Moral Character

<blockquote>Two Democrats seeking to defeat Sen. Conrad Burns, R-Mont., in next year's elections have been illegally soliciting campaign contributions through prerecorded telephone messages.<br />n<br />nJon Tester of Big Sandy and State Auditor John Morrison have used message systems to call people at home and ask them to contribute to their campaigns. Both Democrats are vying for their party's nomination to challenge Burns in 2006.</blockquote><br />n<br />nWhat does this say about who they are, what they will do, and the moral character of Jon Tester and John Morrison that they proudly <a href="http://www.bozemandailychronicle.com/articles/2005/06/17/news/02phonecalls.txt">violate the law</a>? Not much if you ask me.<br />n<br />n<b>Character is like a tree and reputation like its shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing. Abraham Lincoln</b>
