I think the people we should really be annoyed at with politics is not the politicians themselves, but the general public that reward dishonest, political rhetoric. Politicians are just playing the game. Too many stupid people, with short memories, that vote in these clowns that constantly lie, spin and use other political tactics and rhetoric, are the ones to blame. How many times do you see politicians being obvious hypocrites and making assinine, exaggerating statements that contradict what htey previously have said, and their supporters don't give a lick.

The politicians need to play those games in order to be elected. Spin everything positively, make statements and promises that they think more people than not want to hear so they get the vote. Political mudslinging that people hear and just eat it up without thinking if its actually true or not. The general public that condones and rewards this behavior are the ones who are to blame.
