I live in Fremont, NE.

As maybe some of you are aware from the recent national news coverage, we have joined the ranks of American cities that have chosen to make it ‘more illegal’ to exist within the borders of our town without documentation of citizenship.

I posted last week, and shared some personal letters from a good friend in Sweden.

I shared with my friend how discouraged and angry I had become with the 'fight' to get necessary social reforms enacted here. Here is his reply. (Although you have to track through some grammer issues, it is so worth the effort.)

It is poignant, sincere, and honest. Hopefully, you will also feel strengthened (as I was) after hearing my friends perspective.

I have made good friends with a man from Sweden. We made our connection through a knife forum (I make custom knives). Over the past year, we have discussed many things, from the election to health care. My friend follows US news, is very educated, and is about 62 years old.

You may struggle a bit with his written English, but please know I admire this man, as I only can speak and write ONE language!

Here is how he sees us...

This morning, on my commute to work (in ‘red state’ NE), I again made the mistake of turning on the radio to a popular local AM radio station. The hosts were taking a small diversion into the political arena and played a heavily edited sound bite from one of BHO’s recent events. To paraphrase, it intimated that more gas could be saved in the US if people would just properly inflate their tires that would be gained by offshore drilling. The show’s host then, in disgust, stated that Obama was obviously "spectacularly under qualified" to be President.

Today, I traded e-mails with an old friend. In the e-mail, I made reference to living in "Obamaha", as BHO is speaking in my home town today.

Much time has passed since I last spoke to my friend, and in her e-mail, she asked the simple question "Are you an Obama fan?".

For some reason, too much work, too little sleep, fed up, scared, or all of the aforementioned, I took off on a very passionate 'rant' in my letter to my friend.

Follow me below the jump.....for it's entertainment value, as you watch a middle-aged, reformed republican go 'high and right'.
