The Politicians Got One Right
It’s not often that politicians push politics aside and act correctly. You have to go all the way back to September 12, 2001 to find the last time politicians from both parties acted like they should. The difference this time is that the politicians have put politics on the back burner, the media and the American people have not.
The media is paying attention to Sarah Palin’s old “crosshairs” ad with targets over congressional districts in seats held by Democrats that McCain and Palin won in 2008. What people should be concentrating on instead is that there are mentally ill people all around us. Politics will not cure mental illness – caring compassionate people who know how to work with people with mental illnesses will.
This one time we should follow the politicians’ lead and do what they are doing. Put the politics away, mourn for the dead and pray for those still alive.

I understand that but where does it take us?
It was supposed to take us to a better country, but they are back to being politicians.
