Opinion: Bigots want to take back their country back

Official photographic portrait of US President...

Unpatriotic bigots have threatened, insulted, and disrespected the president and first lady. Are they testing the resolve of the White House? Bigots want to take back their country. Daniel Coward pleaded guilty in a plot to kill Obama.  Sergeant Pat Shearer is being probed by Peoria Police Department for posting a picture of seven young men on Facebook who used the president’s silhouette for target practice.

Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner referred to the first lady as having a “big butt.” Congressman Joe Wilson disrespected the Office of the Presidency when he called the president a liar on national television. Rahm Emanuel, then White House Chief of Staff said, “No president has been treated like that ever.” Capitol Hill observers said it was an unprecedented breach of protocol and showed utter disrespect for the Office of the Presidency. Recently Governor Jan Brewer of Arizona took the liberty to shake her finger in the president’s face. In a debate over the debt ceiling, Rep. Doug Lamborn said that being associated with President Obama is like touching a “tar baby.”

So far, after the disrespect, threats, and insults, there have been no consequences.

No one dared to disrespect the Office of the Presidency before an African-American was elected president. In my opinion, threats, insults, and disrespecting the Office of the Presidency are tantamount to treason.

The White House has to come down hard on all unpatriotic bigots. If you can’t respect the man, at least respect the Office of the Presidency. After the damage has been done, bigots apologize and start over. How far will they go to take back their country?
