Americans Confused How to Feel About Newark Mayor’s “Heroism”

Bad to the boner

Newark, NJ Mayor Cory Booker was recently admitted to the hospital for smoke inhalation and second degree burns after rescuing his elderly neighbor from a fire.  This has left Americans very confused as to how they should hate this.

Americans in recent years have been notorious for hating politicians for anything and everything they do.  Rightfully so on many occassions, but it has gotten to a point where even a show of heroism can be seen as a sign of weakness or unpatriotism.  As is true in the case of recent “hero” Cory Booker.

“I personally don’t trust a man who doesn’t trust the firemen to do their job.  Never forget 9/11,” said one passerby.  “I bet he started the fire just to save that lady,” said another.  Have we reached a point of no return in this country where politicians can do no right?  Yes.  Good luck trying to keep the ambition alive to help Americans all you future politicians out there.  They don’t want it.
