By Rob Watson | HOLLYWOOD – It is the old story about the scorpion and the frog. The two needed each other to cross a river to survive.
The frog was apprehensive, knowing the scorpion had a deadly sting. The scorpion proclaimed that should the frog swim him across, he would obviously not use his lethal sting as they would both then drown.
The frog gave into this logic, agreed to take the scorpion across… half-way across, the scorpion DID sting the frog. As they were both on their way to death, the frog asked, “WHY?” The scorpion proclaimed, “I could not help it.
It is who I am.” The Republicans are the scorpions of politics. America has been the land of principles. The land of justice.
