Arlen Specter Has Better Things To Do…

If you haven’t been keeping up with the whole “Spygate” controversy surrounding the NFL’s New England Patriot’s, consider yourself lucky. But here’s a quick summary:
1. The Patriots were caught illegally taping other teams.
2. They were punished.
3. Now Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter wants a special investigation done by the government because he doesn’t believe the punishments were harsh enough.
Does anyone else think that maybe U.S. Senators have better things to do than worry about NFL teams taping each other? Perhaps he could be concerned with the major “brain drain” that is plaguing his state right now. Or maybe he should launch an investigation on price-gouging in the oil industry. Anybody with me here? Don’t these matters, or any matters, seem much more pressing than whether or not the Patriots cheated?
Specter is yet another case of a politician who has absolutely no interest in the actual well-being of the people he was elected to serve. The fact that most politicians are concerned with things that nobody cares about is even more proof that our political system is flawed beyond repair.
