Amazing how the best we can do is complain about the obvious after we let it go on as if there really are two sets of standards in politics. Our political standard is to remove all imperfection in our road, coiled to our own strike at the moment of accusation. Theirs is to embrace the tailor made positives of some actor like character one whose glaring negatives are completely trivialized.
We continue preaching to each other about all these things we need to do, ideas that would benefit every American, wonderful but we forget to explain why. When America succeeds the world prospers in her wake. It is not a wake of occupation, oppression, or violence unless you stand against us. The standard we hold each other to is the same standard every respectable nation in this world honors. Leaders in nations of communist tyranny escape their critics in much the same way as do Democrats in postions of power here in America.
This nation did not come into being because a bunch of liars, hypocrites, and communal minded individuals came together with their botox and high priced salon looks to create a government that levels everyone to a set of standards. Our founding fathers saw this day because we are on the edge of what they fought and died to prevent. The constitution was written by men who risked the lives of their families traveling in big wooden sailboats across the Atlantic Ocean to freedom. They created a goverment that gives every American the right to succeed or fail without limits. Knowing that the only driver for success is the healthy fear of failure. They inspired some of the greatest minds in history to invent thing they could have only imagined.
As our political representatives huddle nervously in the tent of the "new media", we the people expect that Blago would be held to our standards. All laws are written to apply to every person no matter his/her affiliations. I could list dozens of top ranking politicians who have taken refuge under the media's cloak but not one was a Republican.
When you are trying to break down the wall of deceit one has to take advantage of every fisure in it's face. We are running from an enemy we can defeat and fighting amungst ourselves over simple peeves.
Our GOP will never rise above this point without reconciling our honor to one another. The time for paroting and acting compasionate must come to an end. The cause of consevatism has never been served in bipartisanship.
