Self sacrifice is not in our politicians' lexicon today. <br /><br />There are always exceptions, but in a larger picture with more pols and more time, I think it speaks to leadership in so many ways. <br /><br />Pols today use self interest in a magnitude that trades short term gain even for the destruction of their own country. <br /><br />Peter Statement Analysis Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13607372649929274491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7164794708270892518.post-84258331377056739362017-07-31T08:41:31.623-04:002017-07-31T08:41:31.623-04:00Marines like these two are why are country is grea...Marines like these two are why are country is great.

Left her dogs behind.<br />She asked him to go get fish at market, he came back 2 hours later and she was gone. It sound suspicious to me.<br />He didnt call police for couple days.

It was presented slightly differently but had most of the same details. <br /><br />I agree with Peter that there should be a military background in a good politician (good and politician shouldn't be used together). <br /><br />There are still many bad politicians with military backgrounds. John Kerry and John McStain come to mind. <br /><br />A large problem with military, especially the flag officer rank is that the system is politicized and the best often don't make it anywhere near the rank of General.<br />General P.

I didn't get that uh oh feeling.<br /> But, for me, the most important thing is that out of 993 words, he uses the pronoun "I" just 10 times and "myself" once.
