One side uses a distraction. It gets full media attention. People get involved. People get angry. People start blaming each other. Then, the other side counters with a distraction. It gets even more heated. This time it's personal. There might even be consequences. Maybe...
Why the fuck are you eating all this rotting shit those out of touch, self-absorbed, greedy, attention-seeking Partisans are serving you?
Because they're the people that craft our laws? Why shouldn't we care?
Yea, naked pictures of a politicant are vital to your legal wellbeing.
And that's how you took that comment?
I'm not a US citizen. I don't care for your celebrity obsessions and gossip. I just don't understand why shit like this is making news, let alone being part of your political life. Or lawcrafting... Let me remind you, we are not talking about making laws, we are talking about naked pictures of some dude...

Yes, and by giving it any kind of attention you're basically promoting this kind of behavior in your political institutions. And then, after few years you wonder why your political landscape is full of reality-tv-show clowns. It's "Keeping up with Kardassians" but with diplomatic immunity. And I'm talking about both of your political spectra, not just the one easy target.
