There Is A Time To Stand And Fight!

  Someone has said the only thing that is consistent in politics is that a politician's  position on almost  any  issue will constantly change I  grow weary of politicians who say one thing and then do another. I am reminded of these words from Thomas Jefferson, he said the following;"I never believed there was one code of morality for a public and another for a private man." President Obama,  tells  the American people that leaders in government should learn to be more civil as they  conduct their political business in Washington.Yet, at the same time Obama has no problem letting his super Pac practically accuse Mitt Romney,of murder because a man's wife died after he was laid off due to his steel factory closing and he then supposedly, had no health insurance to treat her cancer. Yes, I must say that is a very civil way to treat a political opponent.
  As a Christian,  I can only imagine how hard it must be to be a Christian,  and a politician at the same time if only because those two words put together are all to often a contradiction of terms! That's why Luke 6:29 at times can be one one the hardest  verses in the Bible,  for a Christian,  to live  by. the scripture passage reads this way,"And unto him that smiteth thee on one cheek offer also the other. And him that taketh away thy cloak forbid not to take thy coat  also."
  I realize that in keeping with this principal no doubt Mitt Romney,  is trying to resist the temptation to sling political mud as it were I know he wants to take the high road and stay above the fray  and be the bigger man. In politics however,  it is much like a boxing match you can dodge and waive for a while but sooner or later your gonna get it and if you don't throw a punch you will either get beat to death or throw in the towel and stop the fight. That is why I feel Mitt,  must fight these  political smear tactics from Obama and he better find some good counter punches and soon. Mitt,  is fighting for this nations economic survival so in one sense he's fighting for all of us at least all of us with conservative economic sanity! the bottom line is Mitt had better take his own advice that he gave to Harry Reid. Mitt, better put his dukes up or Obama,  will shut him up by political knock out and this for this nation it will be lights out! As always my friends, these thoughts remain, just some words to think on.
