OUR LOWLY LEADERS

The October 7 Magazine had so many interesting articles, I’m hard-pressed to pick out one for special praise. However, there is one sentence from Rabbi

Stewart Weiss’s column that I would like to comment on.

At the very end of his beautifully written “Our parent, our sovereign,” he writes, “Who among the candidates commands our awe and respect, yet at the same time elicits our love?” Who indeed? Never mind love, never mind awe; who commands our respect?

I am sick of our so-called leaders, who cannot put the good of the country before their own egos. I forecast that this upcoming election will produce the same results as the previous four, and that this time next year, we’ll be back at the polling stations for another ride on the not-so-merry roundabout!
