A politician is an arse...

My loyal readers are probably wondering why I’ve had no pithy commentary on the most recent spate of politicians brought down (or as near as makes no difference) by scandals revolving around their personal lives.

Well, it turns out I don’t have to come up with one because Christopher Buckley has already done so.

I’ve asked his question before when John Edwards stepped into it so deeply he’ll never scrape off the filth. But there never is an answer, is there?

The other question, of course, is: why do we keep electing people with the scruples of Fagin & delusions of stud-dom?
