I, being the smart-a$$ that I am, liked the comment below the article about Gerson being paid to write an eight grade book report.

But you have to admit that he earned an "A" on it.

Seriously, however, how often are core values seriously discussed in politics.

Seldom, if ever. Those who choose to go into politics lack core values for the most part. We have turned from electing the best to allowing power hungry little people remain in office for years and years, sometimes through generations of families.

You throw their butts out, and the newly elected appoint them to a cabinet job...and round and round it goes.
