Robopoliticians

I'm sure you have seen Blagojevich's press conference by now. What an actor. Seriously. He should have gone for the stage. I wonder how many hours he practiced that speech. Just the right tone. Just the right inflection.
It was a brilliant performance.

It reminded me of when Clinton shook his finger at the American people and declared, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman." So emphatic. So sincere.

Are they good actors or just amoral sociopaths with no conscience? Both men seemed to have no sense of shame.

When he quoted the Rudyard Kipling poem, I seriously thought I might throw up.

We have got to stop electing these shiny, articulate, robopoliticians. It just has to stop.
