This Sickens me............

A Ohio man who led the Cleveland Firefighters Memorial Pipes & Drums band resigned after being suspended for acknowledging the President during the inaugural parade. The President waved to him as he and his band passed by the reviewing stand. He proceeded to "nod" to the President, acknowledging the wave. This, somehow, is so egregious, that this man can no longer work saving lives and property??? How demented has this country become? He is being punished for respecting his own President! Those who have read my blog know I am not a big fan of the President. However............he is STILL THE PRESIDENT!!! Agree or disagree with him, I would MOST DEFINITELY, acknowledge the man if he were to wave to me and accord him all the respect that ANY President deserves. How low has this country sunk?
