Every absurdity has a champion to defend it. Oliver Goldsmith

Values 

Integrity first. Service before self. Excellence in all we do.

Loyalty; duty; respect; selfless service; honor; integrity; personal courage (LRDSHIP).

Honor. Courage. Commitment.

Honor. Respect. Devotion.

The preceding lines are core values - of our countrymen who voluntarily wear a uniform and swear oath to protect and defend the rest of us. In order: U. S. Air Force; U. S. Army; U. S. Navy and U. S. Marine Corps; U. S. Coast Guard. 

Values, specific to each, are inclusive not mutually exclusive.

Bottom line: Lives in uniform do not lie, cheat, steal nor tolerate those who do. 

Absurdity 

That the Democrat party nominated a candidate, investigated and substantiated to be the antithesis of the aforementioned values and bottom line deviant, to be President and commander-in-chief.

Ergo, not absurd but fundamental logical questions.

Q: Of what value values?

Q: Value of the valueless?

Values - frame order to lives; to society. Civility. 

Valueless - deceit and disorder. Uncivilized. 

Deceit and disorder - aplenty we suffer. 

Valueless lives, peon to President, who partake (in deceit), and consequences thereof (of disorder) - worthless (to civilized society).

Thus ...

Q: Worthless lives matter?

Q: Worthless President?

So ...

Q: Champion of values?

Q: Champion of absurdity?
