15. God forbid a politician should lose his or her job merely due to malfeasance, huh?
After all, politicians have an entitlement to their jobs ... but the working poor DON'T.

Indeed. let's elevate the specter of impeachment to that of capital punishment - as though there were nothing more serious than firing a pResident or Vice pResident or demanding that the Speaker step aside and let someone else do the job better.

I really have to wonder about people who can be fired at will (or for smoking or whistleblowing) who work to defend the entitlements of politicians who have subjected Working People to loss of employment due to a whim.

Unreal.
