Many successful politicians are "shameless liars."

Thomas Sowell is another one of my favorite columnists.  Like Williams, he provides perspective in contrast to the unethical types who dominate the media.  Sowell doesn't pull any punches in this article.  The quality of people we put in public office is embarrassing.  As Sowell writes, choosing these people is also a negative "reflection on us." The day of reckoning is approaching in Europe, but in America, too many refuse to see where this nation is headed.  Too many politicians live in a economic la-la land.  They believe, and the fools who vote for them believe, that there is a pie in the sky, a free lunch and a Santa Cluas.   Full speed ahead buying votes and short term-advantage and damn the inevitable economic torpedoes. "The long term lies are about to bite back."http://www.oaoa.com/articles/people-88129-government-liars.html
