I'm impressed

Thought I'd start a new thread about what kind of people impress you. I'm not impressed because someone has money (I'm sure kolan isn't either) .

I know a few, very few men who are Christian men of integrity . Their word is good without exception . Men who are married to a wife who is supporting, never saying anything bad about their husband . Men who have a wife that when they leave the room, the woman is the same person as she was before. Men who come from a stable family who in turn raise a stable family where the couple is happy, their children admire their father and mother and say so. Men whose children also love their siblings and act accordingly. You wouldn't think this is all that uncommon but I only know of one or two men like this personally. These are the men that impress me. Why can't we find a politician like this?

Wonderful question, RR. People of integrity and good family values are usually people with HUMILITY with few thoughts of personal GREED and are usually free of EGOTISTICAL thoughts and actions.

Politicians are NOT of these qualities, in my opinion. They are run by ego and greed and are full of self, self, self. These people seek out the limelight and will do anything it takes to get their name out and get elected. They can sell themselves to boosters and "for a price" will remember those boosters once elected.

Our last two presidential elections were incredibly disturbing. I don't believe that EITHER party was represented by the best candidate, but were instead represented by the candidate with the biggest campaign fund. And we, the people, should be ashamed for allowing it to happen. :oops:

Chief, for once , I agree with all except the part about the last two elections. It's been this way for as long as I can remember especially on the national scene.

I agree with you, RR. That for once I can agree with the chief. The only thing that I would add...

Anyone who found the last two elections disturbing will probably be even more disturbed in the future. They seem to be getting worse every year. The thing that really bothers me is the 'pretty boy' crap that influences the Presidential elections.

There is way too much emphasis placed on how a man looks. We have some great Presidential material that will never make it...simply because they're too damned ugly.
