President of the Left: Obama to change Mt. McKinley's name to Denali

McKinley
Barack Obama isn't my president. Yep, I said it. He's not even the president of a majority of Americans--Obama's nothing but a clan leader of the far-left who by a series of flukes found himself living in the White House.

Here's his latest assault on mainstream America and tradition.

From AP:
President Barack Obama will change the name of North America's tallest mountain peak from Mount McKinley to Denali, the White House said Sunday, a major symbolic gesture to Alaska Natives on the eve of the president's historic visit to Alaska.

By renaming the peak Denali, an Athabascan word meaning "the high one," Obama waded into a sensitive and decades-old conflict between residents of Alaska and Ohio. Alaskans have informally called the mountain Denali for years, but the federal government recognizes its name invoking the 25th president, William McKinley, who was born in Ohio and assassinated early in his second term.

Mt. McKinley has been named such since 1898--it's named for William McKinley, our 25th president and a Republican who was assassinated in 1901. He was the last Civil War veteran to serve as president. The Spanish-American War was the most notable event of his four-and-half years in office.

Look for Speaker of the House John Boehner, an Ohioan, to do nothing to stop Obama. Again.
