If we elected these people on ethics none of them would be there.

To get there they must sell their soul to the devil.

The trick is to get the ones that sell their soul but get a little work done also.

If you take any sample of ~500 people, you would end up with a similar mix in terms of ethics as you see in the Congress. Even among us in this forum, there are some who are truly ethical, some who are self-righteous but not especially ethical, some who lash themselves for not being ethical enough, some who are unethical, etc. There is no reason to think our representatives are emotionally any different that the rest of us. Those who think most politicians are corrupt are often projecting their own dishonest instincts onto politicians.

Ethical Politician:-----:singing:

Watch Obama/Mccain/Hillary/Bush watch them when they're clapping grinning and bull*****ting, do you people think any of these rat bastards care about you.

John Gotti had more loyalty and ethics in him any of these scum.

Politicians are the lowest form of life we have in this country, they Grin while they're destorying America, and screwing you to death.

I am beginning to think that Left Wing Liberals are right, we need a dictator like Chavez or Castro or even the little Muslim Creep that runs Iran.

we need to even the playing field and let the common man actually make a run for office. We need to set a budget, a defined limit on what you can spend on a campaign and give each legit candidate a certain dollar spending amount and they can not exceed it whatsoever or it disqualifies them.

What about special interests?

Re: Are there any ethics left in politics?
 

All well and good but they would have to pass this bill and I doubt they would.

Re: Are there any ethics left in politics?
 

special interests will always be there. but if we don't try to fix the system then we might as well give up hope.
