The only addition to this statment to present my thinking is "Me? I'm pissed at the whole system, especially the voters."
The voters are the ones who allow this. Until people stop justifying these actions by saying "Well, Bush (or Clinton, or whoever) did it too." or "He only did it because he was forced to because the other side does it." or by the thinking that it's always going to happen it will continue and probably get worse.
I would love for most people to understand the thinking of most politicians. Most understand that voters are apathetic and rather than base decisions on what's morally right, they base them around what will allow them to garner the most money without threatening their re-election.
