The last words JFK wrote for an undelivered speech: “Our duty is not the preservation of political power but the preservation of peace and freedom. So let us not be petty when our cause is so great. Let us not quarrel amongst ourselves when our nation’s future is at stake.”
@MittRomney @lisamurkowski @SenAlexander @SenCoryGardner P.S. In other words, the issue on the table has nothing to do with politics. Will you stand up for the constitution and the rule of law? Consider a world in which our legal framework is toothless. Reflect on your ancestors and their sacrifices. What about your children's future?
@MittRomney @lisamurkowski @SenAlexander @SenCoryGardner P.P.S. If you allow it to be a party line vote, the precedent set will be fatal. The first schisms in the Roman republic before its collapse are telling: political norms fell apart; senators took disingenuous positions; corruption; an election was rigged.
