Nope, I got right in.

This whole affair, and others like it that continually plague the Washington scene, so depress me.

I find that I am still very depressed about this Cunningham business. How could these men be so corrupt in their representation of the American people. We look for good, and the deeper that we look, we just find corruption.

As I said else where my feelings about this entire matter reminds me of Paul Neuman's character ''Galvin'' inThe Verdict. His close to the jury went like this and reminds me of me and others that view this situation -

''You know, so much of the time we're
lost. We say, 'Please, God, tell
us what is right. Tell us what's
true. There is no justice. The
rich win, the poor are powerless...'
We become tired of hearing people
lie. After a time we become dead.
A little dead. We start thinking
of ourselves as victims.
And we become victims.
And we become weak...and doubt
ourselves, and doubt our
institutions...and doubt our
beliefs...we say for example, `The
law is a sham...there is no law...I
was a fool for having believed
there was.' But today you
are the law. You are the law...And
not some book and not the lawyers,
or the marble statues and the
trappings of the court...all that
they are is symbols. Of
our desire to be just...
All that they are, in effect, is a
prayer...... a fervent, and
a frightened prayer. In my religion
we say, `Act as if you had faith,
and faith will be given to you.'
If. If we would have faith
in justice, we must only believe
in ourselves. And act
with justice. And I believe
that there is justice in our hearts.''
