reaganxmastree     Last night after finishing our Christmas Eve dinner, we were still seated at the dining room table playing Table Topics. One of the topics elicited the comment from me that “I thought this country was getting ready to have the greatest swing to the right it has ever seen.” Of course, this is my hope; no, it is my prayer that this great country founded on Judeo Christian values will return to those values so wisely utilized by our Founding Fathers.  This morning, while enjoying the peace of Christmas morning that can only be realized when one has almost grown children, I was reading some of my conservative blogs and found this Christmas address from Ronald Reagan.  Reagan gave this address exactly at the same point in his first term as Obama is now. Let’s see; Obama gives us healthcare reform that all the Democrats say “we’ll love” once we learn more about it despite the American people saying “no”; and then flies off to Hawaii. The Gipper gives us “the hope that is America”. (This Reagan address also covered the plight of the Polish people against the Soviets and America’s determination to support them. Might be a message Obama might give to the Afghans, Iraqis and Iranians. I have edited this just for the Christmas message.)

     Anyway, here’s my Christmas wishes courtesy of the The Great Communicator, Ronald Wilson Reagan.
