State rep. Joe Helfin says 10% of Legislature only "there for political

other 90% there for? Here Heflin plays a
fine example
of a demagogue as the word “political” is held to be negative by many. But,
it is a stupid comment playing to ignorance. Of course they are there for
political reasons, it is a political body and thus it is impossible to be
there for any other reason. This is another example of how “getting things
done” means agreeing with growing government and how opposition, no matter
how reasonable, is “political”, or negative and anti-progressive. |
