United States Army Promotes the First Woman to the Rank of Four Star General

 Today the United States army promoted Ann E. Dunwoody to the rank of four star general. She is the first woman ever to rise to the rank of four star general. I would like to take this time to offer my congratulations to General Dunwoody. She is proof that through hard work and determination anything can be accomplished with the right attitude in America.

 Within the last week there were two milestones reached in this country, if that is the right word. First Barack Obama became the first black man to become president, in my opposition to Obama and all of his policies, and everything that he stands for I neglected to acknowledge the historic aspect of his campaign and victory. I do so now. Barack Obama has proved that America has moved past race. And now we have the first woman ever to reach the rank of four star general.

 Both of these are examples of how America truly is the land of opportunity.
