A Lesson From Jay Feely...

A lesson from Jay Feely…



Jay Feely missed three potentially game-winning field goals on Sunday. Despite this disgraceful debacle, his post game performance was refreshingly mature.

Before coach Coughlin could address the team, Feely stood and said,

“I'm sorry I let you down. People are going to say it's a team game and they're going to say the right things. But the fact of the matter is that you've got to come through when you have one opportunity -- much less two good opportunities."

He may not have a job for long, but he’ll have his integrity. Let this be a lesson for everybody. When you blow it, have the integrity to take responsibility. It’s ok. It won’t kill you to be humble. Truth is, it will most likely help you.

I may not want Jay Feely as a kicker on my fantasy football team, but I wouldn’t mind having someone like him as an employee, a business partner, or a friend. We all need this kind of integrity in our lives, and at one point or another we’ve all needed to be this humble.

US Senators Pull Political Stunt!

Democratic Senators brought the senate session to a halt yesterday as they unrolled a political stunt of unbelievable proportions. Senator Harry Reid called for a “secret” session to “unveil” the truth about Iraq war rationale. Reid called for the investigation about faulty intelligence to be moved along into Phase Two. What confused committee Chairman Pat Roberts most was that Phase Two has been underway for weeks. It is scheduled be rapped up early next week.

Phase One of this investigation ended with all 17 committee members in unanimous agreement that the intelligence leading to the war in Iraq was in fact not “cooked”. Phase Two is to deal with over 300 statements made by public officials to see if there were any misrepresentations made to mislead the American public.

To avoid partisan politics, Chairman Pat Roberts intends to rate these statements without identification of who made them. Democrats blocked this move, pushing to focus solely on President Bush and his administration, neglecting to investigate the dozens of Democrats who also made public statements and decisions based on the same prewar intelligence.

This protest to get the committee to start something that had been underway for weeks was an unprecedented political stunt. It grabbed headlines and the Senate minority obtained the media spotlight they wanted, but what the American public witnessed was an adolescent tantrum perpetrated by men and women who sounded more like brooding little boys and girls.



Here are some of those who made public prewar statements affirming the existance of WMD...
