I sat, as did millions of other Americans, and watched as the government
Under went a peaceful transition of power a year ago..
At first, I felt a swell of pride and patriotism while
Barack Obama took his Oath of office.

However, all that pride quickly vanished as I later watched 21Marines,
In full dress uniform with rifles, Fire a 21-gun salute to the President.
It was then that I realized how far America's military had deteriorated.
Every one of them missed the jerk.
