HEROES

Do you remember one of the last scenes in “The Wizard of Oz”?  Dorothy and Toto were being held hostage by the wicked witch, who was demonstrating her powers. Throughout the whole movie, she was terrifying Dorothy and her friends.   Dorothy’s friends came to rescue her from the wicked witch. 

The wicked witch had these ugly, demon-looking creatures and these soldiers that were doing her bidding.  Dorothy and her friends were about to escape when the wicked witch stepped in.  The witch tried to set the scarecrow on fire and Dorothy threw a bucket of water on him.  It also hit the witch and she began to melt.  Dorothy and her friends were not sure what these creatures and the soldiers would do to them.  There was a pause and the creatures and soldiers began to clap their hands together rejoiced that the wicked witch was dead. 

I believe this is what we Americans, Congress, and the military should physically do by taking this wicked administration out and give them a dose of their own medicine, (use your imagination on this) No one would be scared of our freedoms, guns, heads or bodies being taken away from us!  We would all be clapping and dancing in the streets.

When I woke up this morning I visualized all of this and Rudy Giuliani being the hero that Dorothy was!  I then thought of little David the Shepherd boy.  All the soldiers were rubbing their hands together wondering what to do and were terrified of this giant Goliath.  David had faith that his God would protect him.  He went right out to meet the giant and the giant was mocking him.  David threw a stone with his slingshot and boom right between the eyes he hit him and down went the huge giant.

This is the way I feel about what is going on in our country today.  Give us a Dorothy and a David.  I am very grateful for all the branches of military service past and present, but give us a brave leader a hero to lead our military to overthrow this evil regime!
