#7) Politics without principle.

My intense apathy/disinterest in politics is only bolstered by its rampant lack of principles. Sadly, in today's modern-day world, the news is full of politics tainted by:

• empty promises
• hidden agendas
• rationalization of unethical/immoral activities
• corruption

The very last politician I admired was John Edwards, before Rielle Hunter came into the public eye. We all know how that story ended.

I seriously question if politics with principles is a concept that exists anymore. I guess I'll continue to be jaded until someone who actually has ethics enters the political scene like a breath of fresh air and proves otherwise.
