Stand by the Conviction of Your Words

Representative Tom Price (R-GA) has an op-ed piece in the Washington Times titled When government flounders.

The piece is peppered with words and phrases which could lead one to believe that the man truly thinks that personal responsibility, individual actions and freedom are the cornerstones of American success.

Throughout our history, America has been guided to prosperity and strength by virtues of individual responsibility, optimism and accomplishment.

Or this.

There is an alternative to this Washington-knows-best philosophy. There are those who are committed to stopping the growth of bureaucracy and restoring faith in ourselves. The current leadership void allows for the opportunity to successfully work toward a government that puts people first and restores the trust of the American people. We need to assert our proud heritage and reaffirm American self-reliance. Our culture and our ideals will lead us forward not politicians in Washington.

Unfortunately, I think Mr. Price’s written words, as encouraging as they may be, are sorely lacking in conviction, and as soon as tomorrow’s edition of the Times hits the streets, they will be forgotten.
