If a tree falls in the woods

Jump to Comments

I’ve recently had to deal with a “matter” that has just dredged up all the old nasty bits of life from the past few years, returning  a nice anger in my gut and a slight taste of bile in my mouth. Just when I was getting used to shhhhh quiet in my life, whamo comes the garbage once more.

All, as result ,of someone’s “character” while no one was looking.

If you don’t get caught does it count?

Yes it does my friends. Be it adultery or betrayal, or cheating or lying, or….well you pick your indiscretion of  choice.

How timely to discover this story on the un-aired Rev. Wright ad that the McCain campaign didn’t use during the election season. McCain had called the Wright issue “off-limits”  and thus the ad didn’t run. I think it shouldn’t have run because it is hypocrisy as an art form.

The voice over lady says “Character, it matters. Even when no one is watching.”

Yes sir re dee dee.

Character-as in John McCain’s adultery maybe? No one was looking then-except maybe the-well-the lady friend. Or maybe his Keating dealings? Or his gambling? Or or or.. Or his running mate’s laundry list of unethical behaviors?

Now I’m not saying that Senator Obama is without his own skeletons-no one is.

I’m just saying, Character does count especially when no one is looking.

And those who think no one has been looking at them shouldn’t throw stones-just in case.
