Another Scandal in Washington




On Wednesday, February 10 at 5 p.m. Republican Representative Christopher Lee resigned his House seat. This came about because it was revealed the congressman solicited a woman on Craigslist listed under Women Seeking Men. Lee in a statement said  "I regret the harm that my actions have caused my family, my staff and my constituents. I deeply and sincerely apologize to them all. I have made profound mistakes and I promise to work as hard as I can to seek their forgiveness." Lee is married with a son. Pictures of him bare chested that he sent to the women he contacted began to surface all over the internet.  In mere days he resigned as an indication of zero tolerance of scandals by House Republicans

The article is definitely journalism. All that was reported was facts and details about the events that took place and are continuing to develop.  The author allowed his audience and the reader to learn more about the scandal and provided them with sufficient information to allow them to come up with their own opinion on the events without the need of the author inserting his.

The CBT for Sin [Language Arts] states that, "mankind is totally depraved and his sinful nature is seen throughout history. We can see from the actions of the man above that even those set in place to rule over us are sinful. Whether it is Christopher Lee, Bill Clinton or a neighbor humanity is depraved and not only in sins like infidelity but in an array of things. We are all guilty. As Christians we knows that the only way to salvation and redemption is Jesus Christ and  we hope that our politicians can recognize the same thing
