The Democrats Have No Morals

If immoral is the opposite of moral, what is moral? Webster defines it thus:

Main Entry: mor·al
Function: adjective
Etymology: Middle English, from Anglo-French, from Latin moralis, from mor-, mos custom
Date: 14th century
1 a: of or relating to principles of right and wrong in behavior : ethical (moral judgments) b: expressing or teaching a conception of right behavior (a moral poem) c: conforming to a standard of right behavior d: sanctioned by or operative on one's conscience or ethical judgment (a moral obligation) e: capable of right and wrong action (a moral agent)2: probable though not proved : virtual (a moral certainty)3: perceptual or psychological rather than tangible or practical in nature or effect (a moral victory) (moral support)
— mor·al·ly - adverb

JCS Chairman Gen Peter Pace has come under fire recently for stating that he felt homosexuality to be immoral. As I understand the above definition, one’s sense of morals comes from their beliefs. At some point in his life, Gen Pace undoubtedly came to the conclusion that the homosexual lifestyle was not compatible with his beliefs. His statements further suggest that he believes that forcing that lifestyle upon heterosexual troops is a detriment to the good order and discipline of a military unit. I’m not trying to put words in his mouth. That’s just the way that I interpret what he said. Here’s the quote:

I believe homosexual acts between two individuals are immoral and that we should not condone immoral acts.

I do not believe the United States is well served by a policy that says it is OK to be immoral in any way.


MSM wants to immediately castigate him and portray him to be a homophobe. This only serves to support Ann Coulter’s comments that the left wants to make it illegal to be a Republican. If I could, I would alter the statement to say that the left wants to make it illegal to be anything other than left. Be it Christian, Jew, conservative, libertarian, or anything else not left.

Now Hillary and Obama have come out saying that it is not immoral to be a homosexual. Apparently the polling data came in and they realized that they would lose the contributions of the gay-left if they didn’t say something to condemn the General. What the two Democrats exhibit though, is that they have no morals. Everything is permissible as long as it doesn’t impact them personally.

Gen Pace made a statement that demonstrated his beliefs. Those beliefs are in tune with traditional Judeo-Christian beliefs that our country was founded upon. The attacks from the anti-military left are simply a convenient tool to attack the military establishment. Mrs. Clinton and Mr. Obama have demonstrated that they hold no such beliefs. I can only conclude that they are themselves devoid of morals.
