Description | The clamor over Congressman Bob Schaffer's announcement to honor his pledge to serve only three terms in the U.S. House is deafening. One might conclude that integrity among Congressmen is rare.
Schaffer is lambasted by Democrat Party leaders for making the promise and by Republican Party leaders for honoring it. Perhaps both groups can learn about character and principle from Bob. The attacks are reminiscent of those against 'Honest' John Shafroth, 18th governor and foremost political reformer in Colorado history. |
