Politicians

` The lowest form of life on the planet is a politician. They don't "feel your pain." They don't care about you in any way, shape, or form. Their only interest in you is during election season. They will say anything and do anything to get elected. After they get in office they're only interested in the machine that got them there.
` I get a kick out of reading letters to various editors from people caught up in some candidate, claiming their particular brand of politician is better than your brand of politician. Politicians are all the same - they're politicians - interested only in themselves.
`How can you tell if a politician is lying? Their lips are moving.
`Why do politicians run smear campaigns against their opponents? Because they can. You don't have to look too deeply into a candidate's past to find dirt. Politicians live in dirt, they're politicians.
`Not that I don't vote. I vote. I hold my nose and try to pick the candidate that will be the least embarrassing to our country. The last two U.S. presidents have been nothing but embarrassments. We need to find some way of finding people for public office that actually care about us common-folk. The political machine that currently exists is broken.
