Today's news that lack of sleep affects moral judgment may explain the problem with our politicians. They are not corrupt, as they are often accused. They are just tired! Give them a bottle (of Scotch) and put them down for a nap.
Imagine, if W and his cronies had rested up, they may not have felt the need to lie about Iraq's WMD. Politicians in Louisiana, a state notorious for crooked pols, are not shady. They are pooped. All that partying keeps you up at night and makes you think that shirking blame or misappropriating funds is okay. Scooter Libby? Not a victim of the liberals, but a victim of insomnia.
So please, politicians, local, state, federal, or the Axis of Evil, lie down. Close your eyes. Go to your happy place.
