The First Test

American President Barach Obama responded to the high-seas kidnapping of an American citizen, with swift and decisive resolve, killing those kidnappers who threatened the life of an American citizen. Three perpetrators, three bullets …three enemies of America dead. For the first time in more than eight years, America demonstrated our firm commitment to those who would take us for granted. We display to the world a brand of civilization replete with generosity and sound judgment. Those who would join us in our journey towards progress and prosperity will find us friendly and even hospitable. However, those who choose to threaten the USA will discover that which they have never encountered in the history of their experience. Make no mistake, the strength of America was not revealed in previous administrations because those leaders of the past were unfamiliar with the overcoming of obstacles. Such is no longer the case. Lead, follow, or get out of the way.
