It might be the best thing for us all if we started this new year with a careful examination of our own faults. It's too easy to point at "those crooked politicians" and shout that they are traitors. Well, yes, they may well be, but they could not have worked their way into all the positions of power if we had not sat on our rumps and let them do it. Our tolerance is tacit acceptance. Judgement begins in God's own house. We need to start with ourselves if we are going to achieve any worthwhile and lasting changes to the nation.
