223 Entries for “politician”

  1. Politicians are universally considered a bad idea, but we continue to have them anyway. Nobody is quite sure what it is they do, but everyone is sure that it isn’t what they ought to be doing. People get very worked up when politics are misguidedly brought up at family events, which seems like something they ought to apologize for.

  2. “So,” he said. “I’m a politician.”
    By then, I’d figured it out…the long absences, the wardrobe of suits and suits and ties and more ties.

  3. Politics become heated debates. Politicians get mean. But what’s worse than politics? Whats worse than politicians? You and me. This is all too quickly turning into a bad memory. Let’s not be politicians, fighting an endless argument.

  4. The man was corrupt. She knew it. And she knew he would corrupt her. As she lie in the bed with him slowly creeping up the sheets towards her, she wondered why she put herself in this situation. She was a good girl, she wasn’t like this. She didn’t sleep with politicians to further her own self. But her she was in the senator’s bed.

  5. Politician kinda looks like pelican if you’re really tired and only quickly glance at the word. Boy, was I about to write an impassioned plea to save the pelicans. That’d of been embarrassing…

  6. what a gem he was. what a gem, they would say. always on top of his smile, his hair, his manners, just what an absolute gem. what a shame, they would say. what a shame such a man as he would act in such a way. no way to go at all, they would say, simply no way to go at all. i wonder why, they would say.

  7. “I am not a crook,” said the man who opened relations with China, ended the Vietnam war, established the EPA, desegregated southern schools, and initiated détente.

    He was lying.

  8. Politician! Ha. Are you trying to piss me off? I’m not one of those people who hates all politicians, or thinks they’re all out to get the common man. No, I’m just frustrated with the lack of cooperation from the FREAKIN’ REPUBLICANS. Their whole party is out to get poor people by TRICKING THEM. GOD.

  9. the politician can spin his words.
    wind them around your waist,
    through your hair and over your knuckles.
    he masters words,
    phrases,
    knows all the loops.
    but when it comes down to decision making,
    to what really matters,
    does he really know what he’s doing?

  10. see before u
    i was my own politician
    governing my own land
    abiding by my own laws
    the u changed me

  11. big head in the sky
    he aint ever coming down
    he only makes his family frown
    upside down ’cause they love their crown

  12. most are lying cheating bastards and don’t deserve the money they have. they are not fit to make decisions for people because they do not live similar lives or have to deal with the same kind of problems

    tess
  13. She represented the country. She represented law and order. She represented justice. She represented rights. She was a politician.

  14. It is only natural for politicians to be egomaniacs, as one must think oneself capable of changing the world before attempting to do it.

  15. The politicians all stood around the room, wondering what to vote next. The issue was abortion and while everyone had their own view, no one wanted to be the first to voice their vote. “Well one of has to go, or we will be here all night” said one of the senators, picking at his fingers. “I suppose we could move on to another topic, but this bill won’t go away”

  16. They suck at telling the truth and thats all. I hate them a lot and think the world would be better off without them.

  17. Politicians confuse me. they have been elected to the good of the people they represent…but in the US, they cannot get along. Growing up we have been taught to compromise and be flexible…but that seems to be so far beyond our politicians today.

  18. I don;t know how many of these guys do what they say they want to. Do they ever beleive they can do what they promise they will? Are they all corrupt? How many of them out there can actually make a change for the better? Only their encouragement does nothing, but nothing can be done or changed unless they truly enforce it.

  19. Politicians are the monsters our parents warned us about, but instead of lurking in the corners and crevices of our minds they’re plastered obviously for us on our tv screens, billboards and newspapers. They’re whispering stories about all the evil elsewhere to try to deceive us, to tell us that they are just trying to help; those are the worst kinds of monsters. They tell us they’ll nurse us only to destroy us instead.

  20. politicians lie and cheat to convince the public that they are the best for the position they are running for.

  21. A lot of people view politicians in so many different ways a hero to one person could be a vile person to another. No matter who is vilified it is helpful to know that someone is willing to face problems that no other would want to tackle on. Politicians may not always have the correct motives but hopefully some are motivated to help the world and not themselves.

  22. Someone who tries their best to use rhetoric to manipulate the world around them in away that they believe will help the world as they see it. Although sometimes this may be for their own benefit they try their best to be seen publicly as positive.

