Politicians are people just like us. I know that might sound like, "No shit, Sherlock," or "You can't be serious." It's also true that many politicians are wealthy and begin life with many advantages over average Americans.
But politicians have the same propensity for stupid acts as we do. Because they live much of their lives in public, when they make mistakes and get caught lying, everybody knows about it. They do the same stupid things that average Americans do but, since they got their jobs by election, their transgressions get more publicity and they suffer immediately.
George Carlin was a great political satirist. Bill Maher is not qualified to be his dishwasher, chauffeur, or caddy. Carlin said, politicians live in our communities, go to our schools, shop at the same stores we do, or have their secretary's do those things for them. But they come from the same places that we do. The only difference being that their jobs are public.
When Joe and Mary Smith cheat on their college exams, bang their secretary's or babysitters, or forge documents, only the people they work with or for, the babysitters parents, or each other, if they are cheating, gives a damn. But when Senator, Representative, or Governor Smith cheats on his wife, hires an illegal immigrant, bangs his secretary, babysitter or intern, the whole world knows about it.
Politicians also have a hell of a lot more money than we do. They use our money to give their lobbyist friends bridges and roads that only ten people use. We give them their jobs with our votes. We should monitor their performance closely (Chris Christie) and vote accordingly in the future. If we don't, we have only ourselves to blame.
