I think we're almost there. Unfortunately no one in his right mind will want to accept an appointment or run for office. And whoever's left will still be running the country.

Regardless of Slick's faults, we have set an ugly precedent. Don't serve your country unless you and everyone you have ever dealt with are willing to be bankrupted by legal fees, and your past can stand the kind of scrutiny that would shame the pope.
