So there’s this video that has been circulating involving Senator Max Baucus:
After watching this video, yes, he is definitely drunk on the Senate floor. But this is probably only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Senator Max Baucus. He has been married and divorced twice, the second time he was caught dating his office manager. He also no longer really lives in the state he supposedly represents. He has become a true inside the beltway madman.
But this is just one of the leaders within the Senate. While this one was stupid and irresponsible enough to get caught on the floor plastered, I’m sure the others have just as much vice as he does. The problem is that they don’t seem to understand what integrity really is.
Integrity is doing the right thing when no one else is watching. It means you will always do what is right and moral in any situation, regardless of the consequences for doing it or because you might face the consequences of doing the wrong thing. To be a success in the business world, you have to have a high level of integrity because no one does regular business with a scumbag.
Apparently the rules are different in government. If you get into office, you don’t need to do the right thing when no one is watching, because that’s how you get ahead when the institution is run by scumbags.
I know, you’re thinking, he’s drunk, so what? After all, everyone gets drunk every now and then and it makes him more human. The problem is that he’s drunk on the job here. And this job is more important right now than most other jobs because of the power and influence that Senators wield over the individual. How many special interests could have coerced him into passing legislation that he wouldn’t have signed off on when he was sober?
In any case, it really illustrates the views held by Senators. They don’t care enough about their jobs to take it seriously, especially this Healthcare Bill, and it’s all a joke to them. Between all the whoring going on with Congressfolk “on the fence” to the thousands of pages of rules and regulations that nobody bothers to read, it makes me wonder why these assholes haven’t been strung up and beaten to death.
These people who supposedly represent us have no ounce of integrity or any sense of right and wrong. And too many morons out there want to give them more power over our lives.
Do you really want these assholes to hold sway over your life? Your property?
