Letter from the parents of Aaron Carson Vaughn of SEAL Team VI: Please resign, Mr. President

Special to WorldTribune.com

By Billy and Karen Vaughn

After finally choosing to view the barbaric, on-camera beheading by ISIS of freelance war correspondent James Foley, I have been left with a level of rage known only to those of us who have sacrificed unspeakable offerings on the altar of world peace.

My offering was my only son — Aaron Carson Vaughn. Aaron was a member of SEAL Team VI. He was killed in action when a CH47D Chinook, carrying thirty Americans and eight Afghans was shot down in the Tangi River Valley of Afghanistan on Aug. 6, 2011.

Many times over the past three years, I have been asked what drove my son to choose his particular career. What made him want to be a Navy SEAL? My answer is simple.

Aaron Vaughn was a man who possessed the courage to acknowledge evil. And evil, once truly acknowledged, demands response. Perhaps this is why so few are willing to look it in the eye. It is much simpler — much safer — to look the other way.

That is, unless you are the leader of the Free World.

As Commander-in-Chief, your actions — or lack thereof — Mr. President, cost lives. As you bumble about in your golf cart, slapping on a happy face and fist-pounding your buddies, your cowardly lack of leadership has left a gaping hole — not only in America’s security — but the security of the entire globe. Your message has come across loud and clear, sir: You are not up to this job. You know it. We know it. The world knows it.

Please vacate the people’s house and allow a man or woman of courage and substance to seize the reigns of this out-of-control thug-fest and regain the balance we, America, have provided throughout our great history.

Thanks to your “leadership” from whatever multi-million dollar vacation you happen to be on at any given moment, the world is in chaos. What’s been gained, you’ve lost. What’s been lost, you’ve decimated. You’ve demolished our ability to hold the trust of allies. You’ve made a mockery of the title “President.” And you’ve betrayed the nation for which my son and over 1.3 million others have sacrificed their very lives.

But this should come as no surprise, since your wife uttered a vile statement on Feb. 18, 2008, during the primary campaign — one that speaks volumes of your true convictions. “For the first time in my adult life, I am really proud of my country,” she said.

I am sure my deceased son thanks you for that, Mrs. Obama. Oh, and you’re welcome.

Never in my lifetime have I witnessed such despair and such growing fear that the world’s last best hope, America, has finally been dismantled. Perhaps the better word is transformed — fundamentally transformed. Come to think of it, it’s become difficult — if not impossible — to believe things haven’t gone exactly as you planned, Mr. President.

Amazingly, in five short years, your administration has lurched from one disaster to another. You spearheaded the ambitious rush to end the wars in both Iraq and Afghanistan — with no plan on how to do so effectively. Also, the release of “the Taliban five” in exchange for one American — without consulting Congress — is also on your shoulders.

You have been at the helm during unprecedented national security leaks — including, but not limited to the outing of SEAL Team VI on the Bin laden raid, the outing of the Pakistani doctor who provided the intelligence for that raid, the outing of Afghanistan’s CIA station chief, and the outing of your personal “kill list” to make you look tough. In addition, 75 percent of American deaths in Afghanistan and 83 percent of Americans-wounded-in-action have occurred on your watch, according to icasualties.org.

And now, we have this recent, heinous event: the beheading of an American citizen by a barbaric organization you foolishly referred to as “the JV team” in your statements to the New Yorker magazine in January.

You, sir, are the JV team. It’s time for you to step down and allow a true leader to restore our honor and protect our sons and daughters.

America has always been exceptional. And she will be again. You, Mr. President, are a bump in our road.

Sir, I am sorry for the loss of your son.

I am sorry for the service personnel because the politicians who think in a war you need "Rules of Engagement" and have to ask permission to return fire to someone trying to kill you.

We have indecisive, incompetent, liberal, US despising, unqualified, leeches in our Presidents House. They suck the good out of our country and spit it on the ground. Neiher BHO nor his "I deserve everything" wife should be citizens if he actually has some ligitimate proof.

We should turn over any prisoners, after covering them in pigs blood and alcohol to the women fighters and girls they have tortured so they my send them on their way to 'HELL" according to the "Koran".

It will take years to correct his disasterous and stupid actions egged on by ignorant assistants....but we must reclaim our USA ...and we will do so...SO HELP US GOD!

I logged in just to + your post WHN. After just reading that a 2'nd journalist was beheaded, I have to wonder, " What would Reagan do right now? "

Thank you, Bob. :)  It's a great question... WWRD?!  Given his philosophy of "Peace through Strength", we probably wouldn't even be in this humiliating situation.  Those of us who knew and loved President Reagan, remember his confident leadership as comforting and inspiring.  The only thing obama inspires is disgust, fear and a whole lot of WTF!  :blink: I for one, can't wait until the pendulum swings back toward sanity... we'll probably never have the honor of being graced by another Reagan... but maybe the next president will have enough of a clue to ponder... WWRD?

BobCoss... You got me thinkin'... WWRD?  Then this gem landed in my lap today. ;)

Need a foreign policy strategy? Here’s Ronald Reagan’s from 34 years ago

In light of the ongoing events in the Middle East from the bloodshed in Syria, Iraq, Libya and Israel, to nuclear negotiations with Iran, and the march throughout the world of Islamic supremacism and a revanchist Russia, we thought it instructive and illuminating to look at what Reagan wrote about defeating the enemies that he was to inherit as president.

The following excerpt comes from a Reagan speech entitled “PEACE,” delivered on August 18, 1980 at the Veteran of Foreign Wars Convention in Chicago Illinois. The transcription of the speech is written below as compiled in the indispensable “Reagan, In His Own Hand,” with all handwritten strikethroughs and typed bracketed addendums courtesy of Ronald Reagan. We have bolded certain relevant sections for emphasis.

While the threats Reagan discusses do not precisely parallel what America faces today, undeniably the principles, wisdom and spirit that animate Reagan’s words make this speech vital reading, whether for the most hawkish hawk or dovish dove.

PEACE

"It has always struck me as odd that you who have known at first hand the ugliness and agony of war are so often blamed for war by those who parade for peace.

I think the answer is obvious. Having known war, you are in the forefront of those who know that peace is not obtained or preserved by wishing and weakness. You have consistently urged maintenance of a defense capability that provides a margin of safety for America. There is no such margin today..."

Too long to post but a really great read...

I think Reagan demonstrated exactly what he would do now when he sent our Air Force, Navy, and Marines to Libya and bombed (amongst other things) Muammar Gaddafi's residence after Gaddafi claimed responsibilty for blowing up a disco and killing 40 Americans.  Even though Gaddafisurvived, he caused us no more trouble.

 

We could use someone like the Gipper now.
