Responsibility and accountability, not apologies
Enough with politicians "apologizing", whether it's meant or it's mockery.

People who are damaging the country need to FIX what they've damaged, return the money they've "reallocated", do duties to the families of soldiers who've died.

The Christian manner of apology is fine, but with the level of damage they've done, a "get out of jail free" apology doesn't cut it. Time for them to work for the country, as opposed to against it, as they've been doing.

1. as they've been doing.
for the past few thousand years.

Someday, maybe, someday, leaders will actually work for the people they lead. Unfortunately, I don't see that happening any time soon. :-(

2. Guess I'll be back in 1,000 years to post this again ;-)
Just remember it in the meantime, okay? Little things like this are juxtaposition to how the "leaders" act, that if you talk about it, the "leaders" are diminished.
