It seems lately that this question is more relevant today than any other time in my thirty some years on this planet. But has the frequency of scandals increased over the last 5 to 10 years, or has this always been going on? Well probably as along as you have money and power, you will have greed. Usually at the center of every good scandal you will have women and here is my formula: (money /2 women / 1 political(man))=scandal. There is an old saying ”Dating two women, is like trying to drive two cars”, can do it. But Politicians juggle 3 women, their Wife, their Mistress and the public.

I know they are just human , but why do we listen to them anymore? Is this why they are dumbing down America and destroying the middleclass? So we will have no voice, America does not protest like to other countries do when there are important issues. Look at the War on Iraq, 85% of the country doesn’t want our troops over there. But were are the massive protests? We have become so use to politicians lying to us it is just a headline in the paper until it effects us. We choose just to bitch about it with coworkers, type a stupid article in a paper or blog, instead of actually trying to gather up like minded individuals to rally against the issue.

There are people in this country that have been so dumbfounded by all the scandalous doings of politicians that they actual concede. They say well if he or she had an affair that’s between their spouse and God. No you idiot! they are elected officials and are looked upon by their constituents to perform their Governmental duties at the highest standards of morality and ethically conduct. Not to pretend they are Rock Stars and fly all over the world with hookers and coke! Save that for the entertainers.

Well keep listening to your Government and drink your 10 glasses of water a day, Oh ya, that’s right the water is full of antidepressants! You’ll need them!
