"Wow! I'm shocked! Where's your loyalty as an American citizen? No matter what your disagreement is with any president, he is still your president. No one should ever disrespect a president---not ever. We should always remain loyal to our president--------especially when the disrespect comes from a different country. It may have been just a shoe, but it was disrespect just the same. How would you have felt if it had happen to Obama?"


That was a comment from my grandmother. Anyway, I would feel the same. It doesn't matter who he is. I would have a problem if he shot the president, but harmfully throwing shoes is a whole different story. If some guy you didn't know killed your family and friends, I'm sure that you would be pretty mad too. And anyway, just because I have my opinion, you are telling me that I have no loyalty? Are you kidding me? And don't go trying to tell me that you didn't say that because it is right here: "Where's your loyalty as an American citizen?" My dream is to serve this country, and you, my family, should know that better than anyone. It might be disrespect, but the guy felt that George W. Bush had disrespected him. If he had thrown a shoe at any other American, you wouldn't care. George W. Bush is not a symbol of this country. The American flag is a symbol. He might be a leader, but I'm sure Bush himself would tell you that he is a person just like anybody else. And Barack Obama would do the same.
