As long as any public building bears homage to Ted Kennedy or Robert Byrd democrats have nobody moral right to criticize any republican

I believe we all have not just the right, but the duty, to compare ourselves with what the Lord hoped when He created us. But the answer also has to be God’s answer, rather than man’s answer. All we can do on our own is band into worldly groups, ostracize, and blame. We can’t conceive of a positive-sum game.

The people who are in the position to know better often draw the most intense gaze of God. Ted Kennedy might never have known any better. He might have thought that political esteem was the only esteem worth having, and that’s what would cause his trysts to be forgiven. Roy Moore does know better, and so he gets the third degree. OK, you think the Ten Commandments are so peachy? Get ready to be scored against them.

And therein may even yet lay a snare for Roy, if he doesn’t loosen up a bit. For one thing, it’s overly grandiose to presume that the famous Ten are the basis of any secular law. They are a superset.

More applicable in this regard is something known as the Noahide Law. Respect towards God was expected, but frank belief and love not commanded. Certain other things were expected. And that’s it.

Roy seems to have passed the no-adultery test just fine, at least externally, and with a charitable view about his formerly divorced wife.

But his enemies won’t quit there, even after he is elected. They will keep stepping up to test, test, test him.

“...democrats have no moral right to criticize any republican...”

Haven’t you heard?

Democrats can do anything they want and get away with it, with no problem, no investigation, no recognition in any way that anything illegal occurred.

Didn’t you know that?

/SARC/

IMHO
