[WND] While we live in a time when many Americans will not admit it, I will: I love my country. Through good times and bad, good presidencies and bad, that love has never diminished. One generation of family member after another — from Jacob Zumwalt who served during the American Revolution to my son's 21st century service in Iraq as a bomb technician — attests to this love by voluntarily serving in uniform.As a veteran who served for over a quarter of a century, I never thought I would say this about a commander in chief, but the terrorist bombing at the Kabul airport that claimed 40 lives, including at least 13 of our brave warriors, leaves me no choice. It is love of country and all those serving to protect her who have needlessly, callously and intentionally been put in harm's way with no rational basis for doing so that forces me now to declare: "Mr. Biden, you are not my president."
I do this with deep concerns. Every president before Biden making a bad decision did it with the same love of country many of us harbor. But Biden's outrageous actions, both in opening up our borders and rushing to withdraw from Afghanistan, is senselessly claiming American lives.
While the lives of all 40 victims claimed by suicide bombers is tragic, as a veteran my heart went out especially to the soldiers and Marines lost. Many had spent months in harm's way and were undoubtedly excited to know, despite the chaotic withdrawal Biden ordered, they would soon be back with loved ones. Yet, in a split second, that all changed specifically because Biden had inexcusably ignored the advice of much more experienced military experts.
Based on a political career lasting almost half a century, Biden, allegedly, was more experienced and better qualified for the Oval Office than some of his Democratic Party presidential predecessors. Governors Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton lacked the national and international experience that senator and Vice President Biden had before becoming president. The danger of inexperienced governors taking the national reigns of power became evident as Carter dragged us through the Iran hostage crisis and Clinton did the same with his numerous sex scandals. Yet, only seven months into what, hopefully, is only a single presidential term, Biden makes Carter and Clinton look like boy scouts.