  23. Dirty politicians with their back handed schemes. Making up rules for everything that we dream. Everything isn’t what it seems and this is why. Most politicians you see can be sly. Slick with words they remind me of me, but they will never have the same perspective of me. Subjective point of views. If you thought the world is straight forward you’ve misconstrued the truth.

  24. Cut throat devil, tearing down trees in his path, he’s a villain disguised as a savior to his people. He sinks his teeth into anything and anyone that might one day lay their body down before him, acting as a footstool so that he may stand even higher above the world. His mind is brilliant, daring and foolish and he snakes his way into the citizen’s minds, leaving them brain dead and groveling at his perfectly polished shoes, reaching for his selfish hands that only ever take, and rarely give. He’s a sweetly wrapped lie who’s adored and despised.

  25. I’m not sure what to think about politicians; especially during the election. You’re never quite positive if they’re telling the truth or lies for people to vote for them. And then there’s the judgemental aspect of it all. If you are so and so, and believe in so and so, somebody will judge you for it no matter what.

  26. Politicians are the scum of the Earth, and are the lowest know forms of life. They may look, talk, and sometimes even act like normal humans, but they are merely the shells of actual men and women. They exist to make people’s life miserable, and to stunt humanity’s progress. They feed on mortal souls.

  27. Being a reader is antithetical to being in power. Perhaps this is why most politicians don’t deeply understand the issues they make decisions about. When you’re telling others what to do, you simply don’t have the time or energy left to just absorb others’ wisdom. But then, the world needs readers, and it needs deciders.

  28. Politicians told me that I couldn’t hold you in my hand
    Like the paperweight my mom gave me when I was little
    Because I opened the screen window wide
    So the wind could blow through my hair
    And eyelashes
    But my papers scattered everywhere.

  29. politician
    politicians may mean well, but they’re all liars.
    Some may not lie about some things, but they’re all liars.
    But now that I think about it, everyone’s a liar.
    Is everyone then a politician?
    Preaching and promoting what they think is right?
    Promting and promising what they want? what makes them money?
    Everyone is a scumbag, lying, politician.

  30. I would not like to be a politician. I have an opinion. It’s not a popular one and it changes. I don’t want everything I say, write, and do put before the public to be combed over. I’ve made mistakes and I own them. They are my mistakes.

  31. The politicians drive me absolutely nuts. I thought to myself as I glared at the tv after a long day of work. All they have to say is complete shit. They don’t care about me and my struggles. all they care about is the money in my back pocket.

  32. He wants to be a politician. I mean, really? Like, who wants to be a politician? Single twenty-year-olds want to be politicians. He’s pushing fifty!

  33. Easy to like
    Easy to hate
    Crooked or
    just enabled?

  34. the politician stood up amongst the passionate people, rioting for what they believe. well what they believe is worng. i am right, and that’s it. I will not back down. They will love who I tell them to love. I am in charge here.

  35. He stood at the front of the room, loud, boisterous, arms waving too and fro with the intonations of his phrases. He rocked the podium with the energy he projected at the mindless crowd. Beside him, in the background stood a woman with brown glasses, looking on with passivity, but observing every moment with clarity. It was to her that he looked whenever his words began to falter.

  36. politician is a dirty word. and deceiving. even the best are crooked. at least from what i know. which is only what i have heard. perhahps the people i listen to are just as crooked as the politicians are. i dunno. but i like Obama. I don’t know everything or even much. sounds silly doesn’t it. i am thrilled that the public voted a black president in. the world is changing

  37. The politician was shot by the same gun that we retrieved from your apartment. You were trying to use him, to get him to do as you wished but when your little agreement went south you decided to take matters into your own hands. I can see right through your deceiving eyes, you can fool everyone but me. You lied to me. You lied to everyone.

  38. Politics are completely stupid. I think that government is a huge joke and no one even understands what exactly the government is doing for us. Neither do they care. People are ignorant, and that highly upsets me. The world is a sad, uneducated place and people need to start learning how to take part in their lives by getting involved in politics.

  39. Someone who works for the government. A lot of times corrupted by the greed and power of money and position. Someone who likes to control others. Someone who is not so kind. Normally a man.

  40. Political Pelican was a fine fellow. He likes water lilies and fish and seafaring snakes. He wasn’t too fond of raindrops, however. One evening, as he flew, the rain fell. Political Pelican stopped flying right then.
    “I won’t fly another meter until you yield! I deserve THIS!” He began to shout.
    And he drowned.
