This world is turning upside down. Political characters abound! It's hard to tell right from wrong, when you’re not standing on solid ground. God Help the USA!

Political Hypocrisy A political character, appeared on my TV the other day. So I listened very attentively, to what he had to say. He yelled and screamed and jumped up and down. He said the other party was immoral and they should be put-down! Yes, put them on trail and then put them in jail. They tortured the terrorist, until they turned pale! He said this was deeply immoral and it just was not right. It bothered his conscience and kept him up all night. But when he was asked about a fetus still alive and punching it’s head. He did not have an answer and his face turned beet red. So Mr. Politician, you can kill unborn babies and sleep the night away. But when asked about our moral justice, you have nothing to say? Dear God in Heaven, what kind of hypocrisy does our county face? What can one call this way of thinking? It’s a national disgrace! Amen Copyright © 2009 by John Michael Domino All Rights Reserved.

Good point. Abortion is never the way to get out of an ugly mess. Better to guaranshe his wages for the next 20 yrs, and indexed to meet the cost of living increases. And if he doesn't want to work! I'm pretty much in favor of the chain-gangs of old. And torture! don't get me started. Thanks, J'nia <> <

You have some valid (but disturbing) points my friend. As Shakespeare penned (quilled?) "A rose by any other name would smell the same." We're not talking roses here and the smell is anything but sweet.

Whatever happened to government by the people, for the people? It seems the only ones running the country are the minority ... God help us, indeed.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

Very relevant John. Actually the practice is worldwide and man has become stoically indifferent to unborn life, he can pray the rosary and throw aborted babies with the garbage or from speeding taxis. It's both political and religious hypocrisy, it's done in my "religious" country.

A politician is incapable of being a moral person. It really doesn't matter which side you are on. They are all the same. ~ Sara

Some worthy thougts here, John. I wish laws and such matters as you've mentioned above was put before the voters. I'm not sure representation is very representative anymore of what the majority of Americans want; it allows no choices (or votes on extremely important issues) by the constituency.
