a century later we would elect a black president!
First of all let me say, I hate Kool-Aid but not only drank the Obama Kool-Aid, I was mesmerized by it. I defended everything he said. I even named my female dog after him.
Fast forward 8 years.--so many changes. I am blown away that my president will not identify the enemy as Islamic extremists and defends football Quarterback Colin Kaepernick
kneeling during America's national anthem.
Watching NFL football used to be a safe zone, away from the political hoopla, a time to give our minds a rest, not any more. Now we have a bunch of over paid millionaires dictating to us on their companies time their political beliefs?
How many people would be allowed to protest their beliefs during working hours? let the players protest on their own time, not while being paid obnoxious sums of money to play and entertain us.
Colin Kaepernick's white parents that adopted and raised him |
So as the election nears, remember to stay away from the political Kool-Aid and think for yourself. I prefer Lemon-Aid. Can anyone trump that?
