What is it about politics that makes people go insane?

I find it curious how some people have so much hatred towrds certain political figures. Clinton and Bush come to mind. Yet these people don't know anyone at Guantanamo, haven't had evil government agents swoop down on them in the library and confiscate their books, haven't been personally affected by Bush in anyway, yet they hate him with an unbridled passion. Same for some of those on the right..it was like Clinton was getting bj's from their girlfriend or something. Jeez people, live your lives..realize that politicians have a very limited influence on you personally, and get over it.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
