Politics has always been a pretty shady business (believe me, I’ve seen it first hand and up close), but, we have now reached new lows that I never thought the American public would accept.
Maybe some of the right just don’t understand (or more likely don’t care) what morals and ethics actually are, so below I’ve listed some definitions that they might want to study. I just don’t want them to be able to claim ignorance of the facts when their judgement time comes.

- that branch of philosophy dealing with values relating to human conduct, with respect to the rightness and wrongness of certain actions and to the goodness and badness of the motives and ends of such actions.
