Losing faith in redemption

Well, the movie actor playing Governor of California has shown us his character. Choosing political expediency over moral leadership, he has denied clemency to Stanley Tookie Williams.

Sorry, future. Arnie doesn't want to alienate the right-wing when he's thinking of running for a job he has proven himself woefully unsuited to. So we play into the hands of our enemies at home and abroad and again demonstrate to the world our seeming lack of moral character as a nation.

So short sighted. There was a time when leaders led.

I'm going to have to consider delaying moving back to California until after Arnie gets the boot.
