Don’t they know anything, all these impostors? Don’t they know they can’t get away with this— Treating people like a fast-food meal over which they’re too busy to pray? Psalm 14:4 (TM)

I love the metaphor used in the paraphrase here. Treating people like a "fast-food meal over which they’re too busy to pray." I know I’ve made a lot of references to the current election cycle lately, but the psalms are full of references to leaders and their character.

I get a little miffed (call me a cynic) when I hear or watch presidential candidates – most who have made tidy sums and guaranteed nest-eggs provided by tax-payers – talk in the corporate "we" as if they are at risk of foreclosure and financial ruin themselves.

I hope that we, as sheep, are wise in picking our national shepherd.
