The "Awe" of Washington

My beautiful wife and I are in Washington D.C. for a few days and it is so beautiful here! Since I was a boy here with my dad when he argued before the Supreme Court--I always get just as inspired and excited about being an American everytime I come here.

Today as we were walking around the Capital Building--I could not help but think of all the discraced politicians who have served in that incredible building where so many important and historical decisions were made. And you would think that just being given the honor to serve in that magnificent place--and be given the trust of thousands of people back home--would be enough to keep anyone from sacrificing their integrity.

Those elected to public office--need to remember where they came from and where they have been sent.
