The Moral High Ground
08/07/18 at 14:37:54
 
With the news - that the President of the United States lied to the American people readers are no doubt wondering "where to from here?" The two schools of thought can be summed up in the choices presented through various and diverse sources, namely, move on or move out.

The "move on" crowd's argument goes something like this; 'the President admitted he made a mistake, you have your pound of flesh, now let's move on with the serious issues facing the country'. While this approach is appealing even to some of us who have little regard for the policies of this Administration, it's just not as simple as all that. The 'Move On Crowd's argument is predicated on the notion that presidents, just like the rest of us, ought to be entitled to a little privacy. This argument fails on two grounds; (A) The President made this issue public when he denied it eight months ago and (B) The President is not, by definition, 'like the rest of us'.

So we get to the other, and in my view, only school of thought remaining. For America to move on, and we must, the president must move out of the White House. Either the President should resign or be removed from office. Nothing short of this sad conclusion will suffice to restore the institution of the presidency to its former and necessary glory."


I did not write this.

You all should find out who did.....

Do you really think, that anybody, except your puppets,
that read posts here.

Are going to ‘fall’ for your ‘inference’ that,
that was recently written ?

 Is he trying to infer that it was written recently or was he trying to indicate that Pence wrote that?

 The question I get out of it is if those standards existed in the 90's, why don't they exist today?

No.  But I would hope people like you would read it, search on it and see just how hypocritical this administration is.

When people were "moving someone out" on a MORAL HIGH GROUND, Jesus responded "let he who has never sinned cast the first stone".

 Infer.  I was using the reference in the post previous to mine:

Who's morality?

Seems morality is subjective, often changing depending on who is in power.

Well ray, I didn't write the article, this sin't about my morality - I posted it for everyone else to read and get their take on it.  This is about the author now changing his morality because now his guy is in office.

How many times do I have to post about the massive hypocrisy of this administration? (that's rhetorical)
