<<Politics as an avenue for collective moral reformation? I'd say stick to religion. Politics isn't pretty today, but how that's all Clinton's fault is beyond me.>>

Far from all Clinton's fault. As you know, I live in Colorado. Somebody dug holes all over the Rocky Mountains looking for gold and such. I am not interested in who is at fault for the idea of digging wholes and not covering them up. If I don't do something about the ones I am confronted with, I could wake up and find one of my daughters at the bottom of a shaft some day. The point is I don't like to think about them getting shafted by liars either. When I come across one, well you know...

It doesn't make him the only one. It doesn't mean if the problem is corrected now, it will never come up again. It doesn't even make bc the scape goat for all the others. It simply says when the opportunity to curtail lying presents it self we have some responsibility to ourselves, our children, and society at large.

<<Religions differ on morals.>>

Are you sure? Which ones? Murder, lying, adultery, stealing, charity, kindness, consideration, compassion...

I thought there was general agreement on which ones were standards of right and which were standards of wrong.
