Corruptus In Extremis

I read news site and watch MetroTV (or TVOne) everyday, and all I see is Mayor Quimby. A fat middle age guy with disgusting smirk.

Okay, maybe it is not the best way to describe him.

He is well known as Mayor of Springfield in the animated TV series The Simpsons. He has one wife but numerous mistress and illigitimate children. He also has affinity with porn and money.  Although he is a fictional character, his behaviour sounds familiar.

His is taking bribe from Police Chief Wiggum and put “Corruptus In Extremis” as an office seal, but our judge, lawmaker, and bureaucrat has bring the word “corrupt” to a whole new level. Raking in billion and billion of rupiah from fraudulent, gratification, tax evasion, while the Homer in me screaming for Bank mercy.

The funny thing is, despite alrady admitting to wrongdoing, he has been re-elected several times. Even a witty catchphrase is enough to keeping himself in the office. Apparently, Springfield citizen was just like us, always fooled by gimmicky gesture or smart speech, is not even funny.

I think your time is up, Mayor. Vote Quimby no more.
