Yeah, particularly the Big Chief in charge.He started off last year with a 1.2-trillion, so one buck has to be totally worthless when one gets to debt in the trillions! Almost literally.I agree! Some of them have no respect for money.

A politician must not have scruples about money. To take other?s money inspires confidence in one?s constituency, for a politician who cannot be bribed cannot be trusted. In the buying and selling of political influence, bribery adds the commercial appeal of being certain of one?s man; and a politician with a head for business will turn a good profit from selling his office many times over for there is nothing more costly than a favor.
In my opinion any politician that sells their office should be jailed and forfeit all money and property.
A politician must be accountable to his constituency, who are not the public but his financial backers. In this, a politician should be scrupulous to pay political debts, in kind and on time. In the final account, those who count do not credit honesty and integrity, but getting their money?s worth.
If I vote for them they will be accountable to me or I will vote for someone else next election. I have seen people with almost unlimited funds lose elections.
It's not only quantity of propaganda but persuasiveness of propaganda. They didn't get the right PR guy, obviously.
A politician must be willing to sell himself. A politician is a prostitute in a business suit, and if he must be his own pimp, so much the better. Politics, while not the world?s oldest profession, is not the less honorable; and if the race can be fixed by counting tricks, betting odds are the politician will turn up trumps.
I guess we all are pimps of a certain kind so that we can get other people to do what we need them to do so that we can get to our objectives. Politicians probably more so, as they have a much greater and more pronounced visibility than other people, and they probably are much more needy as well, especially for other people's money.
Dang! Sounds like they are pretty much a waste of skin and space.
I doubt you needed that to be sure. The demonstration of reality is pretty good evidence.
With that kind of confidence, no wonder the end results are as cockeyed as they are?:cry:
