Our Future Leaders and Morality

Is there morality in government? It is expected that our politicians be moral and of good character and integrity. But given the power unlawfully and unconstitutionally usurped by our elected officials, can it be said that any member of Congress fits within a recognized set of moral parameters? After all, it is the moral nature of our legislators which must affect the life, dreams, and hopes of not only this generation but the generations to come.

The amount of power which a lazy and cowardly American public has permitted our politicians to take for themselves is staggering. But what else could be expected from citizens who look to government as mother and caregiver? There are many who no longer assume the least bit of responsibility for their own lives. This leads to the rise of an elite dictatorship which, using the best of excuses, such as “it’s for the children,” continues to take away liberty and manipulate our every activity for “the public good.”  How eagerly these power hungry political hacks grasp at even the slightest chance for additional authority.

As a Constitutional Republic, this nation is not to be ruled by a mob.  The demands of society must align with the best for the country. We can no longer allow those who abuse the system, whether citizens or non-citizens, to continue a life of spending other people’s money.

Euphemisms and the words of propaganda influence public perception. Illegal aliens become undocumented citizens. Everything is spun for the purpose of making the outrageous palatable. If necessary, an outright lie becomes the rule of the day. Does anyone not remember the promises made for Obamacare. And yet, even knowing we were lied to, Americans have done nothing to demand correction of the most expensive boondoggle in the nation’s history. Democrat voters I understand; they are lemmings that will go over the cliff still believing the lies of their party, but what of Republicans? American voters provided the GOP both houses of Congress only to find these feckless frauds siding with the most corrupt past president in our nation’s history.

We must no longer be treated like unwashed peasants by politicians interested only in re-election as they sacrifice our liberty on the altar of big government. There is no glorious Utopia at the end of this government’s promises.  The “national Interest” must no longer mean the politician’s interest. It is not necessary that the people of this country become victims, either of the government or of other people.

Deviant behavior is part of a culture leaning towards paganism, outside the normal, healthful behavior of a stable culture.

“Yes, I voted for that Democrat. Yes, I know he’s a thief and will steal from the government. I think that he will give me some of his stolen loot because I voted for him.”

There are very, very few Democrat voters who vote for Democrat politicians because they think the Democrat politicians will be the best stewards of the government treasuries.

The dirty little Democrat voters knowingly vote for thieves because they hope that they’ll get a cut of the stolen loot.

Our Future Leaders and Morality

Government immorality begins with each House Democrat candidate who ran on a platform of "reaching across the aisle" and "not being Nancy Pelosi's puppet," and then voted for Pelosi for Speaker as fast as they could.
