Here is what I have learned is required to be a good politician:
Pays his taxes on time, Wears a dark suit all the time, Never uses bad words. Ever. Has never been unsuccessful in business, Has never been TOO successful in business either, Never been near bankruptcy at any point, because only fools go bankrupt. Certainly shouldn’t be poor …should seem wealthy, sort of. Never smoked pot in High-School, Has never stolen anything, certainly doesn’t have a criminal record. That goes for illegal downloads, too. Should be well-traveled… but not first-class, you corrupt bastard. Doesn’t speed up to catch a yellow light. In fact, never got a speeding ticket, No tattoos. Doesn`t cheat on her spouse, or get cheated on, Should be married, because being unattached is wrong, Doesn’t watch porn. Never have, never will. Might be a virgin. At least, devoid of sexuality. No Mo-Jo. Mo-Jo is bad. Never got drunk and mooned a busy street, while waiting for a cab with his jackass buddies, Never grabbed some guy’s ass on camera (Facebook OMG!!), Has at least one university degree, 3 is better, and is probably a lawyer, etc….
Sound like anyone you know? Me neither. So who comes up with this crap?
