Politics and gravity

They say gravity sucks... False... Politicians do... Gravity is one of the forces of nature that always works, not like politicians, I mean really? Getting paid 23 grand a month and perks for four years and then getting a lifetime pension if you do not get re-elected! No wonder all the scumsucking bottom dwellers of society are getting on the gravy train!
However in the same vein I see at least in the Land of the Brave the system seems to be working, even if the outcome may have been close the people voted more than in the nail biter of 2000.

When the politicians complain that TV turns the proceedings into a circus, it should be made clear that the circus was already there, and that TV has merely demonstrated that not all the performers are well trained. Edward R. Murrow (1908 - 1965)
