Government officials who won&#8217;t do their respective jobs, scurring around trying to pull the wool over the voters&#8217; eyes?

Why would anyone vote for crooks and liars? This goes much deeper than a few desparate polticians&#8230;this is a cultural shift. I&#8217;m\u00a0 not getting fed up with the electoral system, I&#8217;m getting fed up with Americans &#8211; the ones who involve themselves in this and the ones who return them to office.<\/p>\n<p>Who would have thought thirty years ago that some Americans would trip over each other rushing to put the likes of Marion Berry back in office after his prison term? Who would have thought an impeached judge liek Alcee Hastings would get a new job as a Representative. Who would have thought an incompetent, racist boob like Ray Nagin would get returned to office after his pompous and arrogant failures in New Orleans? What representative would have been returned to office with 90 grand stashed in his freezer?<\/p>\n<p>In this day and age, what moron would think they could get away with covering up for a colleague who had paid off his lover with public funds?<\/p>\n<p>Americans have been so poisoned by the moral equivalence BS in the media, that we&#8217;ve all become criminals complicit in these crimes and incompetence by allowing it to happen time-and-again and doing nothing about it. We&#8217;re slipping into a government similar to the backwater third world countries where I&#8217;ve lived in the past. Our infrastructure is falling apart, politicians line their pockets and the citizenry stands by and watches pretending we&#8217;re helpless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Michelle Malkin finds an entire houseful of absentee Ohioans in Columbus; Something smells at 2885 Brownlee &hellip; <a title=\"ACORN shenanigans and American culture\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=4014\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">ACORN shenanigans and American culture<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46,28,5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4014","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-barack-obama","category-bloggers-and-stuff","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4014","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4014"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4014\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4014"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4014"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4014"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
