A Decent Democratic Senator . . . An Oxymoron

Last night while struggling to find some news that wasn’t about the Kavanaugh ambush, my wife said, “I wouldn’t want to be in their shoes on judgement day!” I thought, “spoken like an honest, decent, compassionate, Christian person.” The problem here is that most of Judge Kavanaugh’s opposition does not believe in the same set of mores and certainly does not have the same set of standards as either my wife, myself, or Brett Kavanaugh.

Now I realize that some of you will say, “Politics is a tough profession.” And “If you can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen!” Etc. Etc.
Yes, I agree that politics is a tough game, and those with thin skin should not be players in that game. However, Judge Kavanaugh is not a politician. He is a family man who just happens to be a judge.
There was an article in the Wall Street Journal this week elucidating the sad state of the Democratic Party (“Why Is the Left Consumed With Hate”). My response as to why they are attacking a good and decent man is that they no longer seem to stand for anything, and so they apparently have no option other than slandering and belittling those who are deemed to be on the other side.
I have to ask, “Do they have any principles at all?”
Is attaching the character of an honorable man okay with them? Apparently, yes!
Is searching for and finding “political prostitutes” who will say just about anything okay with them? Apparently, yes!
I have to further ask:
Is there any Democrat in the U.S. Senate who has a shred of decency or a shred of moral fiber?
Is there anyone on the Democratic side of the Senate who has the balls to say, “Stop! Enough is enough!”?
Is there one decent Democrat in the U.S. Senate who will stand up and vote for the confirmation of a good and decent man, Judge Kavanaugh?
A pseudo-paraphrase from God to Abraham in Genesis seems apropos at this time: “If I find one decent Democrat in the U.S.Senate, that will be enough!”
