***GOP senator: Pence deserved better treatment at Notre Dame***

***I bet you gave a similar comment every time your team disrespected President Obama.***
...........................................................
1. The birther fiasco (2009-2011). No evidence. No proof. No documentation. But the story traveled on for years. Yes, Hawaii is part of the United States of America.
2. You lie (Sept. 2009). That any individual no less a member of Congress watching a U.S. President during a joint session on live national television is so lacking in self control that this moment was made possible is incredible even in an age of incivility. Remember this happened only nine months into Obamas presidency and is another we cant remember that ever happening ever before moment. Close your eyes and pretend Rep. Maxine Waters was Wilson doing this to President Bush and image the reaction.
3. Signs of the Tea Party (July 2010) and Naked Racism (April 2011). Anyone remember California GOP official Marilyn Davenports racist e-mail? Did she ever resign for that? I remember all the criticism of the NAACP particularly from Black Republicans for their Tea Party resolution of 2010. Where was that indignation regarding what can be viewed in this video? Click here.
4. Donald unchecked ego Trump inflames birther fiasco, media assists (April 2011). The mouth of Donald Trump is a powerful thing when joined with a 24-hour cable news cycle desperate for viewers. That news organizations invited Trump on the air unchallenged with zero proof of what he was saying speaks volumes on the state of journalism. That Trump was completely comfortable demanding that a U.S. President show him his papers displays a superiority complex that exists among those who cant accept someone they view as lesser in a position of power over them.
4. Deadbeat dad and probable one-termer thinks his presence before the President actually matters and needs to tell everyone (Sept 2011). The disrespect isnt that probable one term Congressman Joe Walsh (R-IL) wouldnt attend the Presidents Sept. 8 speech. The disrespect is that Rep. Walsh actually believed that everyone knowing he wasnt attending was important. That he needed to announce he would not attend on national television, as if anyone cared, was yet another delusional superiority episode. That proudly showing public disrespect towards the President is a winning strategy in some political circles reveals a lot.
5. Newt Gingrichs Kenyan anti-colonial behavior comment (Sept 2010). Even Washington Post columnist and conservative thinker George Will slammed this attempt to define the President as foreign. Never mind the facts: President Obama wasnt reared by his father in Kenya with whom he spent only a month of his 50 years on this earth. The strategy to define the President as a foreign or alien being was started by Sarah Palin in 2008.
6. One of the underlying premises of disrespect towards the President is that he can be ordered around and dictated to like hes Tipi the laundry boy. The presumption that a U.S. President can be ordered around is a new phenomenon that appears to have gotten underway around January 2009. From big mouth Congressmen to millionaires with nothing to do, you name it they all inherently believe they can order President Obama around. At least Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is an actual leader of something. Regardless, read this and ask yourself if you think this would have happened to Presidents Bush, Reagan or Clinton.

**You know Tom...respect is not an entitlement, it is something that you have to work darn hard to earn. Neither trump or pence deserve respect because they do not respect our Constitution, this Country or it's people. So Tommie...STFU!***
