Situational Ethics. I remember the lecture well. McConnell, Rubio, Graham did not take notes. They just applied. Let me guess. They are republicans with some degree of misplaced oratorical skills. Im old fashioned. I think orators owe their audience the truth. Which does not change from speech to speech.
