I care. Of man's many flaws, I despise hypocrisy.
heh, you must not even be able to watch politics then.
It is my obligation as a citizen to watch politicians and their programs no
matter how much discomfort it causes. What is most depressing to me is that
politicians so easily fool voters. Politicians are evolving and the masses
are devolving. This is true because we have professional politicians and
professional political operatives. When a high lifestyle depends on
successful elections and the payoff warrants the cost, they do whatever is
necessary to win. Those who have weakest ethics more easily win because
they operate on the dictum that all is fair in politics. It has become very
hard for a decent person to stand up to the ugly tactics of modern
operatives engaged in election warfare. The only answer is for voters to
think; to look beyond slogans and promises and
repeated-to-the-point-of-nausea untruths that through repetition become
accepted. Entrenched power is one of the uglies of our so-called civil-ization.
