Politicians of all types just love to promote family “friendly values” and project that sort of persona don’t they? I worked as a local politics columnist for an alternative weekly for time so I got to see a lot of them up close. My opinion of them is that they are some of the most sex obsessed kinksters not incarcerated or on the sex offender registry.
I knew one county commissioner who would wear short skirts and no panties to board meetings, and then do a Sharon Stone-type beaver flash in the direct view of the podium so as to distract speakers she didn’t like.
Then there was a police chief who was obsessed with prostitutes. He would tape interviews with arrested hookers and record (for what purpose or use he never said) hours of tape of them describing what sex acts were the most popular and any kinky or perverted requests they got from their clients in great detail.
And there was the angry Malcolm X wannabe city councilman who railed against the good ol’ boy white power structure but who would bang no one but white chicks, and who used a city police video camera to record his fun with. Cool eh? Yep, until he left one of his tapes in the camcorder when he returned it.
These are the same idiots that presume themselves to be qualified ethically and morally to govern others too. Sheesh. Go figger. All this happened in town of 200,000 in the midwest. No telling what freak-a-zoids must inhabit DC and the state capitals.
My point being:
"To be governed”, Pierre Proudhon said, “is to be watched over, inspected, spied on, directed, legislated, regimented, closed in, indoctrinated, preached at, controlled, assessed, evaluated, censored, commanded; all by creatures that have neither the right, nor wisdom, nor virtue to do so."
He was right too.
