Most politicians are corrupt, worthless and incompetent. Party affiliation makes little difference. Why do you think we are in our current mess?
That's because most of them are stinking lawyers... NEVER send a lawyer to Washington.... It's an absolute conflict of interest..!
They'll rob you for the fun of it...
I think it was P. T. Barnum that said "never let a fool keep his money"...anyway, that's how most all lawyers operate... Never trust them to act in your behalf...they will ALWAYS check their pockets first...
