Letters to the Editor - Herald & Review
We need better leadership
Posted by: Tim on February 8, 2010 at 2:30PM UMDT

The Supreme Court over-turned a century long law that in his opinion will open the flood gates for millions of dollars for special interests from foreign corporations.
President Obama said the public has tightened their financial belt, and govern-ment should do the same.
Remember just before he left for Christmas vacation, Christmas Eve., he congratu-lated the Senate for passing their version of the health care bill, even though they passed a provision that will cost the country hundreds of millions of dollars in order to get the vote of a Nebraska Senator. A few weeks before that, the House passed a provision that will cost $300 million for the vote of a Lou-isiana Congress member.
In his message, he says it’s time to tighten our belts, even the government. Is this hypocrisy at its worst and isn’t purchasing votes like this ‘bribery?’ Is bribery unlawful?
With corruption, evil, law-lessness, etc. maybe we should leave the Guantanamo prisoners just where they are and occupy the prison cells in the prison near Chicago with the Washington politicians. Just maybe they would re-ceive a much needed learning experience and learn how to behave and get along with each other.
The Apostle Paul came to the troubled church at Corinth, not with excellence of speech or wisdom, declar-ing to them the testimony of God.
With all due respect which is America in need of most – leadership as shown by the Apostle Paul or the leader-ship of our President?
