Politicians irritate me so much. there seems to be an over abundance of them who are simply in it for the prestige and power. Think about it, they get to wrangle our money for their pet projects and take all the glory for the "projects" they do for the area they represent. Now I don't have a problem with them working for the home folk, my problem is the lack of integrity and honesty from most of them. Why is it so hard to walk a life that shows these traits? I don't remember who said this but, "Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely." When men and women get a hold on power they seem to have a tendency to be crazed, like rabid dogs. Men are more likely than women to be out of control, but it works in both sexes.
We need politicians and leaders who can control the urge to "lord it over the people". That is why we need term limits in both houses of congress. Just like the president, they should be limited so that they can do what they are elected to do and then move on to other "things". Imagine a group of people serving with no personal agenda for long term employment, no more career politicians.
Maybe you agree or disagree, if so please feel free to comment.
