All the posts at Cafe Hayek are on target this week, go read them all! But this one is my favorite.
"So do tell: why are we supposed to honor such people simply because they are elected to the so-called “highest office in the land”? Why are we expected to look to such scoundrels to inspire us – to advise us – to comfort us – to govern us – to commit our sons, daughters, and resources to wars – to define us – to rule over us on thousands of matters that touch daily upon our pocketbooks as well as upon some of the most intimate aspects of our lives?
"In no field of human endeavor other than politics is success at cupidity, duplicity, deception, double-dealing, and general depravity positively celebrated and rewarded – and so handsomely to boot."
