Think About It

Think About It
Think About It A Member of Congress was seated next to a little girl on an air plane so he turned to her and said,
"Do you want to talk? Flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow  passenger." The little girl, who had just started to read her book, replied to the total stranger,
"What would you want to talk about?" "Oh, I don't know," said the congressman. "How about global  warming, universal health care, or stimulus packages?" as he smiled smugly. "OK," she said. "Those  could be interesting topics but let me ask you a question first.
A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat  the same stuff - grass. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty, but  a horse produces clumps. Why do you suppose that is?" The legislator, visibly surprised by the  little girl's intelligence, thinks about it and says, "Hmmm, I have no idea."
To which the little  girl replies, "Do you really feel qualified to discuss global warming, universal health care, or the  economy, when you don't know shit?" And then she went back to reading her book.

Let us discuss the need for honesty and integrity as the basic principle of leadership. Defines quality leadership as a process beyond technical competence. Successful leaders continually demonstrate honesty and integrity as an essential element of their professional fabric; a lack of commitment to the principle renders all other skills meaningless. Depicts honesty and integrity as essential elements of human behavior that promote and support quality relationships. Defines honesty and integrity in the context of building trust and maintaining credibility. Provides a sound philosophy that increases the probability for long-term success and professional fulfillment.

The matter raised "legitimate and genuine concerns", adding: "My concern ... is that without integrity and legitimacy and honesty, and then Government cannot function. This must now be settled, otherwise it saps at the very heart of what is the highest office – and the highest office-holder."

Is honesty for suckers?

— A worldwide recession sets in when it turns out that a vast subprime mortgage system was built on a foundation of fraud.

— Government officials are convicted of fraud and misappropriation of funds and backdoor deals.

— Cheating is rampant in high schools and colleges.

— And in sports? The same deal. Doping scandals, cheating, chemical and otherwise, pervades football, baseball and other sports.

— Wall Street is being manipulated by corporate America bilking investors out of billions of dollars.

If so many people are cheating, how can honest people play by the rules and not be at a disadvantage — in school, at work, in sports, in business?

Do we need an ethical bailout to go along with the financial one?

Are you a chump if you play by the rules?
