When I hear some people defending one politician over another, I wonder how long we will continue to defend the indefensible. I have said it before and will continue to say it; under this system, NO POLITICAL OFFICE HOLDER HAS CLEAN HANDS. True, one may steal less than the other and one may manipulate figures less than the other, but THEY ALL DO.
When they campaign, they spend huge amounts of money; money that surpasses how much they are supposed to LEGALLY earn while in office. How do you expect them to get the money back? They invested during campaign and they expect to reap the dividends when they get power, or have you ever seen a businessman that wants to invest and lose?
