A modest story (proposal):
Interviewer: So, Doctor, as a dentist how would you describe your contribution to the well-being of your rather large practice during the 43 years you have been seeing patients?
Dentist: well, you know I went into dentistry because I wanted to have some affect upon humanity, reducing its anxieties and pain, and working for the betterment of all of my patients health. Probably, the best thing that ever happened to me, was actually today. One of my patients, a 5‘9“ swimsuit model, with flashing eyes, thick blond hair falling heavily to her shoulders, when everyone else was out of the room put her hand on my shoulder and said quietly, “Dr in all the years I have gone to the dentist I prayed for someone who will take care of me as wonderfully as you have. You’ve never hurt me, you’ve made me feel comfortable, and attended to my every need in your office. I don’t know what I would do without you.“ This has happened to me at least 15 times in the last three weeks, and it is just so gratifying.

This is essentially the same story the politicians are telling when they’re asked on Fox News what their attainment are. It is the most revolting, self-serving, gold gladhanding response conceivable. Now, if I told you the above story your eyes would be rolling out of your head, and for good reason. It’s all such bullshit. It’s actually embarrassing bullshit, and only a politician in America could get away with this crap. Of course I am referring to Senator Perdue‘s response to this question on Fox News. It made me want to lose my lunch.
