I sat, as did millions of other Americans, and watched as our government
underwent a peaceful transition of power 2 years ago.
At first, I felt a swell of pride and patriotism as I watched George W. Bush take his oath of office.
However, all that pride quickly vanished as I later watched William Jefferson Clinton board Air Force One for the last time.
I saw 21 Marines, in full dress uniform with rifles, fire a 21-gun salute to the outgoing President.
It was then that I realized how far America's military had deteriorated under Clinton.
Every last one of them missed.
