Well Easter is over but we sure do not have any repentance from our politicians for their behavior. We all know that sex and corruption have always been a part of our electoral process both nationally and locally. Still, it wasn't that long ago when I remember that if a pol was exposed as a sinner, a corrupt sexually active person with someone other than their spouse, that would be the death knell for their campaign. Perhaps Clinton started it with the idea that sex is not important to one's affairs of state. The media has always covered up for Democrats and we know that since FDR, JFK and even LBJ. Any Pub caught in a tough situation has always been given the bum's rush by the MSM. Harding, Nixon, they even tried with IKE, even poor Jerry Ford and his clumsiness, Reagan for just being Reagan, and of course, the two Bushies. The media covered for Bubba and boy howdy they took after Foley, Craig, but forgave Studds, Frank, and would have covered but were forced to pursue Obama and his nutter pastor, Patterson of NY and Spitzer before him and now we have the dunce in Detroit, old Kwame! Well Foley is gone, Craig is gone, Frank is still around as is Ted Kennedy, Chris Dodd and other sex and sandwich guys!! Well, it seems that character may or may not count anymore. It will depend by November if any more scandals rise up to tar and feather any of these politicians. Yeah, I know Ben Franklin was roue. But over all, the Founders while imperfect knew that they were in the serious business of Independence and victory and drawing up a Constitution. These people today fret over driver's licenses for illegals, gay rights, abortion rights, taking away guns from legal American citizens, legalization of drugs like Mary Jane! Boy what a difference in the morality, the authority from which these people draw inspiration. And to be frank, the attack on our Judeo-Christian heritage began when liberals tried contextual criticism of the Bible in the 1890's in Germany and liberalism crept across to the USA with its socialist pacifism undermining American values such as free enterprise, individualism, a demoratic republic and less government. As liberalism undermined our systems, education, government, economics, it also undermined our morals with secular humanistic relativism. It is bearing bitter fruit today when sin , yes, sin, no longer seems to matter to voters or so it seems. We get what we deserve.
