” When men refuse to stand up to their duties, obligations, and responsibilities.... well, you get the GOP-e; and you also get the Dems, ready, willing, and salivating to capitalize on the lack of honor and lack of courage of their “colleagues across the aisle”.”
Why I am NOT enthusiastic. My fear is the first thing they will do is pass amnesty. Then nothing else will matter.
Without realizing it, I think I paraphrased Ayn Rand with that comment...
“When men reduce their virtues to the approximate, then evil acquires the force of an absolute; when loyalty to an unyielding purpose is dropped by the virtuous, it’s picked up by scoundrels - and you get the indecent spectacle of a cringing, bargaining, traitorous good and a self-righteously uncompromising evil.”
