Maybe the citizens are the political joke

The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal Editorial, 8/14/7

Politicians are an easy target. If it wasn’t for politicians, who could we in a politically correct society make fun of – not many groups. They are easy targets, and they continually do things to make it easy for people like David Lettermen and John Stewart to parody.

Whether it’s hiding $80,000 in a freezer, taking free trips from lobbyists or being the candidates of family values while having a woman of ill repute on speed dial, politicians are a laugh a minute.
