Signs of character

September 8, 2020 by Guest Post

By David Welch, Hamilton

Have you ever thought how nice it would be if somehow you could tell in advance the content of a person’s character before you ever had any interaction with them? Forewarned is forearmed, right?  

Well, we are in a unique time when many people are openly revealing their character with signs in their yards and bumper stickers on their cars. When you see a “Trump/Pence” bumper sticker or a “Make America Great Again” yard sign, the displayer is saying “I’m OK with lying. I’m OK with cheating. I’m OK with stealing.”

Good to know.

    “I’m OK with lying. I’m OK with cheating. I’m OK with stealing.”

    I’m a woman hispanic and from the time I opened my eyes in Texas and begun to understand that the Democrat’s were just keeping us hispanic from moving forward …was the day that I told myself I’m no dummy and nobody is going to make me feel that way……My parents raised me to believe that lying/cheating/ and stealing were mortal sins. so lady I take offense that you call me a lying cheating stealing woman……..Trump told us the truth about the bad Mexicans ( I know for fact that bad Mexicans are coming to USA) cheating and stealing were done by Obama when he said we can keep our health insurance and doctors well, no we didn’t my doctors went away and the cost escalated , it wasn’t until I reached 65 that things got bit better however the doctors didn’t ……I see everyday good doctors are leaving and there comments ” can’t feed my family on what I’m making now”. My doctor in Texas said lady what would you do if your boss said you’ll only get 1/3 of what you made before or 1/2 of what you made? wouldn’t you go find another job that paid you what you need to raise your family? that is what Obama left us and he did ly and cheap us out of Healthcare….. Hilary said who cares if they are Killing Americans (that was on national tv). so don’t call me a lying/cheating/ stealing person…….
