Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken

And politicians trying to rise above the fray do not make them different or exceptional.

I don’t want politicians to play nice.

I don’t want them to get along.

I want a Giuliani opponent to call him a cocksucker.

I want a Hillary opponent to call her a cunt.

I want unfounded accusations, immature finger-pointing, needless backstabbing and blatant suckholing – all things we expect from our leaders.

And don’t kid yourself into thinking that Americans, compared to other world leaders, are above such pettiness. We don’t play nice – never have, never will, so why should be expect our politicians to rise above such petulant behavior.

You want civility, host a Tupperware party.

Politics has always been dirty and brutal – from Caesar to Kennedy, the wet work never ends.

Cruelty and the willingness to stomp on your opponent until only a mushy pulp is left is how you win.

And if you think things were nasty in the past, we’re in for a treat this year.

C’mon folks, we have a font-row seat, enjoy.
