Woman to Woman

You know, sometimes it's us women that disappoint each other the most. I understand that Ms. Pelosi is a mother of five, and a grandmother of seven. I also am aware that she comes from a political family, raised by a father that served as the mayor of Baltimore, followed by five terms in Congress. What I DON'T understand is how a woman that has supposedly nurtured children and grandchildren could completely throw away concern for their lives and futures by participating in the destruction of her country and the country that they all have to live, learn, work, and seek health care in!
Most parents recognize that their children often "do what they do, not what they say", and are aware that we leave those children and grandchildren legacies. I pray that my legacy for my sons will include things like, putting people before things, trusting God in all situations and putting him first, having a servant's heart, and being thankful and appreciative for the wonderful country that our ancestors sacrificed for us to live in. I have taught them respect for our servicemen, and pride in our history. We have let them know that there is no greater country in the world, and that is by God's grace and mercy.
How shocking it is that Speaker Pelosi will leave a legacy to her family of 'power at all costs' (even their futures), extortion is ok if it serves your purpose, American people are ignorant of what's best for them, that it's ok to make laws for everyone but the elite (of which she is one), deception is simply part of the job, and the Constitution for which so many of our founding families sacrificed their lives and livelihoods is merely a worthless piece of paper when it doesn't serve one's purpose. She has taught her family that work done in 'the dark' is worthwhile, and to malign, harass, and vilify those that disagree with your opinions is necessary. The tolerance she teaches is one-sided.
My sympathies to the family of such a woman.

"Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate." Prov. 31:30-31
