Rep. John Murtha,(D)--PA, one of the most "ethically strained" members of Congress just passed away today.
It's not for me to judge, but this, following so closely on the heels of the death of Sen. Ted Kennedy, makes me wonder if we're not seeing some sort of divine housecleaning where our government is concerned.
I'm just saying... but if I were a politician who wasn't doing right by the people, I might consider changing my ways. These things always seem to come in threes, ya know. Meantime, I wouldn't be getting onto airplanes with the likes of Nancy Pelosi, Alan Mollohan, Charlie Rangel, or numerous other members of Congress.
On a serious note, my sincere sympathies go out to the Murtha family.
You know it's funny you should say that about 'divine housecleaning', because everynight when I say my prayers I ask the Lord to deliver us from this evil that has taken hold of our country. Things that make you go hmmmm..

ReplyDeleteWhile it is sad that he has passed, I hope those he represented won't squander the opportunity to choose a more appropriate leader.
