I don't see it. I wish I did, but sincerity is dead.
I know Harry and like him personally, but every time I hear him speak, I want to say Screw You, that's not what you said behind closed doors. But when I see him again, I'm just, "Oh how's the wife?, want to go hunting, how have you recovered from your illness."
No reason to call out friends. Yet every single one of those guys and gals are publically asswipes.
We don't have honest debate, honest and candid discussion, only PR bs that nobody but a few pollsters believe.
I wish we could implement Thomas Jefferson's hope of a revolution every generation, as it might breed sincerity. The days of earnest, sincere politicians never probably survived into the 20th Century and shall not manifest themselves in the 21st.
