Serve you right!

On the moral posturing of many left-wing (and a few conservative) politicians:
Leftist politicians, unlike those of a more laissez-faire disposition, require an extraordinary degree of moral knowledge to do the job they advertise for themselves.
When a politician makes a show of his virtue, when he adopts the exalted language of fairness, compassion and love of his fellow man, it is a safe bet that he seeks permission to push us around. If you are stupid enough to think that Ed Miliband, Barack Obama or any other human being is qualified for the job, you may deserve what you get.
That we get the politicians we deserve is  moral certainty!
