We are often inspired when someone takes a principled stand for a cause they truly believe in. This is especially true when some sort of personal sacrifice is involved. Even if you’re not entirely sympathetic toward the cause, the act itself can still be inspiring especially if there’s a sense of humility present.
On the other hand, there are those who commit acts of self-sacrifice who are rightly despised. The fanatical suicide bombers to which so many nations have been subjected remain despicable in spite of their willingness to lose their lives in their cause. It’s that their self-sacrificial acts result in murder that they should be condemned.
Then we have another variety of those claiming to take a principled stand for a noble cause. These would be politicians who are simply engaging in political posturing and grandstanding in order to draw attention to themselves. Self-sacrifice is certainly not involved, and is often replaced with hypocrisy. More on page two.

Lamo a politician with principles. Next they will say they have morals,values and common sence
Good there will be less stench in air
What principles, they have none.
Sore losers.
Too bad this liberal democrats can not be voted out, they live in a liberal district that will never vote republican!
You have all just committed political suicide. You will be voted out of office ,watch and see
Yet didn’t boycott the dnc’s pick after rigging the primaries for Killary. Bernie would most likely have won. Quite the list of crybabies and people that let the wrong person get selected you got there.
Question? How many of these congress people might find that their Constituents honor the President even if they don’t much care for the man AND expect their congress person to do the same. OR how many of these congress people will cease to be same after the next election? Just wondering.
I THINK THAT IS GREAT BECAUSE NOW AMERICA CAN REALLY SEE WHAT JACKASSES THEY ARE AND SHOULD BE BOOTED OUT OF THE NEXT ELECTION
Just means less hypocrites to attend
