I love refdesk.com! If you don't use it, you must. Anyways...they have a thought for the day. Today's I thought was especially good at explaining what I consider the biggest (definitely Top 3) fault on the part of politicians:

"The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding." - Justice Louis Brandeis

Whenever you hate something a politician does, see if the above doesn't apply. Unless you're gonna be a cynical conspiracy theorist, I would say most political problems fit.

It was a given that whenever we discussed security/defense/whatever that we would get calls of people who wanted to share that quote on the air.
