One of the most noble political statement I heard is from John Macain, the republican nominee.....he said "I rather lose an election then let America lose the war"...he said it sinceriely....when faced with a very popular choice of calling the troops back from Iraq and then win the support of millions...he did the opposite...he supported the surge...even though he knew it was very unpopular and would cause him votes and even the nomination, nevertheless he voted and supported what he believed was right even though it was hugely unpopular and proved to be a costly decision.....
He put his nation first and his own interests, second.
Compare him with our PM......our man is but a puny weak person...fiddling while the whole nation spins off the tangent...
Many times when facing with a choice of doing the right but unpopular thing or the wrong but popular thing...he chose the popular one.....leaving the country to suffer the consequences of the bad choices he made....
Always putting himself first and the country second....thats' the perception he gave us...
