Power and responsibility
This is what I love about power. All the weaseling.
Tony Blair used to be a democratically-elected leader I could really respect. But watching this interview, I think I realize, now, that power now and forever means never having to admit when you are wrong or even that you might be wrong. I have no more faith in this process or these people, except to look after their own asses every single time. I am seriously considering not voting this election, I am so disgusted with how dishonest this process is, at this point.
The only saving grace is that all of these folks eventually fall. And until they give up the obsession with power to solve all of our problems, they will fall hard.
Little bit of justice in that thought.
We could do better. But we'd have to stop being such pricks.
Until then, instant karma's gonna get you.
No matter how much power you grab.
