Hail to the Chief

I can’t believe I forgot Presidents’ Day this year. No, not that Presidents’ Day, on which we honor liars, philanderers, fools, and treasonous men who trample the Constitution underfoot alongside men who served their country honorably with integrity and truly deserve a day of honor. That one is coming up. Presidents’ Day, for me, will always be February 6th, the birthday of the greatest man to occupy the Whitehouse at least during my lifetime, President Ronald Reagan.

Ahhhhhh, for the good old days. I miss him. A friend of mine in seminary had a framed picture of Reagan on top of his television and the frame was covered in flowers with the words "Our Savior" set within the flowers. It was a bit of satire, of course, but Reagan was his man.Are there any Reagans on the horizon; I think not.

I have him on my office wall. No flowers or "savior" label, but he was about as close to a political savior as one can get. We had much to be saved from then, as we do now.
