To set the record straight, and to let Pres. Bush get back to his job as President, I am willing to assume the mantle of the World's Biggest Hypocrite. Here are my qualifications:
Up until my 30's, all I cared about was my own hedonistic pleasure. Today, my pleasure is derived from being a husband and father to 3 great kids (two teenagers and a 5 month old). More and more energy is exerted to supervise a blossoming, and typically headstrong, 15 year old young lady.
As a younger lad, I thought pro-choice was a good thing. Today, I am ardently anti-choice on abortion.
As a young father, I agreed with my wife that we would never deliberately embarrass our children in public. Today, when they've exhausted my patience while we're out in public, I unabashedly do my 'Happy Dance', whereupon the two teenagers cower in mortified embarrassment.
Up until a few years ago, I barely paid lip service to the blessings the Lord has bestowed upon me. Now I look forward to attending Sunday Mass with my family, and the other church activities that we participate in.
There it is. I've laid just a few of my qualifications on the table. Now can we let Pres. Bush get back to work?
