The truth hurts sometimes …

I have often described local politics like a reality TV show. I use descriptions like Survivor and Big Brother.

Don Martelli says Jerry Springer.

Springer, as you know, typically features people from trailer parks or the ghetto who are arguing over a boyfriend, girlfriend or both. There is hair pulling, spitting, fighting, punching, etc. It’s basically a full-blown battle.

Local politics are the same no matter what city you’re in. There’s a ton of grandstanding, political inbreeding, lovers’ quarrels, corruption and drama — boat loads of drama. What the political morons seem to forget is that they are in office to work for us, the taxpayers. Their Springer actions aren’t what we want. We want them to improve our roads, lower our taxes, keep our schools top notch and God forbid, just work for us.

Ouch.

But the truth does hurt sometimes.
