clearly GGIAC is in the running for dickhead of the year as well. "I've worked in local politics and this is business as usual move along" is precisely what is wrong with the situation but of course your supercrapspactacular abilities as a local politician have nothing to do with the current fucked up state of political affairs in America. Right? Everything is gravy and all the legacies are doing yoeman's work at all levels of local, state, and federal government. All work exactly the same and have the same national implications. Right? C'mon GGIAC why don't you divulge your mysterious accomplishments in politics so we can have a look see at the glorious work you and your colleagues are doing. You want to have your good old boys screwed up backwater system in whatever backwater community you live in, have at it. But this here, until recently, was a real powerful nation capable of exercising the collective will in some very unpalatable amoral ways and one only has to be intellectually honest to understand "part of the why" is the insular thinking that is bred of nepotism. That you don't understand that simply makes you a moron and probably one of the enlightened 46%.
Piss off douche.
