Gee, anyone wanna take a wild guess?
"I've got plenty of sins that I'm not going to share with anyone else."

-- Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), quoted by Politico, when asked to comment on Sen. John Ensign's (R-NV) admission of an affair with a staffer.

War is sin

Since we've been so into religion these days:
War is always about betrayal. It is about betrayal of the young by the old, of cynics by idealists, and of soldiers and Marines by politicians. Society's institutions, including our religious institutions, which mold us into compliant citizens, are unmasked. This betrayal is so deep that many never find their way back to faith in the nation or in any god. They nurse a self-destructive anger and resentment, understandable and justified, but also crippling. Ask a combat veteran struggling to piece his or her life together about God and watch the raw vitriol and pain pour out. They have seen into the corrupt heart of America, into the emptiness of its most sacred institutions, into our staggering hypocrisy, and those of us who refuse to heed their words become complicit in the evil they denounce.
That was the last paragraph. Now please go read all the other ones that came before it.
