Mr. Noah Webster defines History as "A narration of events in the order in which they happened, with their causes and effects.
I am generally not one who would subscribe to the view that history is simply a cycle that goes round indefinitely without meaning, purpose, or design. However I couldn't help but rethink my view of history this week. If you saw President Obama's town hall style meeting in Fort Meyers, Florida you too may have been experiencing a little De'ja' vu. Julio Oseguedo, a 19 year old college student donning an Obama t-shirt complained that he had been employed at Mcdonald's for 4 1/2 years unable to get another job and wanted to know what the President could do for him.
If you are a political junkie the name Denton Walthall may sound familiar. I'll give you a second to rattle your brain! No- you got nothing!!O.K. Mr. Walthall was the gentleman who reared his 'pony-tailed' head at the 1992 presidential debate in Richmond Virginia to ask then President George H. W. Bush, Governor Bill Clinton and Millionaire Business man Ross Perot to imagine that the president of the United States is the father of us all and essentially went on to ask the same thing as Julio.
I find it maddening that leftists refuse to live up to the words of the one they revere more than any other. "Ask not what your country can do for you..."
