Interestingly, I pretty much expected this answer. Yes, politicians are, in the
end, humans, too. They make errors and we need to acknowledge that. However,
being held accountable for what you do does not exclude that. The point is not
to punish for every little error, it's to be able to differentiate the small
errors from major fuck-ups, deliberate deception and corruption - which is of
course, as I said, not in the interest of a lot of politicians.
I don't think this is creepy, either. If you decide to become a politician,
this should just be part of what you sign up for - either accept that you will
be held fully accountable for everything you do and say, or don't become a
politician.
