The Criminals who are in charge
Consider this: 29 members of the United States Congress have been arrested for spousal abuse, 7 for fraud, 19 for writing bad checks, 3 for assault, 14 for drug related charges, 8 for shoplifting, 17 can't get a credit card due to bad credit, 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses, and in 1998 alone, 84 were stopped for drunk driving!
Can we beat this in Australia? I think the police here are trained to turn a blind eye when it comes to politicians.
Example : Premier of Victoria, the appalling Jeff Kennett, driving around crazed and drunk on our roads. He was clocked at 143kph in 100kph zone. When police pulled up the car all he could say was "Do you realise who I am?" before he tripped and fell, breaking the opened bottle of Scotch in his hand. no charges
Example : Premier of Victoria, Henry 'The Hangman' Bolte, driving on the highway specially built at taxpayers' expense from Parliament House to the little Bolte hobby farm in Northern Victoria, smashing his car at 110 kph and breaking his leg. His blood sample vanished. no charges
We have had dozens of politicians pretending to live in an electorate to be eligible for nomination (when in reality they live on the other side of the continent) scores of pollies getting living away from home allowances when they are, like Nick Sherry, still at home with Mum, and .....
Golly, I could go on for hours ....... let me send out for pizza
