Politics seems to draw dumb and dumber. Corrupt, inept, greedy. What other profession attracts the dregs of humanity like politics? What other profession is so replete with detritus? What other profession has so many members working against the best interests of the people they are allegedly supposed to serve? In what other profession can people get away with breaking the law, attacking/crushing/annihilating precedent/protocol/tradition and flaunting it? Rubbing our faces in it? Altogether a curiously homogeneous crew of individuals out for themselves getting fatter and fatter off the duplicity and misery they conspire to inflict on others.
