voting your conscience

A novel concept, especially in the context of this current impeachment inquiry, that is often not chosen by Senators and Representatives due to disabling fear of either not being re-elected by their constituents or reprisals on the part of the Mobster in Chief should he be re-elected for a second term.
Senator, have you thought about the possibility of voting your conscience as an act of true leadership?

conscience

One's moral sense of what is right or wrong, and especially how it affects one's behavior. One's moral compass.
However much that I wanted to vegetate and indulge myself while the cleaners cleaned my house, my conscience tugged at my mind, telling me to keep busy and see if they needed anything.

A small minority of people are born without a conscience and a similar number of people never develop one. Psychopaths are those born without a conscience and most sociopaths are not given a chance to develop theirs. And hence they are not bothered or remorseful about their antisocial behavior.

guilty conscience

A feeling you get when someone has called your bluff.

When you feel ill and sick to your stomach because you are the cause of a hurtful situation. You try to deny it to yourself but that feeling won't let you.
So, you go shopping with your friend, then go home and talk shit about them to your mate. Then your mate repeats what happened shopping, word for word to another friend and that friend then goes back and tells. BUSTED!! You should have a guilty conscience!
