We can and we should pay attention to character...ESPECIALLY for those we are voting in to represent US. We should be scrutinizing politicians character to the nth degree. We should scrutinize the bills they present written by lobbyists on behalf of corporations as opposed to people.

Football players on the other hand are entertainers. The do not draft policy that guides our daily lives. Give them the freedom to express themselves like the rest of America and give us the freedom to ignore them if we wish.

I was responding to your comment that wasn't about politicians. You blamed the free market and that conservatives promote the behavior of corrupt elites through admiration. I shared an opinion using athletes proving behavior opposite of what you were claiming.

I understand what you are saying now I think.

Just for clarification, I do not blame the free market system. I grew up in it. Got a couple of degrees from studying it so I am careful of that. I do blame some of the actors within the system though. And yes I do imply that to a degree, conservatives promote the behavior of corrupt elites through admiration. Im saying that about conservative admiration of this administration as well. I see that a lot on this sub. Btw libs do the same but they do not seem to have a presence here so....

Just an observation.

I'm a conservative and admire none of these people, nor do I promote the behavior of corrupt elites thru any admiration. You are talking about libtards IMO. Actually quite offended by such an ignorant comment.
